As horse players and fans of the sport, we don't always pay much attention to the origins of race names. Some are self-explanatory, like the Belmont Stakes or Kentucky Derby, but others maintain decades-old names that have perhaps lost their meaning for us in the 21st century.
One of the premier juvenile filly races at Woodbine is the CAN-G3 Natalma Stakes, contested over eight furlongs (one mile) on turf. First run in 1965 on dirt going 8.5 furlongs, it was transferred to the turf in 1968, and shortened to its present distance in 1980. Over the past 45 years, this race has been won by not only a host of champion fillies, but also by those who later made their mark as broodmares. Among the winners:
•Jammed Lovely (1966), 1967 Queen's Plate winner
•Fanfreluche (1969), Canadian Horse of the Year in 1970, and dam of two-time Canadian Horse of the Year L'Enjoleur
•Rainbow Connection (1980), dam of champion Rainbows for Life, and grand dam of Breeders' Cup Juvenile Fillies champion Tempera
•La Lorgnette (1984), 1985 Queen's Plate winner
•Wavering Girl (1989), dam of G1 winner and sire Military
•Dance Smartly (1990), who not only won the Canadian Triple Crown and the Breeders' Cup Distaff as a 3-year-old, but also produced consecutive Queen's Plate winners, the colt Scatter the Gold (2000) and filly Dancethruthedawn (2001)
•All An Angel (1992), dam of 2001 Champion Older Mare in Canada, Mountain Angel
•Alywow (1993), 1994 Canadian Horse of the Year
•Pico Teneriffe (1998), dam of two-time Sovereign champion older male Marchfield
•Arravale (2005), 2006 Canadian Horse of the Year
So, who exactly was this Natalma for whom this race is named?
A $35,000 Saratoga yearling purchase, if nothing else, she was the blueblood product of decades of Whitney family breeding, although not bred by them directly. Her third dam Mother Goose (yes, THAT Mother Goose) won the Belmont Futurity against males as a 2-year-old. Her dam Almahmoud was a stakeswinner who, in addition to Natalma, produced a stakes-winning filly named Cosmah—whose son Halo sired two Kentucky Derby winners, Sunny's Halo and Sunday Silence, and whose daughter Queen Sucree produced yet another Kentucky Derby winner, Cannonade.
As a 2-year-old in 1959, Natalma broke her maiden at first asking in Race 4 at Belmont Park on May 28—paying a whopping $30. On June 5, she entered in an allowance race at Belmont, but scratched after dumping her jockey and running off before the start. Next her connections entered her in the filly division of the National Stallion Stakes at Belmont on June 15, but scratched her the morning of the race due to a cough.
Moving on to Saratoga, on August 6 in Race 7(an allowance race), Natalma finished third behind the fillies Warlike and Fair and Windy. When she won the second race at Saratoga on August 15, the payout was a reasonable $6.40. Still, going into the Spinaway Stakes on August 24, Natalma was a 9-1 longshot while the Wheatley Stable entry of Irish Jay and Warlike was the odds-on choice, likely since the undefeated Irish Jay had already won the Fashion and Schuylerville stakes.
The New York Times account of the race notes that:
"Natalma led virtually from the start, and Warlike ran with her to the far turn. There [Warlike's jockey] Moreno sought to go in on the rail but Natalma closed in and blocked off Warlike, causing her to scrape the rail. Irish Jay was fourth most of the way, and showed speed on the outside to finish second."
Natalma won by three-quarters of a length, but, to the joy of most bettors, a jockey's objection was upheld by the stewards, and Natalma was taken down and placed third behind both Wheatley fillies. For Irish Jay's jockey Eddie Arcaro, it was his first Spinaway victory, albeit via disqualification. Irish Jay would go on to win the Demoiselle as a juvenile and at three both the Comely and Acorn (and as a broodmare, she produced 1964 champion juvenile filly Queen Empress).
After healing from a hind leg injury suffered several days after the Spinaway, Natalma was set for the November 7 Frizette. In preparation for that start, she ran in a six-furlong allowance race for 2-year-old fillies at Aqueduct (Race 6) on October 23—and finished 12th of 13 as the 4-1 third choice, more than a dozen lengths behind the winner Cleo the Cat.
According to the Canadian Horse Racing Hall of Fame website, Natalma made two starts as a 3-year-old, losing her first start at Keeneland on April 9, but coming back two weeks later to win her final race. Preparing for the Kentucky Oaks, Natalma suffered a chipped knee and rather than attempt to bring her back to the track, the decision was made by her owner E.P. Taylor to breed her under a late mid-June cover to his champion stallion Nearctic.
The story, as told by Windfields Farms racing manager Joe Thomas and retold by Richard Rohmer in his book E.P. Taylor (1983):
"After the Queen's Plate we always used to have a luncheon party down at Oshawa. After that luncheon Gil Darlington, Mr. Taylor, Horatio Luro and I went over to Darlington's stone house and we sat down to decide what we should do with Natalma... It was almost the middle of June, which was awfully late to think about breeding a mare. If Natalma was to race again she would need some surgery on her knee and wouldn't be able to race any more that year. So there was a consensus—we'd breed her. Nearctic had just gone to stud. We brought Natalma home and bred her to Nearctic in about the middle of June."
The result? On May 27, 1961, Natalma gave birth to unquestionably the most influential sire of the 20th century—the great Northern Dancer.
