Loading... Homo Sacer: Sovereign Power and Bare Lifeby Giorgio Agamben
Sign up for LibraryThing to find out whether you'll like this book. No current Talk conversations about this book. Superb. Considering his contemporaries, I expected to get utterly confused. As it happens, it was a beautifully written and incredibly clear work of grace and eloquence. Even if his analysis isn't to be agreed with (jury is still out for me), the historical and etymological information is rivitting. This book's English translation had *just* enough time to raise eyebrows in academia before September 2001... and, since then, it's become practically impossible to escape it. It's helpful to reread the final chapter of the introductory volume to Foucault's History of Sexuality alongside Homo Sacer; for those interested in political theology, bring your Carl Schmitt. It's not the easiest book to read, but it's worth it if only so you won't feel nervous when someone else refers to it in your graduate seminar. no reviews | add a review
References to this work on external resources. Wikipedia in English (4)Amazon.com Product Description (ISBN 0804732183, Paperback)The work of Giorgio Agamben, one of Italy's most important and original philosophers, has been based on an uncommon erudition in classical traditions of philosophy and rhetoric, the grammarians of late antiquity, Christian theology, and modern philosophy. Recently, Agamben has begun to direct his thinking to the constitution of the social and to some concrete, ethico-political conclusions concerning the state of society today, and the place of the individual within it. In Homo Sacer, Agamben aims to connect the problem of pure possibility, potentiality, and power with the problem of political and social ethics in a context where the latter has lost its previous religious, metaphysical, and cultural grounding. Taking his cue from Foucault's fragmentary analysis of biopolitics, Agamben probes with great breadth, intensity, and acuteness the covert or implicit presence of an idea of biopolitics in the history of traditional political theory. He argues that from the earliest treatises of political theory, notably in Aristotle's notion of man as a political animal, and throughout the history of Western thinking about sovereignty (whether of the king or the state), a notion of sovereignty as power over "life" is implicit. The reason it remains merely implicit has to do, according to Agamben, with the way the sacred, or the idea of sacrality, becomes indissociable from the idea of sovereignty. Drawing upon Carl Schmitt's idea of the sovereign's status as the exception to the rules he safeguards, and on anthropological research that reveals the close interlinking of the sacred and the taboo, Agamben defines the sacred person as one who can be killed and yet not sacrificed—a paradox he sees as operative in the status of the modern individual living in a system that exerts control over the collective "naked life" of all individuals.

Nice! lol! Tri-SLI seems pretty insane if it can pull off 60FPS like that! Impressive! I love my GTX 260 thus far it's been a true champ, and after $60 off my original purchase price (-$30 yesterday since the card went on sale, Newegg phonecall success in 5 minutes!, and -$30 for MIR...total price $239.99 shipped!). I can't wait to put it through it's paces with some heavier gaming soon!
Alright, just got the game installed, updated to 1.1 (I don't plan on multiplayer, is there any reason to go 1.2? seems MP based...). I loaded up your autoexec before opening the game for the first time, also using x64 mode. It seems like the boulder/rock textures are kinda lower quality or blurry...the bump map seems ok though. I can't tell ya if it's improved or not since I haven't run the game w/o it, but I suppose compared to the demo, it runs a little faster and the lighting effects are improved! The game looks pretty damn good, and I think your autoexec is helping with performance, I want to find a way to see what my FPS are in the game if it reports it like FarCry does..I wish my EVGA Precision OSD would work with x64 games!
Yes, it did seem like texture quality was lower. I just went back to normal 'very high' across the board, put 4xaa on, Supersampling transparency and vsynch. 25fps at 1920, I can't complain, and of course as always, Crysis is forgiving at some lower end frames, so, working fine for me. Silly to think that under the same conditions a 640 GTS could come within ten to fifteen frames of that, but playing at eleven fps isn't fun hehe.
Yeah but 10-15 frames in Crysis is huge compared to a lot of other games out there too, gotta keep that in mind. LoL I don't think my poor single 260 could handle the load you're putting on the 280's tho! Crysis is running good, 25-40FPS thus far in the first 10 minutes of the game I played.
Kursah you should update to 1.2 patch, I tested each cmd in the latest patch. Try the lite version it runs really smooth
Oh no Kursah, that's not SLI 280s. I haven't hooked them up yet; that's just a single. IF SLI I'd expect at least five more frames haha. Your 260 should do it. Just keep MSAA at 2x, Vsynch off *maybe on, who knows!*, and supersampling off or set to multisampling if you wish. I'm not using 1.2 either, so I hear I'm at a disadvantage?
Hmm my 260 feels smooth with those settings...I haven't had any hitches or any FPS lower than 25-26...usually closer to 30 with AA at 2x...I don't have Vsync on. I got the stupid 1334 error when trying 1.2 patch, found out I'm supposed to install PB to avoid that error I guess...so I'm re-installing. I'll do the 1.2 and 1.2.1 soon tho! Jrob, you really think I should try the lite version? I'll have to read the differences, I bought this card to crank graphics up in everything, I figured this 260 would have the grunt to do Crysis on Very Hi @ 1440x900, which it seems to..gotta say the 2AA cut it down, it played pretty good with 4xAA, but would dip to about 19-21FPS too..lol! I may have to OC this 260 yet!
The main differences is water reflections and view distance thats it, even the lite version water effects and lods are tweaked above vanilla veryhigh. Notice the reflections and fps hit of the two pics. comparison:1 lite version; comparison:2 extreme version Here some pics of me playin lite with 40fps to 45, lowest dip is like 34fps
eeep PB for 1.2 patch..ack nooooooooooo Dropping to 18-21 isn't a big deal. Try decreasing the pre render to 1 or 2 in your Nvidia or Nhancer control panel.
I got it re-installed, 1.2 and 1.2.1 installed...I'm gonna play a little more with the extreme version, it actually seems to be running better and a couple frames faster this install with the newer updates. I'll report back after a bit! Thanks guys!
What's the 'lite' version again? Is that the mod for XP/DX9? I'm starting to notice that no matter whether using 1.0/1.1/1.2 I get same performance. As with 2x, 4x, 8x AA. I also unfortunatley gain nothing from using the .cfg Jrob posted. It actually looks like the shading is dumbed down. I suppose I have to install the other card then ;moans;
you should have put r_useedgeaa equal to 4 instead of 2, looks much and doesn't take too many frames off! actually i have a strong feeling that turning the AA on manually is way more frame-friendly then turning it on via the options menu!
Nope, same almost as the regular, with some water quality, reflections, and view distance turned down from what I noticed. It looks like 98% the same as the "full" one, with a gain in FPS. @Shadow, I sure don't get free 2xAA, I get -10FPS if I turn on AA
If you want to use nvida's AA disable the cmd r_UseEdgeAA=2 in my autoexec. The folders specify xp users or vista for both version Jeno, i don't think r_useEdgeAA= goes past the value 2. Just type a cmd in the console like this; r_useedgeaa=? it will tell you what it does and the diff parameters..
If you guys want additional fps gain like about 3-4, add these cmds to the autoexec under postprocessing effects. You want even notice the diff, textures will even look a lot sharper from a distance. r_ColorGradingDOF=0 r_depthoffield=1 I already have the r_depthoffield cmd added just change it to 1
Which is the distance command? Did a final run earlier. Can't say I'm dissapointed in the results! Somewhere I gained 2.5 FPS! EDIT: Forgot that after the patches, forcing AF no longer causes texture anomalies on flora; so at 16x I got no performance hit..big YAY! for that; I couldn't stand the murky textures.

