Wild winds whip southern Tasmania, downing trees and power lines
- From: Mercury
- August 07, 2014
A HAPLESS University of Tasmania law student emerged from a lecture yesterday to see her four-year-old metallic pink Nissan Micra crushed beneath the trunk of a giant eucalyptus tree that had been brought down in the wild wind.
Roxanne Zeng, 20, had to wait for hours while emergency workers lifted the tree so she could retrieve insurance papers inside the car.
Gale force wind hit the state's south at 2.30pm, with gusts up to 113km/h felling trees and powerlines and lifting the roof off a house.
Ms Zeng said she had parked her car in "glorious sunshine" before attending her two-hour class.
"I was shocked to see what had happened," she said.
A traffic jam extended back into the city when the northbound lanes of the Brooker Highway were closed at the intersection of Federal St in peak hour to allow council workers to remove large branches that had split from a tree.
Foster St, New Town was also closed as emergency workers fixed a tarpaulin on a house that had lost its roof.
A big tree also fell and blocked the Arthur Highway at Taranna on the Tasman Peninsula. Emergency crews were called to the scene at 7.30pm and worked into the night to clear the road.
Trees were brought down in Sandy Bay, Blackmans Bay, Richmond and Cygnet and several roofs were reported as damaged in Lutana and Dynnyrne.
One driver, whose car became tangled in fallen powerlines in West Moonah, was trapped in his car for an hour while police checked whether the wires were live.
The strongest recorded gust in Hobart was 113km/h at Battery Point at 3.50pm.
The wind peaked at 159km/h on Mt Wellington.
SES spokesman George Cretu said the wet ground after recent heavy rain made trees more likely to fall. The SES and Tasmania Police advised people to supervise children closely and to be beware of damaged trees.
"We advised commuters to take extra care when travelling home during peak hour last night,'' he said.
The wind continued to cause damage as the front moved east.
Emergency services were called to a large sheoak tree that had fallen on to the Tasman Highway near Swansea – 10km south of Rocky Hills, at 9.30pm.

Why are such big trees still allowed to be planted in suburban areas, councils should be liable for all damage, how many times do these huge trees need to cause damage or even death before these so called leaders finally great it.

No Mike Basil, it's Tony Abbott's fault. He scrapped the 'carbon tax'.

One of my colleagues just IM'd me with the following: "Did you see there's a 1-minute clip of 'Twilight' online???? OMG OMG OMG OMG OMG." While I suspect he was being just a teensy bit sarcastic with the "OMGs," there is indeed a nice little one-minute clip up over on MTV of part of the scene at the ballet studio with James going after Bella, and Edward coming to the rescue. It's a short clip, but it definitely gives you a feel for how director Catherine Hardwicke is handling the action of the vampire fights, and it's pretty intense.
It's just enough to whet your appetite a bit for the full scene up on a big screen ... and of course, by that point in the storyline, there will be plenty of dramatic tension from what's taken place before that to up the intensity level even more.
On the one hand, I kind of like seeing the cast pics and the little clips to get a feel for how it's coming together, but on the other hand, it just makes me that much more impatient for the film to come out; I don't know how my daughter is going to make it until December, she practically broke my eardrum squealing over this clip.
No doubt many of you Twilighters have already watched (and re-watched) the clip, but if you've not seen it yet, go check it out, already. Then pop on back here and weigh in with what you think about how the film seems to be coming together. Are you liking Robert Pattinson as Edward? Did you get goosebumps when he tells James, "I'm strong enough to kill you ... "? And what do you think of the way Hardwicke is handling the visuals of the vampire's abilities? In an earlier clip, we saw Edward running with Bella, and Edward grab her and leap out the window; now we're getting a taste of the battle scenes. I'm liking what I'm seeing ... what do you think?