Her second foal, the stakes-winning Native Victor (by Victoria Park) was followed by a full-sister to Northern Dancer, the stakes-placed Arctic Dancer who as a broodmare produced by Buckpasser the champion filly La Prevoyante. Her other offspring included Jacques Cartier Stakes winner Regal Dancer (Grey Monarch), Queen's Plate Trial runner-up Northern Native (Nearctic), Plate Trial third-placed Tai (Buckpasser) and stakes-winner Born a Lady (Tentam). Her 1974 Buckpasser daughter Spring Adieu is the second dam of English Group 1 winner and champion sire Danehill, while her unraced daughter Raise the Standard produced French Group 1-placed mare Coup de Folie, dam of two juvenile champions in France—Machiavellian and Coup de Genie, the latter of whom herself produced the French champion filly Denebola, and the former most famously the sire of Street Cry—sire of the undefeated Zenyatta.
Natalma, indeed a worthy name to remember.

Alternate Universe
An alternate universe (AU), in both canon fiction or fanfiction, is a self-contained separate reality coexisting with the canon series, but different in some fundamental way.
There has been only one AU shown in canon: It's a Miserable Life in Beavis and Butt-head, where we see what Highland would be like if Butt-head had never been born. In it, the whole town is a nicer, more prosperous place, where Principal McVicker is a calm and happy man with hair, Stewart Stevenson is assertive, and Beavis is nice - and most importantly, Daria is a happy, well-adjusted girl who volunteers willingly, and has a boyfriend from her class because Butt-head's antics hadn't put her off boys.
The alter egos in the Daria credits show AU versions of the characters for a laugh: Daria as a happy cheerleader, O'Neill in Vietnam, Kevin as a punk rocker.
Deliberate AU stories are seen more often since the show went off the air. A number of fanfics done while the series was ongoing - like Daria/Trent shippers in which they actually date - have ended up as de facto AUs due to divergences in canon, but may or may not have been intended at the time to be an AU. A notable exception is Kara Wild's Driven Wild Universe, which was deliberately intended to split away from the ongoing canon.
A system for naming fan-created AU worlds is described at Daria Multiverse.
Contents |
Types of AU
One can make a distinction between two types of Daria AUs.
Canon-based changes
In the first, the alteration to events is made only to events internal to the series—i.e., not to the larger historical setting of the United States or the world. An AU in which Daria does not come to Lawndale High but instead attends Grove Hills ("Regifted" and "Grove Hell on Earth"), for instance, is not assumed to be a consequence of a historical event outside of Daria's family; her parents had a choice of which school to send her to, and they chose Grove Hills. An AU in which an event happens later in the series, like Daria falling pregnant by accident ("The Longest Year"), would be similar but would be able to draw on specific canon events in its backstory as well. A great change could happen to Lawndale, like the town never being founded ("Anywhere But Here") but this would not impact on the 'real world': the show's characters are the only ones affected.
Three particular points in the series are often used as the diverging point in this AU. The first episode of the series in which Daria arrives in Lawndale and meets Jane, "Esteemsters," has received enormous attention and has been re-written many times. (See "Esteemsters" and Daria Fanfic - examples are "Victory Lane" by Brother Grimace, Iron Chef: Real Esteem.) The circumstances and fallout of The Kiss have also had great attention, being a significant (and divisive) moment in canon (see Dye! Dye! My Darling and Fanfic). Daria/Trent shipper tales that strengthen the crush into mature love and the entire Daria-Tom-Jane triangle have also been revisited on a regular basis, though the former less often of late - examples of this include "Vengeance" and "Out of the Slushpile" by Nemo Blank.
An alteration to the family dynamic of a character can also cause an AU: a family member may be absent entirely ("Malice of Absence" by Renfield), have a different job or social circumstance ("Jacob Morgendorffer, Esq" by CAP), or simply have turned out different due to a small change.
A popular subdivision of this AU are stories in which the sex of a major character is reversed (assuming the usual 50/50 chance of having a boy or girl with each birth); the John Lane series, Finn Morgendorffer series, The James Lane Chronicles and "Darius" are examples, but earlier tales along this line have been told, such as MMan's "Brother, I Asked for It," in which Daria dreams Quinn had turned out as Quint. It's most common to see a male version of Jane - there've been John, Jake, James and Zane Lanes - in order to see how the Daria/Jane dynamic would be with Jane as a male (and thus a potential love interest). Notably, when Daria or Quinn's gender is switched, the siblings are usually shown to have a better relationship than in canon, under the assumption that they'd be less 'in competition'; the Finn Morgendorffer series is a notable exception, with the relationship being far more vicious and ugly.
A specifically targeted version of this AU is the Alternate Ending, where an author will often rewrite the ending of an episode to show what they'd have preferred to have happened. One of the earliest, "A Desperately Needed Ending (to "Depth Takes a Holiday")" by Kara Wild, was to make the then-recent "Depth Takes a Holiday" fit into the show's semi-realistic tone.
Changed universe
In the second type of AU, a change to world history has taken place—the Confederacy wins the American Civil War, Nazi Germany wins World War II, etc.—and the story describes the possible consequences of such a change. "Gone" by The Angst Guy (Cuban Missile Crisis turns nuclear) and "The Other Side of Time" by The Sidhe (Confederacy wins) are two such examples. This kind of story is called alternate history or counterfactual history in mainstream science fiction. For details, see alternate history SF.
A subdivision of the second type is for the Daria characters to live in a clearly fantasy-based universe, either a crossover with another fiction or an original story. A key example would be the crossover "Esteeminator: The Daria Morgendorffer Chronicles", where Daria lives in the universe from the Terminator franchise. There are many stories in this second subdivision about Daria characters as superheroes. Various canon characters are assigned roles as heroes or villains, depending on their behavior in the series. "Legion of Lawndale Heroes" is the longest running of these, though "Lawndale's Finest" (an explicit DC Comics crossover0 also has notable length.