It was supposed to be Facebook's day to shine, as the social network made its entrance as a publicly traded company. By the afternoon of May 18, Reuters was referring to Facebook's debut on Nasdaq as "surprisingly modest," and the Wall Street Journal was saying it had "plenty of buzz but not much pop." As WSJ reported, the company's shares began the day at $42 and ended the day at around the $38 offering price.
This could be seen as proof that Facebook's stock was "well priced" to begin with—not a bad way to begin its existence as a public company. If there was any real loser, it was Nasdaq OMX Group, which operates the Nasdaq Stock Market and competed with the New York Stock Exchange to list Facebook, according to WSJ. Technical problems delayed the start of trading of Facebook stock by 45 minutes, Reuters reported. That left investors "guessing for more than two hours about whether their buy and sell orders had actually been executed."
Questions about Facebook's viability as an advertising platform aside, Nasdaq's technical glitches may have dampened Facebook's trading debut—its overall effect won't be known for a while. Other rising high tech players were probably watching very closely, and might not be feeling very confident in Nasdaq's ability to handle heavy trading volume. The sooner Nasdaq can offer a thorough explanation for the delays in processing the trading orders, the better.

Thornton Didn't Mean To Hurt The Guy He Tripped And Punched In The Face
When forward Shawn Thornton tripped Brooks Orpik and repeatedly punched him in the head
When forward Shawn Thornton tripped Brooks Orpik and repeatedly punched him in the head
Brad Marchand was tripped in front of the Bruins bench and, as he skated by, James Neal drove his knee right through Marchand's head. Play stopped shortly thereafter and Bruins teammates converged on several Penguins, including Brooks Orpik. Earlier, Orpik knocked Louis Eriksson out of the game on his first shift.
For me, the exclamation point really seals this. But "concussion" is too specific for hockey injuries. A more accurate sign would probably be something like "I want my sex to give you a lower body injury." Something like that.
Penguins center and Russia's most eligible bachelor
Thanks to @FiveForBoarding for this video of a Penguins ice girl cleaning up hats after Jussi Jokinen's third goal. Who will clean up the ice girl?
A "battle of the bands" at a suburban Pittsburgh bar became the scene of a triple stabbing at the hands of two dudes who allegedly don't care much for the city's sports teams, according to police.
So says Pittsburgh Tribune-Review columnist Dejan Kovacevic, who broke the news last night:
Despite rumors to the contrary
The Bruins have been salting the earth behind them
The Boston Bruins will welcome the winner of the Chicago-L.A. series to the Stanley Cup Final because of their utter dismantling of the Pittsburgh Penguins. In that series, the Bruins were able to stonewall a Pittsburgh team that won 75 percent of its regular season games and led the league in scoring by a healthy…
In the words of Doc Emrick, Gregory Campbell was "shaken up" after he lay down to block Evgeni Malkin's slap shot during a Penguins power play in last night's second period. Hobbling and barely able to move, Campbell played on for another minute or so, at one point nearly stealing the puck on a lazy pass from Kris…
One cannot easily diagnose traumatic brain injury by way of a television feed—some big hits can be harmless, and some small ones can pack an unexpected punch. But, watching on TV last night, it was hard to think Penguins defenseman Brooks Orpik, whose head was rammed into the glass by 228-pound Bruin Milan Lucic…
I'm a sucker for a well-produced pregame video. A few nicely timed cuts here, a couple of dramatic gazes there, and a haunting score to tie it all together can make me feel like I'm about to watch the most important sporting event history (I'm pretty sure I have watched this one more than a dozen times). So,…
In this longest game of the playoffs, the Bruins got off to a fast start again
It was bad enough that the Pittsburgh Penguins are getting completely, systematically dismantled by the Boston Bruins
This tweet comes to us from Dan Roche, who covers the Bruins for WBZ and was flying back to Boston this morning after watching the B's dismantle the Penguins in Game 2 of the Eastern Conference finals. It's probably the only decent joke that has ever been told by a pilot.
In 1990, Jaromir Jagr arrived as a Penguins rookie from the former Czechoslovakia looking every bit like the dude from that one A-ha video. With the 41-year-old Bruins winger back in town for the Eastern Conference finals beginning tomorrow, the Pittsburgh-Post Gazette's photo Tumblr performs a public service by…
When they travel for their upcoming road trip to Milwaukee and Detroit, the Pirates intend to show their support for the Penguins' playoff run by wearing Pens sweaters. But utility infielder Brandon Inge went further.
Between Eric Gryba getting two games for a borderline hit that resulted in injury
"Sandstorm" plays in the background as a security guard escorts this super drunk Pittsburgh Penguins fan out of his seat. Islanders fans in his section console him by chanting "ASSHOLE" as he gets booted. Jarome Iginla's number one fan has his playoff hockey experience cut short on account of being faded as fuck.
Everyone's favorite on again/off again goon, Matt Cooke, returned to Ottawa Monday night for the first time since slicing Erik Karlsson's Achilles tendon
And just like that Jack Edwards cashes in all that Boston good will
No. That did not actually happen. But for a while there Saturday evening, it sure looked like it might actually be the reason Malkin would miss Pittsburgh's game against the Florida Panthers.