On St. Hildegard: Cloistered Nun and Mystic
"The Receiver of Supernatural Gifts Never Boasts"
| 4413 hits
CASTEL GANDOLFO, Italy, SEPT. 1, 2010 (Zenit.org).- Here is a translation of the address Benedict XVI gave today at the general audience in Castel Gandolfo.
* * *
Dear Brothers and Sisters,
In 1988, on the occasion of the Marian Year, the Venerable John Paul II wrote an Apostolic Letter titled "Mulieris dignitatem," dealing with the valuable role that women have had and have in the life of the Church.
"The Church," one reads there, "gives thanks for all the manifestations of the feminine 'genius' which have appeared in the course of history, in the midst of all peoples and nations; she gives thanks for all the charisms which the Holy Spirit distributes to women in the history of the People of God, for all the victories which she owes to their faith, hope and charity: she gives thanks for all the fruits of feminine holiness" (No. 31).
In those centuries of history that we usually call medieval, several women are outstanding for their holiness of life and the richness of their teaching. Today I would like to begin to present one of them to you: St. Hildegard of Bingen, who lived in Germany in the 12th century. She was born in the Rhineland in Bermersheim in 1098, in the region of Alzey, and died in 1179 at the age of 81, despite having permanently frail health.
Hildegard belonged to a noble and numerous family and, from her birth, she was vowed by her parents to the service of God. At 8 years of age, in order to receive an adequate human and Christian formation, she was entrusted to the care of the teacher Judith of Spanheim, who had withdrawn into a cloister near the Benedictine monastery of St. Disibod. A small women's cloistered monastery was being formed, which followed the Rule of St. Benedict. Hildegard received the veil from Bishop Othon of Bamberg and, in 1136, on the death of Mother Judith, who had become the superior of the community, her fellow-sisters called Hildegard to succeed her. She carried out this task bringing to fruition her gifts as an educated woman, spiritually elevated and able to address competently the organizational aspects of cloistered life. A year or so later, also because of the growing number of young women who knocked on the door of the monastery, Hildegard founded another community in Bingen, named after St. Rupert, where she spent the rest of her life. The style with which she exercised the ministry of authority is exemplary for every religious community: It inspired a holy emulation in the practice of goodness, so much so that, as we see from testimonies of the time, the mother and the daughters competed in their reciprocal esteem and service.
Already in the years in which she was superior of the monastery of St. Disibod, Hildegard had begun to dictate the mystical visions she had received for some time to her spiritual adviser, monk Volmar, and to her secretary, a fellow sister to whom she was very devoted, Richardis of Strade. As always happens in the life of true mystics, Hildegard, too, wanted to be subject to the authority of wise persons to discern the origin of her visions, fearing that they were the fruit of illusions and that they did not come from God. She turned, therefore, to the person that at her time enjoyed the highest esteem of the Church: St. Bernard of Clairvaux, of whom I have already spoken in some catecheses. He calmed and encouraged Hildegard. However, in 1147 she received another very important approval. Pope Eugene III, who was presiding at a synod in Treviri, read a text dictated by Hildegard, presented to him by Archbishop Henry of Mainz. The Pope authorized the mystic to write down her visions and to speak publicly.
From that moment, Hildegard's spiritual prestige grew increasingly, so much so that her contemporaries attributed to her the title of "Teutonic prophetess." This is, dear friends, the seal of an authentic experience of the Holy Spirit, source of every charism: The receiver of supernatural gifts never boasts, does not exhibit them and, above all, shows total obedience to ecclesial authority. Every gift distributed by the Holy Spirit, in fact, is destined for the edification of the Church, and the Church, through her pastors, recognizes their authenticity.
I will speak once again next Wednesday about this great woman "prophetess," who speaks with great timeliness also to us today, with her courageous capacity to discern the signs of the times, with her love for creation, her medicine, her poetry, her music, which today is being pieced together, her love of Christ and of his Church, suffering also at that time, wounded also at that time by the sins of priests and laymen, and that much more loved as Body of Christ. So St. Hildegard speaks to us; we will speak of her again next Wednesday. Thank you for your attention.
[Translation by ZENIT]
[In English, he said:]
I greet the English-speaking pilgrims, especially those from Scotland, Ireland, Denmark, Japan and Sri Lanka. Our catechesis today deals with Saint Hildegard of Bingen, the great nun and mystic of the twelfth century. One of the outstanding women of the Middle Ages, Hildegard used her spiritual gifts for the renewal of the Church and the spread of authentic Christian living. Hildegard reminds us of the contribution which women are called to make to the life of the Church in our own time. Trusting in her intercession, I cordially invoke upon all of you God's abundant blessings!
[In Spanish, he said:]
I greet the Spanish-speaking pilgrims, in particular the group of the Diocese of Bilbao, accompanied by the bishop-elect, Mario Iceta, as well as other faithful from Spain, Chile, Argentina, Mexico and other Latin American countries.
Likewise, I greet the participants in the Third Latin American Congress of Young People, which will shortly be held in the city of Los Teques, Venezuela. The meeting, organized by the Youth Section of the Latin American bishops' council, will take place under the motto: "Let Us Walk with Jesus to Give Life to Our Peoples."
I invite all those present in that significant initiative to look at Jesus Christ, Son of the living God. With his grace, you will find the strength that impels one to be committed to causes that dignify man and make peoples great.
Dear young people, may these days of fellowship, prayer and study serve you to personally encounter the Lord and to hear his Word. You will not be disappointed, as he has plans of love and salvation for everyone. The Pope is by your side and reiterates his confidence in you, while at the same time asking God to assist you so that, being authentic disciples of Jesus Christ, you may live the values of the Gospel, transmit them with courage to those around you and so that you will be inspired in them to build a more just and reconciled world. It is worthwhile to give oneself to this beautiful mission.
May the Virgin Mary accompany you on your journey and always remind you that there is no greater happiness than that of being Christ's friend. May the apostolic blessing that I impart with affection also serve you. Many thanks!
[In Italian, he said:]
Finally, I greet young people, the sick and newlyweds. Dear young people, taking up again after the vacations your usual daily activities, spread with your testimony the light of God in every environment. You, dear sick people, find support in Jesus, who continues his work of redemption in the life of every man. And you, dear newlyweds, draw from the love of Christ, so that your love will be ever more solid and lasting.