An increasingly popular type of this second AU is one where the Daria cast exist in a different time: "Rocket Girls" by The Angst Guy moves Daria and Jane to the late-1940s, "Import/Export" by Brian Taylor is set during Prohibition. Some fanfics move the show forward from the 1990s to the present day - or what was the present day when it was written - to examine how things might be different as a result of the change, such as "Daria 2007: The Girl from Hope" by The Angst Guy or "God Save The Esteem" by Charles RB. (Many fanfics have also placed Daria in the present, but not as an attempt at an AU but the writer's preference, as the show was meant to be "present-day" rather than a period piece.)
It is also possible to find two types of AU combined in a single fic, such as in the Daria Von Doom Series. Within events of the show, Daria breaks up with Tom early, during Is It Fall Yet? This occurs after Daria discovers that Tom hadn't included her in decisions about attending Sloane family activities, like the Starry Night Ball. In addition, the common history is different from the AU is different from regular Daria continuity by occurring within the Marvel Universe, making the series a crossover as well.
Fanfics will sometimes have the 'regular' Daria cast crossing over with an alternate universe: "The Other Side of Time" revolves around this, as does "Through a Closet, Darkly" by Brian Taylor. See Dariaverse crossover.
Attitudes towards AUs
In the broader science-fiction field, alternate-history stories have tended to support the idea that the present world represents the best of all possible outcomes in history. This view has been used in Daria fandom, too, though less stridently; Brother Grimace's "Victory Lane" is representative of this approach. The John Lane stories by Richard Lobinske, however, reveal a Dariaverse better overall than canon, as does Mystik Slacker's "The Butterfly Storm." Worlds in which events change but the overall pro-and-con outcome is almost like canon can be seen in The Alchemist's "Jane on the Side" and The Angst Guy's "Click, Click, Boom". Some of these, like "The Hallowed Halls of Fielding" by Roentgen, have the alternate universe drastically different to canon but with a 'normal' pro-and-con outcome, just with different pro's and cons to the mainstream universe.
Still, an idea persists that, as the series shows, Daria did more good than ill, and her removal would cause more trouble than her presence (e.g., "It Slipped Through My Hands, Like a Shadow, Like a Dream," "Daria's Addition," and "After the End" by The Angst Guy).
CINCGREEN once proposed a division of AU fanfiction into "organic" and "inorganic" groups. Organic AUs are those in which the divergence flows from a multiple-outcome event that is part of Daria canon, such as the near-accident Daria experiences in "Boxing Daria." An inorganic AU is one that flows from a unique event not present in canon, such as a car accident that takes place after the conclusion of the episode "Road Worrier," resulting in Trent Lane's death and Daria's mourning for him.
One problem in writing AU fanfics is the knowledge that the episodes of Daria were not necessarily shown in chronological sequence. It is commonly assumed that the episodes from seasons one and two show Daria's first year in Lawndale, seasons three and four (and Is It Fall Yet?) show her second year, and season five (and Is It College Yet?) show her final year. However, the episodes within each season are not always in sequence. Most famously, "Road Worrier" from the first season shows Daria and company attempting to go to Alternapalooza, a rock concert that takes place in mid-August (per The Daria Diaries) but is sandwiched between episodes showing portions of Daria's sophomore year at Lawndale High. The same problem is seen with the episodes of Season Five and events in Is It College Yet? Occasionally an AU fanfic incorporates the out-of-sequence episodes as still being in sequence with a tidy explanation as to why (e.g., "Deus Jane," by The Angst Guy).
AU series
While many AU's are one-off stories, it is also common to see an AU be the basis of a series of fanfictions. In the more fantastic AU's, these stories will rarely be based on specific episodes, as the world is highly different to canon and the cast may not even be at Lawndale High.
A few of the "canon-based" AUs, like the Driven Wild Universe, Jacob Morgendorffer, Esq, or The Hallowed Halls of Fielding, also have entirely original stories: either due to the type of AU or to personal decision by the writer, the events of Daria episodes do not take place at all or take place "off-screen".
A more common approach by many authors with "canon-based" AUs is to show alternative versions of specific episodes, and how they've been changed (drastically or with minor elements) by the AU's diverging point. Often, these series start directly with Daria's arrival in Lawndale (John Lane, Finn Morgendorffer, God Save The Esteem, The Jake Lane Chronicles) but can start later in canon (The Longest Year). The further the series lasts, the more divergent the AU-episodes might get until you end up with a wildly different end point (Finn Morgendorffer). Some series may mash up multiple episodes into one story (Jake Lane).
Alternate universe agencies and characters
Due to a widespread interest in sci-fi & fantasy among Daria fans, fanfic writers have created a number of organisations that look out for and patrol the various universes: often, they will be staffed by alternate versions of known characters. Several of these groups have become shared universe concepts, open to all writers: they include DELPHI (a covert intelligence organization within the U.S. Government on various worlds with inter-dimensional travel capabilities), the Corps of Ringbearers (a pan-dimensional group similar to the Green Lantern Corps and the Lensmen, but with a focus on threats of supernatural origin, humanitarian relief efforts and covert intelligence-gathering operations), The Agency (another pan-dimensional organization that acts to maintain temporal/universal integrity, in the same vein as the Voyagers and Project Quantum Leap), and The Foundation (mystical group trying to keep the omniverse intact).
A vast amount of original characters exist in these fics (for a DariaWiki list of original AU Daria characters, go to Alternate Universe Characters) and a number of them are either specific, highly divergent AU versions of canon characters, or a family member that only exists due to the divergent universe. Examples of the former include Judith, a sociopathic supervillain Daria who crosses over into other universes; and Lynn Quinn Michaelis, a Quinn distorted to ludicrous effect in "Joel Schumacher's" Daria the Movie. Examples of the latter include Veronica Morgendorffer, a third Morgendorffer sibling who is younger than Quinn and is irritated that Daria keeps forgetting about her; 'Evie' Morgendorffer, another third Morgendorffer sister who is unseen because she is a boarding student at Grove Hills; and Darren Appleton, a Morgendorffer sibling who was stolen at birth and given to a wealthy couple.