Comments about M-Edge Supershell for Kindle Fire - Cobalt Blue:
I bought this cover for my two year old nephew and my five year old niece. They love the cases but more importantly is that the kindles are protected and can withstand the abuse given by these little munchkins!! Case fits well. I waited for this to be back in stock and am glad I did.

This is great for adding stability and security while handling our Kindle. Bought the Kindle for our 6 year old daughter. This makes holding on to it and preventing dropping much easier !It does add "bulk" when it's in my purse, though.

The citizens' group that formed two years ago in response to Adams County's reassessment of property values is offering to help senior citizens and others fill out their property-tax appeal forms Thursday.
While the day is aimed at seniors, all taxpayers who want help are invited to stop by, said People's Voice Adams founder Alexandra Escalera.
The event is set for 8:30 a.m. to noon Thursday at the Gettysburg Fire Hall, 35 N. Stratton St., Gettysburg.
"We're not lawyers," Escalera said. "But we will do what we can to help you determine if you should file an appeal, and we will do our best to answer any questions you may have."
This is the second year the organization is holding the event. Last year, she said about 100 people showed up.
Escalera collected a bunch of appeals forms from the Adams County courthouse, and said she and members of her organization will be on hand to help people fill out the forms, answer their questions, and help them decide whether appealing is a good idea.
She said real-estate agent Paul Kellett will be there, as well, to help people gather comparable properties to use in their appeal. Kellett had filed suit to overturn the reassessment. He withdrew his case earlier this month, but Escalera said there are flaws with the reassessed values, and anyone who believes they are over-assessed should file for an appeal, she said.
County property owners have until Sept. 1 to file for an appeal.
There were nearly 7,000 appeals the first year of the reassessment, and about 700 last year.
For the first time since the new values were put in place, the state released a factor called the common level ratio that taxpayers should take into account. The ratio shows the county's property values have dropped 18.1 percent since the reassessment, reflecting declines in the housing market, Director of Tax Services Daryl Crum previously said.
To account for the change, when a resident appeals, the county's board of assessment appeals will determine the 2012 market value of a property, then add 18.1 percent to bring the value back to 2010 levels - the base year of the reassessment.
If someone's property value would be $100,000 in 2012, for example, the value when applying the common level ratio would be $118,100 for tax purposes. Crum had explained that if the property owner in that hypothetical case believes their 2012 property value is $120,000, they should not appeal. If the owner believes the value is $90,000, they should.
How this impacts appeals remains to be seen.
Residents can find appeal forms online at www.adamscounty.us, or by visiting the county's Tax Services Department on the second floor of the courthouse, 117 Baltimore St., Gettysburg.
Crum said anyone with questions is invited to call the Tax Services Department, 717-337-9823.
Adams County residents have until Sept. 1 to file to appeal their property taxes. Appeal forms can be found online at www.adamscounty.us. They can also be found at the county office of tax services on the second floor of the courthouse, 117 Baltimore St., Gettysburg, or by calling the tax services office, 717-337-9823.
People's Voice Adams, the citizens' group that formed in response to Adams County's reassessment, is helping taxpayers, particularly seniors, fill out their property-tax appeal forms. The group will be at the Gettysburg Fire Hall, 35 N. Stratton St., Gettysburg, from 8:30 a.m. to noon Thursday.

Fay Canyon Arch
Sedona, AZ
Fay Canyon Arch
A hike to a natural arch in the Red Rock–Secret Mountain Wilderness. The arch was formed from a massive fin in the Schnebly Hill formation and stands close to the cliff behind it, so there is little skylight shining through.