BIAD Obsessionistas - an exhibition of personal collections
5-16 December 2011
Obsessionistas curated an exhibition of personal collections from across the staff and student community at the Birmingham Institute of Art and Design.
On show were a broad range of items representing twenty five different collectors and their collections, including Japanese guitars, vintage hairdryers, Spirograph sets, English delftware, Mickey Mouse ties and deely boppers!
The eclectic and often curious objects on display offered an insight into how, in our world of homogeneous 'me too' lifestyles, products and global brands, individuality can at least in part be expressed through our particular obsessions and what we single out as important enough to collect.
The exhibition took place at the School of Jewellery, an award winning and visually inspirational building located within the heart of Birmingham's historic jewellery quarter. For further information contact firstname.lastname@example.com
BIAD Obsessionistas

The Private View
A private view party for BIAD Obsessionistas was held on Thursday 8 December. Around a hundred people attended despite the crazy weather conditions outside on what turned out to be one of the stormiest nights of the year! Introductory speeches were given by Professor Chris O'Neil, the Dean of Birmingham Institute of Art and Design, and by Graham Powell, co-founder of Obsessionistas.
We'd like to say a huge thank you to all the exhibitors, everyone at the School of Jewellery, the MA Product Design students for serving the drinks, Adam Fradgley of Exposure Photography for capturing such great images of the evening and of course all who came along for what turned out to be both an insightful and fun evening.