Several of the original characters have appeared in fanfics set in different AUs and some have been used by several different writers, becoming shared universe characters.

I absolutely love this! It was the first tinted moisturizer I have used and it will be the last. I love how light it feels while still providing enough coverage to get away with not having to put anything else on my face.
Loved this for winter time! Perfect for a fair skinned person. Definitely would need a different shade for when I get color in the summer though. Soft, not oily, great!
Did I say I love this? It is perfect for my oily t-zone, stays matte all day. Has great coverage, I'd say medium that is buildable. Will def purchase again.
I love this matte tint on my face. Keeps my oily forehead matte all day long. The porcelain shade is very fair so be warned if you have a tan.
I sampled this in my Birchbox and I ended up purchasing it from Birchbox. I liked the way this went on and made my skin look. It was not cakey and I really liked the color.
I use this product as a foundation and no matter how long you wear it, your face will never get that greasy look or feeling. Also, eye liner and eye shadows remain unflawed throughout the day when applied on top of it. Although the actual product looks tinted, when it is applied to skin, it blends in perfectly.
It's just the right balance between matte and not being dry! Decent coverage but not cakey. First foundation I've ever been able to use - most the time tinted moisturizers leave my face looking like an oil slick!
I bought a full tube of this after getting the sample. I love the color. I have yellow-toned pale skin and it fits me just right. More coverage than most tinted moisturizers, so perfect for those who are used to foundation but want something a bit lighter.
Nice product, went one smoothly with good coverage. However, I could not get the right shade. It was either too yellow or too dark.
This is what my makeup routine was missing. I just put this on for the first time and my skin looks flawless, like I just got it done professionally. I used the Linen shade and then spot treated with Boing #03…finished with a powder and I've never looked this good before. I can't believe I've never heard of this product before joining Birchbox!

The Shockingly Low Amount of Retirement Savings per American
October 18-24 (this week) was recently designated as 'National Save for Retirement' week by Congress. Historically, the federal government has always promoted increased spending by consumers to drive us out of recessions. That's why it's incredibly interesting that during the largest recession since the Great Depression, Congress would approve of a 'National Save for Retirement' week.
Average Retirement Savings per American
It turns out that they have good reason. According to the Employee Benefits Research Institute's 2009 Retirement Confidence Survey, 53% of workers in the U.S. have less than $25,000 in total savings and investments. The typical American household (headed by a 43 year old) has just over $18,000 in savings! That's a scary number.
With pension plans being a thing of the past, saving for your own retirement is increasingly important. The government is starting to realize that if it doesn't begin encouraging savings now, the expense of completely supporting tens of millions of retirees who have zero retirement savings will be catastrophic for the country. Now is the time for action.
These statistics get me absolutely fired up! My employer has a 401K match of 50% of my contributions up to the IRS maximum 401K contribution. That is an incredible benefit that I would never take for granted. However, a number of my colleagues don't take advantage of this free cash while having no home, no kids, and no major expenses. If they aren't taking advantage of this benefit, it's easy to see why workers who aren't getting a nice match are not saving at all. It kind of makes me sick on behalf of their future self looking back with regret.
I have the feeling that a good many of you are exceptions to these statistics. But why? How are most Americans not getting the message?
Retirement Savings Discussion:
- How much have you saved for retirement and what is your age?
- Why have you decided to save?
- If you could tell peers of yours why they should start saving, what would you say?

Philip V. Allingham, who has contributed to the Victorian Web since 2000, is Professor, Faculty of Education, and Adjunct Professor, Department of English, Lakehead University, Thunder Bay, Ontario, Canada. He worked for the Examinations Branch of the British Columbia Ministry of Education (1988 to 1991) and taught at the University of British Columbia in Vancouver after spending two decades in Canadian public schools as teacher and andinistrator. With the acceptance of his doctoral dissertation The Dramatic Adaptations of "The Christmas Books" of Charles Dickens, 1844-1848: Texts and Contexts (U. of British Columbia, Vancouver, Canada) in 1988, Dr. Philip V. Allingham made the transition to a career of scholarly research, publication, and post-secondary instruction after twenty years as a teacher of secondary English, Latin, and Western Civilisation in Ontario and B. C. public schools, notably at Balmoral Jr. Secondary in North Vancouver and at Mt. View, Esquimalt, and Oak Bay Secondary Schools in Victoria. While working in the Examinations Branch of the B. C. Ministry of Education from 1988 to 1991, Dr. Allingham taught survey courses in the novel, the Victorian novel, short fiction, and eight major British authors for the English Dept. at the University of B. C. His three-year stint as examinations coordinator of English Literature 12 concluded, he returned to the classroom, first as a contract lecturer in the Department of English at U. B. C., then as a teacher and department head for seven years in the English Department at Golden Secondary School, British Columbia School District No. 6 (Rocky Mountain).
During the decade following his acquisition of the doctoral degree, he taught in the university transfer program part-time for the College of the Rockies and for Language and Literacy Education at U. B. C., while serving on the executives of the local teachers' union and of the British Columbia Teachers of English Language Arts (BCTELA). Encouraged by the publication of more than two dozen scholarly articles on Dickens and Hardy (particularly on serial publication and illustration) in such prestigious journals as The Dickensian, The Dickens Quarterly, The Thomas Hardy Journal, The Thomas Hardy Year Book, and Nineteenth-Century Literature, as well as of teacher guides for the Global Shakespeare Series (ITP Nelson) editions of Julius Caesar and King Lear, he applied for the position of assistant professor, Intermediate/Senior English Curriculum and Instruction, Faculty of Education, Lakehead University, Thunder Bay, Ontario. Since becoming an associate professor he has served as Acting Chair of Lifelong Learning, Acting Chair of Undergraduate Studies in Education, Chair of Undergraduate Studies in Education, and for the past four years Vice-President of the Lakehead University Faculty Association (LUFA) and representative to the Canadian Association of University Teachers (CAUT).