I'm not the same person I used to be. Perhaps that's true for everyone. But I think in my case, I can be more literal. I used to be someone else. And what's interesting is that I don't remember much about the person I used to be. A nervous breakdown will do that to you. I changed my name. That's a very old idea. Change the name, change the thing. Names are important. Some days, it feels like I can barely remember the one I was born with. I've made myself an archaeologist of sorts, digging through layers, uncovering clues to the life I used to lead. Here are some things I know about it:
When I was three years old, they stopped an express train so I could be carried into an ambulance and rushed to hospital. When I was three and a half, a doctor examined me for suspected brain damage, and told my parents I was 'a timebomb waiting to go off', and told them not to let me out of their sight for a moment. I was in the room. At three and a half years old, I could read. And I knew what 'suspected brain damage' meant. I think that makes me precocious. Apparently having a seizure that leaves you completely unresponsive for over an hour at that age worries doctors. Before I was five, I had been to ten different hospitals. I had an MRI scan, and was too scared to stop moving, so they had to do it again with me under anaesthesia. I spent I-don't-know-how-many nights in wards alongside kids covered in burns, or with cancers, or any number of horrific conditions. My parents were convinced I was going to die. I remember none of this.
In my first year of school, I had another fit, got carried to an ambulance again, and thereafter every teacher had a picture of me and my medical history in the room just in case. Every time I looked even slightly wan, everyone assumed it was the thing that was wrong with my brain, trying to kill me. This went on for a while. I don't remember it. All I remember of the fits was feeling woozy and falling asleep. I had maybe two or three, and that was enough to keep everyone around me paranoid. Before I was out of infant school, I was a case study in paediatrics. Apparently I'm on a training video for GPs with my brain waves being measured. It seems I was a textbook case of an apparently rare brain condition whose two key attributes are being utterly harmless, and scaring the shit out of medical professionals. Essentially an unusual form of epilepsy that recedes with age. I'm told I should count myself lucky they didn't crack my head open and go poking around inside. So, in any case, I went through school being pale, awkward, and convincing everyone around me that I could shuffle off the mortal coil at any moment.
Perhaps not surprising that I was miserable. Or that at eight, I apparently threatened to kill myself with enough conviction to have everyone freaked out, whereupon I got sent to see a psychiatrist (very nice woman, M&S cardigan, got me to draw my anxieties like a pre-teen HR Giger). She measured my IQ, and apparently it was decided that the local school wasn't very challenging, and so I got put into a private school. Where I waited a couple of years, and then did the suicide-threat thing again. I don't remember either time. I don't even know if I meant it or not; kids are histrionic, and probably neither time warranted a headless-chicken response. The second time, the head of school called my mother in a panic and told her what had happened, to which her response was along the lines of, 'fuck's sake, not again, stop taking him seriously'. You can imagine how well that went over, despite being... well, accurate.
I got over it. I don't mean any of this as self-pitying, especially given the frankly astonishing amount of privilege involved. I'm just baffled that I don't remember it. It's strange to me that I can have a copy of an MRI scan of my brain in my desk drawer and have only a vague, abstract recollection of why. All the same, I spent my teens being anxious and depressed, and not really eating or sleeping, and sooner or later it was bound to get intolerable. Which it did, and at sixteen I spent what felt like six months in bed, unable to think anything, let alone do anything of use. Left school.
I got over that, and all the shit you pick up in adolescence, too. But it's only really after that, that I remember things. I ended up changing my name by deed poll. The old one wasn't doing me any favours. I was embarrassed by it. So I plucked a new one out of the aether, and started living it. It's a pretty common belief that a lie, repeated often enough, becomes the truth. The scientist in me rebels at that, raging in my head about empirical results and observed reality. But truth can be a subjective thing sometimes. I have scattered memories of my old self, human traces left behind, but they're tenuous and fleeting, and I don't go looking for them. Mostly that's out of fear that I'll turn over a rock and discover something nasty, something that I didn't want to remember. With huge gaps in recollection, I think that's a possibility, and I'd rather not know.
Mostly what I feel when I think back on myself, though, is pride. I'm impressed with the old Montag. I wasn't much enjoying life, so I built myself a better one, piece by piece. Maybe founded on things that weren't true, but time and belief have a tendency to solidify, and these days I don't look round when someone shouts my old name in the street. Maybe everyone does this. I know people reinvent themselves. So maybe everyone's sense of self, sense of their own history, is in part a mythology they've made for themselves. Their origin story. I spent most of my youth inside my own head. That's what I learned.

"This card is what attracted me to Tiny Prints in the first place. I saw this card in the magazine and knew it would compliment my baby's picture perfectly and I was right. It turned out great. The cardstock weight is wonderful and the design is just Beautiful. I love it! Thank-You!"
"I love this card because of the interaction the receiver of the card will get with it...having to turn it over to get the information. The cardstock weight is very nice and high quality. I like that it is square, just making it different than others on the market. And it is nice that a rectangle envelope can be provided for this card so the sender doesn't have to pay extra postage. The only thing I didn't like was the design on the card overlapped with one letter on the baby's name making it harder to read. But it is a very Beautiful card."
"This is a great quality and adorable announcement card. It's has to be for a little brother because you can't change that part of the font but that was perfect for us. We were looking for something without photos and very traditional looking and this was just what we wanted."
"Found out about Tiny Prints via Twitter (I guess since so may of my tweets were baby related). Well, I'm so happy I found them. I'm very much a diy type of customer, so the entire process was seamless. So impressed with the fast service and I find the prices to be VERY reasonable. Which is why we'll be using this service again in the future. Thank you!"
"I used a combination of color and black and white prints. I also added three pictures on the back with text out of my favorite childrens book. It was adorable!"

What an usual spring- an unprecedented March/April juxtaposition, with March much warmer than April. Plants, birds, and mammals have been confused, for lack of a better term.
On walks out and about, this spring has brought more surprises than usual, and spring offers up many surprises in a normal year. Case in point these morels found along our property in Westfield, central Wisconsin. I have never found a morel in April in Wisconsin- these were found April 22nd.
Native perennials have similarly been emerging at unusual times- our backyard bloodroots were done blooming for the season well before the date they are usually just sending up leaves. Timing prescribed burning here at Prairie Nursery, and for many of our customers was a big challenge- forbs emerged way ahead of schedule leaving a narrow window.
I'd be interested to hear what surprises others have found this unsual spring!