We just received our first box today!! Collin is right it is a great service.
Our first dish today was delicious!
Here is my review: http://reviewsfrommom.blogspot.com/2014/04/plated-review-april-4th-2014-2.html?m=1
I love plated!!!!! https://www.plated.com/invites/dca883 thanks a bunch :) bless you
I have been a customer for approx. a few months. Love the idea, for single's or couples who don't want to buy more than you have to for the meal. If you use this referral code, you can get two free plates. https://www.plated.com/invites/974ac8 Thank You!
I love the convenience as well– much cheaper than eating out. Please consider using my referral code for 2 free plates: https://www.plated.com/invites/167ae6 Thanks!
I was more than pleased with my plates!!! I wish I could afford to continue to be a member. Perfect for foodies and busy families. Here is my link!https://www.plated.com/invites/3ba16c
I just place my first order right before Colin posted! So excited to try the swordfish. Rarely can we get quality seafood in the midwest, so I'm really hopeful that using this direct shipping service will get us some fresh fish!
Used someone's link from last time this was posted and would really appreciate it if someone could use mine! Thank You!!
Please use my code and pay it forward.
The first time I used Plated, they sent the incorrect ingredients and offered to make up for this by sending my next box for free – Great customer service!
I have also used HelloFresh, and I love it! HelloFresh meals typically take about 30 minutes to make while Plated meals are more complex and take about 45 minutes – Both produce restaurant quality meals (but healthier). I plan to continue using both services.
Plated link for 2 free plates: https://www.plated.com/invites/ccb9aa
HelloFresh code for $20 off your first box: 6M58SB (www.hellofresh.com)
Why are you advertising for another company? That is COMPLETELY rude. You must work for them and for this reason, I will never purchase from them.
Does the $10 include the shipping? Or is that $10 just for the food? Or is that $10 charged no matter if you choose to receive food that week or not? Seems like a good idea…but there are a bunch of questions for me.
You spend $20 for a box that contains ingredients/recipes for 2 meals for 2 people (they call this "4 plates").
If you do not cancel your membership before the next month rolls around, you will be charged $10 for a membership.
Be careful and make sure you skip the recurring weekly meals if you do not want to use that service or they will automatically ship at $12 per plate (totaling $72 for a box of 3 meals for 2 people).
Also, feel free to use my links as I noted above. I actually prefer HelloFresh over Plated. Their website is more straightforward and easier to cancel orders in advance and do not have a "subscription fee":
-Plated link for 2 free plates: https://www.plated.com/invites/ccb9aa
-HelloFresh code for $20 off your first box: 6M58SB (https://www.hellofresh.com)
So it's $10 a month, plus money for any plates you buy?
Never heard of plated but just watching Shark Tank now and that Monkey Mat seems really useful. I just checked Amazon and they are marked down to 29.99 from 39.99. Still kinda pricey for me but really could use one of these.
Monkey mat is $19.99 on their website, I guess they listened and did indeed drop the price.
Yay, they got an offer. Just watched and Mark, my fav shark, offered them a deal and they accepted. Good for them. I wish them lots of luck and hope they do well.
Spoiler Alert!
Is it me or does $20 for 4 plates sound expensive? I would rather pay someone to make it at that price.
$20 for 4? I could have sworn on Shark Tank they said it was $10 per person/plate with a minimum of 4.
Its $12 now.
All the meals I am seeing are 800 calories and $12 per plate. For that price I'd rather dine out.
Yes. I don't really mind the cooking–but it is the clean up after all of that work that I hate. I would rather someone else take care of it for the price. Just me…
I've tried it and was impressed. Both meals I got were good. Just saw them on Shark Tank. I'm confused though….they said that each meal was $10. Did I hear that wrong? That's not what their website says….
I tried the $20 for 4 meals deal and I gotta say I was really impressed! I honestly did not expect the food to be so good, we tried the chicken tostadas and shepherds pie, and we will definitely be making those recipes again. Would love to try another meal, so it would be really great if you'd sign up under my link! https://www.plated.com/invites/8f8249 thank you!
It's great that everyone loved their meals, and not to be a downer, but we tried it and we didn't care for our recipes. We tried the Korean bibimbap and the monkfish. It took my daughter and I two hours to cook both recipes and then the food was just okay. Maybe it was just those recipes because the packaging, etc. was really great.
Dana, I have to agree. I ordered those same dishes and they took 2 hours to make, I didn't eat dinner until almost 8. They were okay, I like the Korean bibimbap, but thought the flank steak was very tough. The monkfish was also tough and neither my husband or enjoyed that dinner.
I had both and they were great. Especially the monkfish. Not saying you guys are wrong. I would contact them and let them know though. They have great customer service.
Get 2 free plates by using this code https://www.plated.com/invites/561d3a.
This looks amazing!my husbands 30th bday is next week! we just welcomed second son into the world so a celebration dinner in is a must…im so excited to try plated
please use my referral link :] https://www.plated.com/invites/1c47a4
http://Www.HelloFresh.com code wvxkys gets you 20off. Really love hello fresh :) you can pick 3 meals, even more value they plated we think. Very easy and good quality fresh items and recipes. Really really recommend it
We also tried it and the dishes were nothing that I couldn't have made on my own. The portions were tiny and they failed to include a key ingredient for one of the dishes. I contacted customer service and they have never responded. We won't be using it again.
I looked at Plated a couple of months ago and I really have to agree with most of the sharks. I don't get it. The initial offer of 4 plates for $20 is reasonable. But the regular price of $12 per serving is crazy. There is not a single meal on the site that I couldn't find a recipe for on my own and get the ingredients for substantially cheaper than what they are offering, even if I went to a high end store like Whole Foods. Is this appealing to people who maybe don't have a pantry stocked up with basics like oils, spices, seasonings, etc? Because I know that it can be expensive the to buy a bottle of spices for one recipe. But for $24, I can order two plates and serve me and my husband. Or $23 gets me a box of produce from my local CSA and I've got enough fresh veggies for 2 to last a week. The latter saves time and money.
While this article trumpets the fact that the box that your food arrives in is recyclable and biodegradable, it fails to mention that it is the ONLY thing that is recyclable. It also contains 2 large synthetic gel "ice" packs. Which while they are re-usable and non-toxic, if someone were to get a weekly shipment, the vast majority of these will probably end up in a landfill. The box is also lined with a large amount foil-wrapped insulation which does not appear biodegradable in the least. These will also end up in a landfill after their one-time use. As for the food, yes it appears to be very fresh. All the herbs are wrapped in their own individual, non-biodegradable plastic pouches. As for value I'm not impressed with that either. Personally I can make my food dollar stretch farther than what this company offers and still eat fresh and healthy, but maybe that's just me.
Someone in my area was on the first season of Shark Tank and 2 of the investors bought into her invention. However, neither person EVER contacted or got back to her about the product! She eventually sold her idea to another company so I don't believe all the Shark Tank shows are on the up and up.