His current research interests include critical language pedagogy, the changing nature of accepted formal usage, the transition of secondary students to university, and the illustration of the fiction of Thomas Hardy and Charles Dickens in volumes and in Victorian periodicals. A frequent contributor and consultant to The Dickens Magazine over the past decade, he has presented conference papers at the Canadian Society for Studies in Education at Laval, Quebec; the Society for Teaching and Learning at St. John's, Newfoundland; the American Educational Research Association (AERA) in San Francisco; and the Dickens Society of America conferences at Roanoke, Virginia; Oakland University, Michigan; Springfield, Massachusetts; Queen's University, Belfast; Kingston University, Kingston-on-Thames; Providence, Rhode Island; and Aix-en-Provence, France. In December 2001, he worked with Professor George Landow in the University Scholars Programme at the National University of Singapore in the capacity of Senior Fellow. Recent publications include "Charles 'Carlo' Dickens In and Out of Italy in 1844: The Chimes" in Dickens Studies Annual (Vol. 41), with Irina Gredina, "The Countess Vera Sergeevna Tolstaya's Russian Language Adaptation of Great Expectations (1895)" in Dickensian 105, 2 (Summer 2009), "The Illustrations for Great Expectations in Harper's Weekly (1860-61) and in the Illustrated Library Edition (1862) — 'Reading by the Light of Illustration'" in DSA The Haunted Man and The Ghost's Bargain: Public and Private Spaces and Spheres" in the DSA (Vol. 36), "Dickens's A Tale of Two Cities Illustrated: A Critical Reassessment of Hablot Knight Browne's Plates" (DSA, (Vol. 33), "Shadows in Great Expectations" in English Language Notes 41, 3 (March 2004); with Joe Belanger and Anna Lautard in 2008, "'Different than,' 'data is,' 'to boldly go' — Egregious errors or established usage?" English Quarterly 40 (3/4), and with Wayne Melville in 2011, "Faraday, Dickens and Science Education in Victorian Britain" in School Science Review, 92 (340), 69-72.
Professor Allingham has contributed several significant chapters in books include "Screening the Flashback: Three Ways of Opening The Mayor of Casterbridge" in Thomas Hardy on Screen, edited by Terry Wright (Cambridge U. P., 2005) and in Simon Cooke's Pictures of English Life: Class, Gender, and Identity in Black and White Illustrations of the 1860s "Reading The Pictures, Visualising The Text: Illustrations in Dickens from Pickwick to the Household Edition" (London: Ashgate: 2012). A complete volume of The Thomas Hardy Year Book (No. 40) entitled "Hardy's Artists," which appeared in March 2012, is entirely devoted to Allingham's essays on A Pair of Blue Eyes, Far from the Madding Crowd, George Du Maurier's illustrations for The Hand of Ethelberta and A Laodicean, Walter Paget's illustrations for The Pursuit of the Well-Beloved, and William Hatherell's illustrations for Jude the Obscure.
On Canadian national radio (CBC) he appeared on 19 December 2004 in an interview with the regular host of Tapestry, Mary Hynes, discussing the origins of A Christmas Carol. He was cited by both the National Post (Toronto) and The Times (London) on the social, cultural, literary, and meteorological contexts of A Christmas Carol.

The 5-9 Buffalo Bills, coming off a 50-17 thrashing in Toronto last week from the Seattle Seahawks travel to Miami to take on the 6-8 Miami Dolphins, coming off a solid 24-3 win over the Jacksonville Jaguars.
The Dolphins are mathematically still alive for a playoff spot, but they need a lot of help for this to happen. First and formost, the Dolphins will need to win today and at New England next Sunday to even have a remote chance of getting in the playoffs. Buffalo will be once again playing out the string and winding down what has to be considered a very disappointing season for a team that was considered a chic pick to make the playoffs in 2012 after spending big money in free agency.
Let's take a look at the teams to see how they match up.
Miami comes into the game ranked 27th in total offense generating 316.2 yards a game. They rank 23rd in passing offense at 203.9 yards per game, while ranking 16th in rush offense at 112.4 yards per game. The Dolphins rank 25th in points scored at 18.9 points per game. They face a Buffalo defense that ranks 24th in total defense giving up 369.5 yards per game. The Bill rank 15th in pass defense allowing 225.4 yards per game and rank 30th in rush defense giving up 144.1 yards per game. They are ranked 31st in points allowed at 28.7 points per game.
Buffalo beat the Dolphins in a week 11 game 19-14, and in that game the Dolphins had a big problem generating a run game against a bad Bills run defense. The Dolphins can't have that happen again today against what is still one of the worst rush defenses in the league. Today will be a HUGE day for one Lamar Miller, as RB Daniel Thomas is out for the remaining 2 games of the year with a knee injury. We all know Lamar is a very talented RB with more natural talent than Thomas. He must show that he can handle blocking assignments in the passing game. With that being said, he and Reggie Bush make up a potent 1-2 punch and I believe the Dolphins will have success today in the run game. QB Ryan Tannehill is coming off perhaps his best game as a starter last week, as he was 22-28 for 220 yards and 2 touchdown passes. Ryan has been a work in progress for the Dolphins, but he has shown nice signs of growth and development and hopefully he will finish out the season with continued growth. There is a chance he will be without his top 2 receivers in Brian Hartline & Davone Bess today, so he will have to make adjustment today with receivers he has not worked with a lot.