GreatSchools Rating
Teacher quality
Principal leadership
Parent involvement
love this district!!!! I can not say enough great things about this elementary school.... teachers are very involved and really care about the kids...
My son was transferred to this school from another Elem. in district and the faculty and staff were amazing! The Asst. Principal, Mr. Baaden, is extremely understanding and by far one of the best principals I've ever had the pleasure of working with. My son's academic/emotional success was the most important factor to everyone who worked with him and allowed him to excel in a school year which began as a challenge and ended with ease. The CSE meetings were difficult this year, a lot of hard work to get my son the services he needs, and his disability is stil not indicated on his IEP properly, but thanks to the help of the speech and resource room teachers, he will be promoted to the next grade and receive the additional services he requires as well.

The pilgrimage to Lourdes began with Bernadette Soubirous, the fourteen year old daughter of devout Christian peasants. Between February and July of 1858, Bernadette saw apparitions of a white-robed lady 18 times in a small grotto called Massabiele, near the town of Lourdes.
In the apparitions the lady told Bernadette to "go tell the village priest to build a chapel here" and that many people would soon come in procession to the holy grotto. On the day of the 16th apparition, March 25, the lady revealed herself as The Virgin Mary. During her ecstatic trance in front of the grotto that day, Bernadette suddenly rose from her knees, walked a short distance, and fell to the ground. Fervently she began to dig in the earth until a small puddle of water appeared. Over the next few days the puddle enlarged into a pool and eventually became the sacred spring for which Lourdes is now famous.
The Mother of God instructed Bernadette to drink from the spring. This spring of natural water has since effected approximately five thousand miraculous physical cures, sixty-five of which have been recognized by the Church. In the third apparition, the Virgin Mary said to St. Bernadette, "I cannot promise you happiness in this world but only in the next." In the final vision, the Mother of God revealed her identity with the words, "I am the Immaculate Conception."
Pilgrims to Lourdes today can drink and bathe in the same healing spring waters that have been flowing since the time of the apparitions, as well as pray at the grotto where the Virgin Mary appeared. The shrine also offers a full schedule of daily religious activities and services.
Pilgrimage to Lourdes takes place from Easter Sunday (March) to October. Every day during this period at 4:30pm, the Blessed Sacrament Procession takes place, with pilgrims carrying banners along the Esplanade des Processions. Torch light processions are held nightly at 8:45 pm from the Massabielle Grotto. It can be a spectacular sight with the majestic snowcapped Pyrenees in the background.
Rosaries made of wood, pewter, glass and crystal Bernadette can be purchased by Pilgrims to the Shrine of St. Some of these rosaries contain water from the holy spring. Pilgrims may also purchase a picture of the Lady of Lourdes apparition.
With millions of moral and spiritual healings taking place each year at Lourdes, it is one of the preeminent pilgrimage sites in the world.

Norfolk to Smithfield
Underway, at last.
April 11, 2008
Cast off the lines and got underway… at promptly 1115. We didn't get to the boat until about 0930, but then we realized that we forgot the salad and chili that Laura had slaved over the night before, so we sent her back home to get it. In the mean time, we got our propane tank filled-up and the galley sink unclogged. Barnacles had grown over the thru-hull fitting.
Ten feet to spare
April 11, 2008
Two hours after leaving NOB, we found ouselves passing under the James River Bridge. It's a lift bridge, but clears 60' when down. Not a problem for us.
As we left the marina, we found ourselves side-by-side with USSENTERPRISE (CVN-65), an old friend of mine. She was being towed over to Newport News for overhaul at the speed of approx 4.5 knots. Luckily we were making 5.0 under power, which after an hour along her starboard side, allowed us to cross her bow right in front of Newport News. After that we raised the sails and enjoyed 12-15 knots of wind. We even ran wing-and-wing for awhile, with Laura professionally tending to the jib sheet.
Motoring into the wind
April 11, 2008
The approach to Pagan Creek was directly upwind, so we had to lower the sails and motor in.
Swimmin' Hole
April 11, 2008
One of Laura contingencies for this weekend was for me to allow for some triathlon training time. So, just up the river from the marina we dropped the hook and watched Laura swim laps in her wetsuit for thirty minutes. Only two boats went by, but I'm positive they thought we were nuts. The water was a surprisingly warm 69 degrees, three degrees warmer than Hampton Roads.
Transient Dockage
April 11, 2008
The Google satellite photo is a little old, it doesn't show the new dock where we tied-up. We had a delicous boatmade dinner and then enjoyed some hand dipped ice cream in one of the marina's many store fronts.
I thought the dockage fee was pretty steep at $2/ft, but the docks are new and nice, and the staff is very friendly. They were understaffed and no one was there to help us tie-up, but Randy later came down to check on us while we were making dinner. Just prior to his arrival we had discovered there was no cork screw to go with our two bottles of wine, and we asked him if there was somewhere to buy one. He reappeared momentarily with a cork screw complimets of the marina, and rightfully admonised us for not having one on the boat.
Breakfast with the birds
April 12, 2008
Got undwerway around 0730, much to the displeasure of the girls. The is a part of Pagan Creek called "Bob Shoal" that looked like it might be tricky at low tide (1052), so I wanted to get past it with at least half tide. We tried to anchor at the mouth of Pagan Creek but the wind was blowing 15-20 and I was uncomfortable with the ride. So, we hauled it in and motored up into Jones Creek where we were sheltered from the SSW wind. We scrambled some eggs and watched an egret wade around the mud by the marsh.
Confused sea
April 12, 2008
As we unfurled the sails at the mouth of Pagan Creek, the wind was 20-25 out of the west. I only let the sails out halfway, but that was still too much. We reefed in some more and beat downwind at 5.5 knots with only 1/3 of the canvas out! After passing under the James RIver Bridge again, the wind was out of the SW 20-25 and blowing across a 2 mile fetch. The water right in front of Newport News was a confused mess, and it was cruishing our boat speed. I decided to bring in the sails and motor straight into the wind.
Ignoring good advice
April 12, 2008
Motoring into the wind, we found Batten Bay and Chuckatuck creek right on the bow. Laura consulted our cruising guide, and it basically said "don't waste your time going up this creek unless you just like to explore." Well… they turned out to be right. Batten Bay is really pretty, but there isn't a lot of deep water. We just wanted to get out of the wind and make lunch! No such luck. The SW wind was HOWLING under the bridge, and there just wasn't any place good to anchor. So… Laura warmed-up some chili while I motored us back out towards the James.
Sailing without sails
April 12, 2008
Back in deeper water, we shut off the motor and locked down the helm to eat lunch. Without any sails out we were making 3 knots downwind!
Cold Front catches us
April 12, 2008
The cold front finally caught us, winds 25+ and blowing rain. The girls were below working on a puzzle while we surfed downwind. As we approached the Monitor-Merrimack Bridge Tunnel…
(ASIDE: Merrimack? Really? Would Monitor-Virginia Bridge Tunnel have been just too confusing for the folks of Hampton Roads? Revisionist history. I've never been one to say the south will rise again, but I do believe in naval tradition, and the commissioned name of that warship was CSS Virginia.)
So at the place of the famous Ironclad battle there now lies a bridge-tunnel which creates a deep channel and water funnel over the tunnel. Today it was 2 billion cubic feet of water moving at about 2 knots versus a 25 knot wind. This made for 4-5 foot rollers and some slow going for us. The boat plowed through with a little dutch roll, but you most certainly would not want to be below decks working on a puzzle.
The waypoint marks where Gwyneth lost her lunch. She was fine after that though.

What is it about the bike racks?
They seem to come up every time someone has a bone to pick with LEED. So it was in a recent op-ed about public buildings designed to state-mandated LEED Silver standards--the subject of a preliminary report (PDF) on energy savings in public buildings in the state of Washington. I've been keeping an eye on the responses to this report, because I think we'll be seeing green building rating systems used more and more frequently as political footballs as budget-starved states start to rethink requirements established during better economic times.
In the op-ed, the regional director of a conservative think tank lashes out against what he perceives to be green frills:
Only 18 percent of the extra cost to make Lincoln Heights a green school ... was spent on energy efficiency elements. The other 82 percent was spent on mandates like electric car outlets and large bike racks, which did not yield energy savings. Those additions, while costly, were included not because of any real need, but solely to help meet the state's requirements.
This critique has some pretty serious flaws. LEED rating systems do not require bike racks or electric car outlets, so neither is a "mandate." LEED has very few absolute requirements, in fact--the main reason it doesn't work very well as legislation unless the law gives specific guidance on which credits must be achieved.
Furthermore, the credit for bicycle storage and changing rooms (SSc4.2 in LEED for New Construction), is a pretty popular credit to pursue--in part because it costs almost nothing in a building whose program already includes changing rooms and showers. The report doesn't give us fine-grained data, but the idea that even a "large" bike rack could account for a significant portion of a multi-million-dollar construction budget is simply laughable. And don't we normally put bike racks at schools anyway? That's standard equipment, not an extra cost.
With all that said, though, I think this commentator has hit upon a very important point: if I understand it correctly, the State has required that all public buildings be designed to certain standards (LEED and some similar statewide systems), based on the assumption that energy savings will pay for any added construction costs. But it failed to require any actual energy savings.
"The whole standard ends when the design is over," points out Mark Frankel, technical director of the New Buildings Institute. LEED and Washington's own similar programs offer "the potential for better operation"--but how the building is operated and occupied is beyond the designers' control. "There is this wide misconception that you can design to LEED standards and everything will be OK," Frankel continued. "LEED is not a code. It leaves a lot of room for misunderstanding for jurisdictions to use it as a code."
The report estimates that these buildings cost 1%–3% more, and legislators want to know when they'll get their money back: that's why they commissioned the report. LEED, though, is not just about saving energy, water, or money. Depending on the choices the client makes, it can also be about protecting people from carcinogens, supporting the local economy, providing habitat for wildlife, and many other public goods. Like bike racks.
While we can certainly look at such choices and see how they improve quality of life and might even save a community or a state money in the long run, we don't get a monthly gas bill letting us know that Little Johnny won't get lung cancer when he's 62 or that our bioswales will help prevent a disastrous flood in 2045.
No, it's probably not fair to mandate a whole-building design standard and then measure its cost-effectiveness by looking at nothing but utility bills. But the green building community has put a lot of effort into making the business case for sustainable building practices. Can we back up our claims with actual performance outcomes or not? Now that policymakers are paying attention and want to calculate their ROI, we have to stick with results we can measure in the short term.
And then we have to measure them. Apparently, building owners in Washington aren't any better at this than anyone else in the country, despite the legal requirement that they do so. While the report pushed some people's political buttons by showing mixed energy results from buildings that actually had data--along with a more promising trend showing better results after the first year of operation--its main finding was uncomplicated and apolitical: there's not enough information. Most people either didn't have a way to collect it, didn't know how to use the equipment designed to collect it, or didn't dedicate staff time to collecting it.
"Our recommendations were focused on improving data collection," said Keenan Konopaski, legislative auditor for Washington's nonpartisan Joint Legislative Audit and Review Committee (JLARC), which conducted the study. Such a recommendation is a tricky business in the current legislative environment, since state agencies "need to improve how they are collecting data" (which means dedicating labor hours to the task) while "they are also reducing budgets."
That's a bit of a Catch-22, though, since energy managers usually end up paying their own salaries. As the report shows, the building managers who could boast the most impressive energy savings were practicing resource conservation management in all their buildings--not just the new ones--and achieving Energy Star across the board, even in historic buildings.
While designers cannot have direct involvement in resource conservation management, the green building community as a whole could certainly do a better job of acknowledging that good energy performance comes from good building management--not just high-performance gadgets.
Frankel thinks we may need to face the music sooner rather than later. "Things are changing really fast now with disclosure ordinances," he said. "People are not going to be able to run away from that data anymore."
What do you think? Have green building advocates oversold the economic advantages of sustainable design? And can people working on the design side do anything to ensure that building operators and occupants do their part to save energy? Should energy and water tracking just be a standard part of every green rating system? We welcome your comments below.
I've worked with several contractors lately who would like to obtain LEED accreditation. In pursuing LEED, ee have found barriers to entry high, ROI low and overall "feel good" status VERY low. Typical of most government programs it breeds inefficiency and greed while promoting sub-par standards. We are hopeful of many international standards and a general rise in public awareness driving truly "green" building.
LEED is not a government program.
We installed these in our new house and they work great. Excellent product.