Defensively, Miami comes in ranked 17th in total defense giving up 348.9 yards per game. THey rank 26th in pass defense giving up 247.9 yards per game, while coming in 8th in rush defense giving up 100.9 yards per game. The Dolphins rank 6th in points allowed giving up 19.9 points per game. They face a Buffalo offense that ranks 20th in total offense generating 340.8 yards per game. They rank 25th in passing offense at 201.2 yards per game while ranking 6th in rush offense generating 139.6 yards per game. The Bills rank 19th in points scored at 21.9 points a game.
The key to stopping this Buffalo offense is containing one C.J Spiller. Spiller comes into the game with 1,047 yards rushing and gained 91 yards against Miami in the 1st game in Buffalo. The Dolphins will need to contain Spiller and put this game in the hands of erratic QB Ryan Fitzpatrick. Do that today and the Dolphins will have a great chance of winning this game.
I need to mention special teams in this as well, as the Bills got a big boost from a punt return for TD in the 1st game from Leodis McKelvin in the 1st game the teams played. The Dolphins did get a kickoff return for TD from Marcus Thigpen, but you generally lose games when you give up special team plays. The Dolphins have to play better in special teams today.
One thing that young teams need to learn is to beat teams they should beat. The Dolphins did that last week against the Jaguars, and even though they come into this game a little beat up, the Bills are a team the Dolphins should beat today in Miami in my opinion.
Let's go Miami.

Dr Chris Cragg, PPE, 1970
From: The European Energy Review, April 2008
In late February, amidst much self-promotion from Virgin Atlantic, a Boeing 747 flew from London to Amsterdam with one of its four tanks filled with a mix of 80% jet kerosene and a 20% mix of coconut and babassu palm oil. Of course, the minimal distance of 373 km meant that the lumbering giant had only just reached cruising altitude when it started coming down again, but no matter. This was supposed to be an example of ecological flying and a triumph for the humble coconut. Virgin Atlantic proudly explained that the oil of 150,000 coconuts was used. This provided less than 4.1% of the fuel on the trip. Presumably to fill all the tanks would have needed around three million of the things.
Given that pure coconut oil goes solid at 25°C, there must have been some technical skill involved here. However, it did prompt the thought that there might have been an alternative use for the produce of these palms, most notably for food. While clearly this is an issue for biofuels, it is curious how reluctant people are to make the rather obvious link between hydrocarbons and carbohydrates; the former being variations on the theme CH3 and the latter variations on C•H2O. Yet the link is staring straight at you when you look at a package of breakfast cereal in the morning. It is called the Calorie.
For reasons best known to themselves, the food people define the fattening Calorie as the amount of energy required to heat 1kg of water by 1°C. This is clearly designed to confuse it with the old energy unit, the calorie, which is the amount of energy required to heat 1gram of water by 1°C. One Calorie is thus 1,000 calories or a kcal. In the energy industry sadly, this has now been replaced by the pathetically tiny joule. However one kcal equals 4184 joules, or 1 joule equals 0.00023906 kcal.
It may be an old unit but the kcal does provide a fascinating link between the energy content of food and that provided by standard hydrocarbons. For example, a kilogram of diesel contains around 10,800 kcal, or 10.7 kcal per gram. In this respect it has almost twice the thermal content of peanuts, which weigh in at a fattening 5.5 kcal per gram. As a general rule of thumb, carbohydrates contain 4 kcal per gram, fats 9 kcal per gram and alcohol 7 kcal per gram.
Now it so happens that the recommended daily dose to keep body and soul together is 2,500 kcal for men and 2,000 kcal for women. The UN definition of under-nourishment is 1,800 kcal per day. At the other extreme, if you eat 3,500 kcal more than you use, you will put on almost half a kilo in weight.
According to Boeing, a 747 apparently does 12 litres of jet kerosene to the kilometre, although aircraft fuel consumption figures are notoriously difficult. One litre of this fuel contains 8,986 kcal, so a kilometre of flight will require 107,838 kcal of energy. If this jet kerosene were replaced directly by food Calories, it would thus amount to the food energy required to keep 60 people above the UN under-nourishment line for one day per kilometre. The entire trip would keep them alive for over a year. Alternatively, of course, the Jumbo would need the energy content of 7.3 tonnes of liquefied peanuts to complete the entire trip. Just an airline snack really!
In the meantime why not have a look at the News Archive.

Deluge creates havoc on the roads
Last updated at 17:20, Thursday, 28 June 2012
TORRENTIAL rain caused severe disruption across large parts of Tynedale on Thursday afternoon.
Several roads were closed because drainage systems were unable to deal with the volume of water.
The entrance to the Waitrose store in Wentworth, in Hexham, was flooded, as was a large section of the Wentworth car park. The Wentworth Leisure Centre was closed.
Conditions in Station Road, Hexham, were particularly bad. The volume of water was so huge in Priestpopple that sections of the road were washed away.
At one stage, the A69 was closed in both directions between the A68 junction at Corbridge and Bridge End Roundabout, in Hexham.

37 engine problems
Hello Everyone,
I have a 37 coupe that I have had a problem with for a couple of years I have tried everything I know to solve it. The car has been sitting for the last two years due to frustration but I am ready to try once again.The problem is when the car is cold it runs fine. Once it has warmed up it is Ok if you give very light throttle pressure but the minute you give it much gas it is like you turned the key off. Below is all the things I have tried.
I tie wrapped a coil to the fire wall and hot wired it directly to the battery to eliminate the coil, ignition switch, wiring etc. I removed the gas tank, cleaned it out, flushed all the lines, put an electric fuel pump through the stock pump then around the pump. Walt suggested that the muffler may have colapsed inside so I cut it of in front of the muffler. New points cap, wires rotor and several condensers. Removed the distributor checked to see if it was gounded also put in the oven to see if it was breaking down when up to temperature. The carburator was rebuilt about 10 years ago but not since I have been having the problem. I took it apart and has no visable debris in it. I think it fuel related. Any ideas would be greatly appreciated.