"Music gives us a sense of identity, purpose and time. It's important to remain true to who you are and what you do."Ripton Lindsay.
Choreographer, dancer and dance tutor, lyricist, MC, DJ, poet and writer...
Ripton Lindsay was born in Jamaica, where he grew up immersed in Jamaican music and dance. Drawing on many traditional styles, he began to develop his own distinctive approach, experimenting with both traditional and contemporary dance, soon incorporating hip hop and reggae into his mix. His fluid moves and generous teaching style proved hard to resist and he soon became a much sought after dance tutor and performer. He formed his own dance troupe " Nkiru Cultural Dance Troupe' whom he choreographed and performed with for nine years, before leaving Jamaica and travelling to the UK. Before long he was adding a whole new raft of dance styles to his repertoire including jazz and 'merengue'. He quickly became an established contemporary dance tutor working in schools and colleges, with youth groups and community projects. He is one of the few choreographer/tutors able to perform and teach traditional Caribbean Dances.
Over the years Ripton has worked with some of the top names including Africa Bambaata (Zulu Nation) and DJ Babu of Dilated. His work has included choreographed pieces for film and MTV and The Fugees. More recently he has been the exclusive MC for DJ/Producer Mr Benn and Massive Attack, Daddy G and is part of the Bristol HI-Fi Family consisting Daddy G, Queen Bee and Mr Benn and has performed at WOMAD Festivals UK, Glastonbury Festival and The Big Chill.

CORRECT! It's almost like the "data" the police department is waiting on to measure where the high crime areas are, when we already know where the high crime areas are; but don't seem to have a plan to correct it. (THE)

The number of people in Winnebago and Boone counties who do not have a roof over their heads or permanent residence, also generally known as the homeless population, is about 3,000 any given day, local homeless experts say.
The number of people in Winnebago and Boone counties who do not have a roof over their heads or permanent residence, also generally known as the homeless population, is about 3,000 any given day, local homeless experts say.
But the numbers released as part of a federal survey the city facilitates every other year in January, also known as the Point In Time survey, tend to grossly underestimate the actual number of homeless individuals in the community, experts say. And that makes it difficult to paint an accurate picture of the homeless population and its needs.
"The homeless population is a moving target. It always has been," Rockford Human Services
Director George Davis said. "Our best guess is to put together a list of all of the agencies who serve the homeless and have them go through their client lists and count and remove any duplicates. Without doing that, I think it's safe to say the number is 3,000. The Point In Time number tells you something, but it doesn't tell you everything."
The Point In Time survey for 2009 shows that 480 people sought services on a single day in late January of this year.
The problem with that number is it doesn't take into account the people who did not seek services that particular day, said Kay Larrick, executive director for Carpenter's Place.
Another problem is that the number shows a decrease of nearly 100 homeless in the area from 2008 to 2009, a trend she does not see in her day-to-day operations.
"The Point In Time count does not reflect what the homeless population is in Rockford," Larrick said. "It's a one-day snapshot of who seeks services, and we don't even know how accurate it is. There are people who don't fill out the survey."
Larrick and others get to the 3,000 estimate by adding up the unduplicated number of homeless people they come in contact with through programs and services.
For example, 1,897 unduplicated adults visited Carpenter's Place last year, and 1,307 received case management. Larrick knows from the Rockford School District that at least 1,000 homeless kids live in the county's urban core, and fellow agency leader Cheryl Rogers says Shelter Care Ministries provides services to 105 adults in its housing program, 75 more adults through its Jubilee Ministry day center and 247 children in its family housing program.
It's not so much a funding problem, Davis said. While the Point In Time survey is a requirement to obtain access to certain types of federal funding, the number of people surveyed is not used to directly calculate how much a certain area receives. The city gets about $1 million a year from the Department of Housing and Urban Development. Last year, the money was divided among seven agencies and 12 programs.
Page 2 of 2 - "It's just one way to demonstrate need. We also submit agency information and narrative information," he said.
For Larrick, the downside to publicizing a number that's so much lower than the actual need is confusion.
"The Rockford community is such a kind and generous community. When they know the facts, they respond," she said. "People need to know what the Point In Time survey is so they don't assume that it is a fair and accurate reflection of the homeless population in the city. I think it gives people the wrong idea."

- First-rate Italian restaurants are finding their way to Mexico City's Roma neighborhood, perhaps attracted and inspired by the name. Rosetta, which is both bakery and restaurant, is guided by chef and owner Elena Reygades. The setting recalls the capital's early 20th century luxury – Reygades' husband, the architect Jaime Serra, restored this pretty, Gothic-detailed stone mansion where tables are placed in a roofed courtyard.
The menu, which changes seasonally, of about 25 appetizers, pastas, and main courses, reflects the pan-Italy cuisine Reygades learned in that country and in London. Among the house-made pastas, the orecchiette (little ears) with pancetta and fresh peas is particularly delicious as is grilled sea bass with artichokes and arugula. Given the on-site bakery, the breads are excellent – the cannoli is, too.
One false note: some diners complain that service can be slow, or, at times, pushy.
The Centro Cultural Casa Lamm stands near the restaurant.

Why Bosses Call Us In to Their Offices
Reader Comments
As a union member bosses don't get away with any of the 7p's junk. Because if I am called into the bosses office I would have a union steward with me and the boss does not even dare try to pull any of this lame outdated behavior
With the economy as difficult as it is, supervisors would do well to think before inviting people into their office. A few words to preface the invitation would eliminate anxiety. And don't call company-wide meetings without letting people know that you're changing the health care provider and need to give the details to everyone at once.

So we're faced with a choice. Do we want to micromanage our schools for ideological purity? Or do we want kids to learn something — even, sometimes, something with which we might disagree? If we want the first, we should keep on as we're keeping on. If we want the second, we need to stop being so worried that teachers might teach the wrong thing that we don't let them teach anything at all.

This week, Guest Star Keith Allison commemorates horror's sympathetic monsters.
What weird little kid didn't understand and relate to Frankenstein? Who couldn't see the pathos in poor, good-natured Larry Talbot turning into a beast? Or Frankenstein misunderstanding the throwing of pretty things into a well? As children, we lack the vocabulary to express ourselves, and we feel frustrated trying to communicate with adults who are not evil but simply cannot understand us. There is a cathartic reaction to seeing this alienation expressed via one of these monsters. At their best, they could manipulate our emotions and tug on our heartstrings with all the melodramatic aplomb of Shakespeare.

Screen Editor alex remembers watching horror classics in Grade 2:
When I was in grade two, my school thought it'd be a great Halloween activity to have a movie screening of old horror films. They showed us the 1931 adaptations of Dracula and Frankenstein, the original 1932 The Mummy, and the 1954 3-D classic, The Creature from the Black Lagoon. At age eight I had not yet acquired a taste for the macabre. That came a little later, with my grandfather's old Chas Addams cartoon collections and the Edward Gorey "Gashlycrumb Tinies" poster my mother hung in her office. At eight, those movies gave me nightmares.

The Doctors' Own Kick-Start Diets
Oprah.com | From the August 2003 issue of
O, The Oprah Magazine
We asked three of the nation's top obesity scientists to give us their best (and totally healthy) two-week, highly motivating regimen.
We all know crash diets are bad news, replays of those fifties-era grapefruit regimens that only ended up boomeranging, causing you to add back more weight than you lost. And yet there's no better incentive for a long-term weight-loss effort than dropping a few pounds right off the bat.
Doctor-approved and packed with food you'll actually want to eat,
these menus will help you reach your diet goals.
The Confused Dieter's Questions Answered Once and for All
Are all calories equal? Is breakfast a must? Are carbs the enemy? Wonder no more.
The experts speak.
Take a look at good ideas and inspiration-doctor's orders!
The Confused Dieter's Questions Answered Once And For All
Are all calories equal? Is breakfast a must? Are carbs the enemy? Wonder no more. The experts* speak.
Are all calories created equal (i.e., do 50 calories of Godiva cause the same weight gain as 50 calories of grapefruit)?
Yes (although the fruit calories might be more filling).
Can you get addicted to carbohydrates?
There's no hard science to prove it.
Does it matter what time you eat?
No. If you're looking at 2,000 calories over a 24-hour period, it doesn't matter what the clock says when you swallow them. But the evening hours have a way of tempting many people to overeat.
Are four, five, or six small meals better than three big ones?
There may be a hint of a weight-loss advantage to the nibble-and-nosh mode for some people. Preempting hunger also helps avoid unplanned food sprees.
Does eating breakfast really help you diet?
Yes, according to a study of almost 3,000 successful dieters in the National Weight Control Registry—not because it helps you eat less during the day, but because it tends to make you a little more active.
How much exercise do you have to do to lose weight and keep it off?
One hour a day of moderate activity, like jogging four to five miles. (Well, you wanted to know.)
Is it true that a longer, easier aerobic workout burns more fat than a shorter burst of heart-pumping exercise?
It's all in the math. Whichever workout burns more calories is the one that burns more fat. You have to stroll a lot longer at a leisurely pace to come close to the calorie expenditure of a quick sprint—then again, it's easier to keep walking.
Which diet works better: low carb / high fat or high carb / low fat?
The most recent review of more than 100 studies on low-carb diets found no difference when compared to high-carb diets. Some people don't feel as ravenous on one or the other, but in the end it boils down to the calories: Less is more (fewer calories mean more weight loss).
Why are those last five to ten pounds so hard to lose?
Weight loss is like blackjack—stacked against you. As you get lighter, your metabolism becomes slower. And maybe there's a good reason those last pounds are holding on for dear life: Maybe you really don't need to get rid of them.