Ron -
It almost sounds like a rubber hose collapsing as soon as it gets warm but that shouldn't be an immediate reaction. It does sound though like it's starving for fuel and when you try to give it too much the engine dies. We had a car once that would do that because of a flap of rubber inside a fuel line that would obstruct the flow if it flipped down. I would replace all the rubber lines first if there are any.
Harry -
Last summer I had a similar problem. Found that there was a piece of "crud" (for lack of a better term) stuck in the pick-up tube inside the gas tank. It would start and idle. Sometimes it would even move for awhile. However if I tried to drive it the car would always die.
After determining that none of the rubber hoses were colapsing I pulled the pick-up out of the tank. (tank was clean by the way).
I blew in one end with compressed air and made a mark on the wall with a nasty little piece of crud.
It has run fine since.
Good luck! -
Ron, are you speaking literally when you say it quits just like you turned the ignition off? Stops instantly with a heavy accelerator setting? No surges, faltering, etc. ? If that's the case, it sounds more like ignition than fuel. You can rule out "fuel supply to the carburetor" problems with a temporary jury-rigged gravity feed source positioned above the carburetor. One other remote possibility in the fuel category ... be sure the carb float drop is set correctly, and that neither the float or the needle valve is hanging up on anything. That can restrict flow into the carb. Now for ignition: Does the car have an original type engine in it, with only mechanical spark advance? When you pull the center wire out of the distributor and hold it near (1/4") from the block to check the spark, is the spark pretty healthy, or pretty anemic looking?
This could also be an accelerator pump problem...either the pump is not getting fuel, due to a plugged inner passage in the carburetor, or it is not squirting the fuel that it does have.
You can check the pump by removing the aircleaner with the engine off, and manually operating the gas pedal linkage from idle to full throttle. Make sure the choke is open.
As you "floor" the gas, look down the carburetor throat with a flashlight, and you should see a steady solid stream of fuel squirting downwards inside the throat of the carburater.
Anything less than a full stream, i.e. a dribble, or nothing, means that when you step on the gas the fuel-air ratio goes way lean, starving and thus stalling the engine. When cold, the richening effect of the choke masks this, and the engine appears to function normally.
If you do not see a good squirt of fuel, check to see if the accelerator pump rod is hooked to its linkage. It is a rod sticking up thru the top of the carb. You will have to remove the "hat" that is on top of the carb, that covers this part of the carb, (it usually says "oil under screw"). Also, this linkage rod usually has 3 holes it can fit into...make sure it is in the hole that provides the greatest movement.
Hope this helps.
ps...just because the carburetor was rebuilt does not mean this is not the problem...the accelerator pump piston is leather, and can dry up or crack, etc. -
I will look at my notes but I believe I replaced all the hoses to be sure on was not collapsing. Also when I disconnect the hose going to the carburator with the electric pump on I get a good flow of gas into a can.
Thanks for the help
Ron -
I'll have to get into the carburator once again. As far as the spark goes I assume you are talking about the wire coming from the coil. I tie-wired a good coil to the fire wall and hot wired it directly to the battery as the stock coil, ignition switch and wiring are all on unit so it should have bypassed everything. It is a stock igntion system.
Thanks for you input
Does anyone have a carburator they want to sell for this car? I am not at home now but I believe it is WD 1 -
rmcf - This is probably not your problem , but I'll till you of a simular problem I ran into. The car ( stepdown , hydromatic ) was towed to my house. It would start and idle but as soon as I put it in gear, ( to get it into my driveway) , and give it some gas it would die. I finely found the problem. Someone had left the little spring under the metering rod piston out, causing the metering rod to stay down, starving the engine when puting it under load. Norm
Looking at the problem from another angle - I once had a similar problem that started just after I removed the distributor for some reason. When I replaced it, I was accidently off by one gear tooth (speaking of the gear at the bottom of the distributor shaft) from the correct setting. It would start, but as soon as I gave it any gas it would quit because the timing would advance, and be too far off for the engine to keep running.
If nothing else works, double check the distributor setting. Good luck!
John -
Thanks John,
I can recheck the timing with a light. I believe I did check it but like I said I got so frustrated I haven't touched the car for 2 years. I figured I would get input from everyone before I got back into it. Thanks for everyone input.
Ron -
Check to make sure the linkage beside/under the floatbowl for the accelerator pump hasn't come off the spindle connection. That's what happened to mine, would run fine on the idle circuit but died when you pressed the accelerator. top speed was around 25mph.

Continental Breakfast
By Rich Bravo
Photos by Chris McPherson
Cycling breeds 'eaters'. Only a small percentage of riders will know the satisfaction of scaling the top step of a podium at the end of a bike race but anyone who regularly throws a leg over the saddle for four- or five-hour sessions in the hills is likely to be a Cat 1 when they get to the all-you-can-eat buffet. It's simple physics. If you're going to burn 5,000 calories in a day, then you better have plenty of energy at hand from the previous night's meal, not to mention sufficient food in your pockets to last the duration of the ride.
Everyone has their own monumental stories of running out of food, bonking spectacularly and being left in a pit of shame, soft-pedaling to the nearest gas station to devour whatever Ring-Dings, Ho-Hos or Mountain Dew have the most calories. A moment of particular disgrace in what is a personal pantheon of food-related disasters happened in the last 24 hours of a cross-country race. It was the middle of the night and while we were still a few hundred miles from the finish, having ridden almost 3,000 miles it felt as if we were already done. We rolled by a Subway and our support crew was grabbing a midnight snack and since I had just finished my turn on the bike, I decided a meal with 'real' food would be a good idea. Most of the calories we ate had been consumed through drinks and bars, so the idea of eating something more substantial was tempting. This was a mistake. If you still have a couple hundred miles to ride do not eat a meatball sub with hot peppers. This advice makes so much sense now; it didn't at the time.
Therein lies the hurdle for those of us who will go out and spend the better part of a day in the saddle, testing how many miles and how many feet of climbing our bodies can withstand. Pre-packaged mixes, gels and bars are convenient, don't involve any preparation, fit perfectly in pockets and have the calories required for just about any ride. But after two or three hours of eating processed calories, my stomach usually shuts down and it becomes an unpleasant effort to continue eating anything at all. As a result, I'm no stranger to bonking. In fact, for most rides I do that last more than about 80 miles, I'll end up not eating enough during the final couple hours.
The Rapha Continental's 2013 excursion was a first for me, certainly with regards to how we refueled throughout the days we were riding. It also marks the only time I've done long miles while eating only 'real' food, prepared before we set out on our bikes. We were fortunate enough to have Biju Thomas and Jon Robichaud from Skratch Labs preparing many of our meals off the bike, as well as all of the food we would be eating while in the saddle. We had a seemingly endless supply of rice cakes, made in two different varieties: a sweet version with either chocolate or fruit; and a savory set, with bacon. We also had PB&J sandwiches, apples, oranges and bananas. And Mexican coke.
When you have good food on a ride, food that is nutritious and has enough calories, edibles that are healthy and taste good, you never really think about it. Aside from giving your body the materials it needs to function at a high level, you are giving yourself the peace of mind to not have to think about your food, which really is a blessing when you'd rather be focusing on the ride, the scenery and life gliding by.

TIME > 1½ to 2 hours, including time to marinate
Here's my version of the classic Indian dish reduced to the absolute basic ingredients. You should definitely experiment with adding more spices and heat if you're making this at home. Be sure to start marinating the chicken at least an hour before you plan to cook.
- 2lbs chicken, cut into bite-sized pieces
- 1 cup tomato sauce
- 1 cup plain yogurt
- 2 tablespoons curry powder
- 1 cup sliced onions
- 1 teaspoon salt
Optional additions
- Minced fresh ginger
- 2–4 green chillies, cut into strips
Combine the chicken with the other ingredients (including optional additions, if desired) in a bowl. Marinate for at least 1 hour in the fridge.
Heat oven to 375F/ 190C. Transfer chicken, in the marinade, to a deep, ovenproof dish and cover with foil. Bake until chicken is thoroughly cooked, about 1 hour. Alternatively, to prepare on the stove top, bring to a simmer and cook over medium heat for approximately 30 minutes. Add salt and pepper to taste.
Garnish with chopped cilantro (coriander) and serve as a spicy stew or with steamed rice.

As trade with China continues to be a potent political issue on Capitol Hill, academics have increasingly looked in detail at the downside of U.S. moves to liberalize trade.
Take the case of the U.S. recession of 2001, which followed the bursting of the tech bubble and was mild by most measures. It lasted eight months. GDP declined just a bit. Unemployment topped out at 5.5% during the downturn.
But it also ushered in a huge decline in manufacturing employment. About 1.5 million manufacturing jobs were lost in the first year of that downturn –and continued to fall for years afterward– far more than the 900,000 manufacturing jobs lost in the first year of the so-called Great Recession of December 2007 through mid-2009.
What happened? In a word: China.
Economists Justin Pierce of the Federal Reserve Board and Peter Schott of Yale University's School of Management argue in a recent paper that import competition from China had a devastating impact on U.S. manufacturing jobs. Especially interesting is that the competition wasn't spurred by tariff cuts. Instead, it was congressional passage of "permanent normal trade relations," or PNTR, the wonkish term used by the U.S. to note that China was entitled on a regular basis to the lowest tariff rates the U.S. grants to its other trading partners. China won PNTR in 2000 when it cut a deal with the U.S. to join the World Trade Organization.

A cat token has been introduced to Monopoly, the board that's been around since the 1930s, replacing the iron as one of the game pieces. (Don't worry, the thimble is hanging in).
Say hello, kitty.
Purists of the board game might not like the move, but game-maker Hasbro let the cat -- in huge form -- roam around London in late July.
The celebri-cat was photographed posing on Millennium Bridge, approaching a Tube station and visiting the Battersea Dogs & Cats Home, where at least one dog jumped on its back. And maybe the Scottie dog token will have some competition now that the cat joins the other choices of race car, thimble, shoe, battleship, top hat and wheelbarrow.
Earlier this year fans from more than 185 countries weighed in on Facebook to select the cat as the new token over a robot, diamond ring, helicopter or standard guitar.
"While we're a bit sad to see the iron go, the cat token is a fantastic choice by the fans and we have no doubt it will become just as iconic as the original tokens," Eric Nyman, senior vice president and global brand leader for Hasbro Gaming, says in a statement.
The game is available in 43 languages and 111 countries, according to Hasbro's website, and the high-rent properties vary according to which version of the game you're playing.
The luxe Boardwalk in the U.S. game, for example, is named for a street in Atlantic City, N.J., but in Spain it's Paseo del Prado in Barcelona and the shopping district Rue de la Paix in Paris.

About This Deal
From beauty queen curls, to beachy waves, to flirty flips, it's hard to want to keep your hair straight when you have so many options. But the damage curling irons and traditional hot rollers can cause leaves your hair fried, broken and dull. Get silky, lustrous waves the healthy way with today's Moolala deal: for $59 receive Heated Ceramic Styling Shells by Topstyler from Instyler ($100 Value).
Ceramic C-Shells surround hair and infuse gentle, even heat. Fingers replace rollers, so no more multiple tools, formed curls or set sizes. C-Shells hold the curl in place until hair is completely cool, causing the curl or wave to hold three times longer than other curling tools.