Native American leader guest lecturer at NNU
Richard Twiss, a Native American, will be NNU's guest speaker during Beloved Community week. Twiss, a member of the Sicangu Oyate Lakota from the Rosebud Sioux reservation, SD, is a popular speaker, activist, educator and author within the Native North American and indigenous community.
As a Native American (or First Nations leader), Twiss brings a fresh and unique worldview perspective about what it means to "be human and follow Jesus" in order to help his listeners learn to value and appreciate those who are different from themselves. Twiss' engaging humor disarms audiences, opening their hearts and minds to embrace an invitation and challenge to become radically committed to "loving your neighbor as yourself." He is committed to creating opportunities for the betterment of Native American people and communities through advancing education, culture, family and spirituality in the Spirit of Jesus.
Twiss' presentation will focus on "making sense of diversity through the framework of trinitarian thought." This lecture is one of several educational events taking place during NNU's Beloved Community celebrations January 21-25. The University has embraced the words and works of the likes of Dr. Martin Luther King, and in that spirit, addresses a broader community, confronts social issues and pursues reconciliation to, in the words of Dr. King, create "a beloved community."
Previous speakers during NNU's Beloved Community celebrations have been Miniejean Brown-Trickey, one of the Little Rock Nine, and the integration crisis in Little Rock, AK, and Charles March, professor of Theology, University of Virginia and student of the civil rights movement.
Twiss will speak during a student chapel on Wed., Jan. 23, as well as a community presentation at 7 p.m. that evening in Northwest Nazarene University's Brandt Center. The presentation is free and open to the public. For information regarding this and other Beloved Community events, contact Dr. Steve Shaw at 208-467-8878.

Why are sportive photos so much costlier here in UK than on the continent?
Previous Forum topic
Next Forum topic
For Tour of Flanders sportive, the price for all my photos (22) + additional event photos (18) was EUR 20 (~£16). This included the photos in medium resolution, high res, and a kml file with exact location of each photo.
For the recent King of the Downs sportive, the price for one single photo download is £9.5. If I want all my photos (8), the cost is £36. (Just for comparison, if I had 22 photos here, the cost at this rate would've been £99!)
Is there a particular reason for the cost of sportive photos in the UK to be so high?
Supply & demand? Or perhaps they think that people willing to pay £30 to go for a bike ride are seen as well-heeled and an easy target.
When you see the amount of cash people spend on their cars and bikes I'd have thought a few more quid for a photo isn't going to break the bank. Mind you, every dick with a smartphone thinks they're David Bailey nowadays.
Perhaps the Flanders customers on average have a different buying pattern or maybe the 'togs just see the market differently. It's not compulsory.

The clue's in the word 'sportive' and the interpretation of it here and on the continent.
Naturally, many companies are seeking the maximise revenue that MAMILs etc generate in that marketplace. I can understand buying a nice photo to put on your wall but that's just to buy an image that they've created by pressing a shutter button? So that's printing and framing on top, right?
Just a thought but I assume there is nothing to stop me setting up my camera and tripod on the queens highway and taking photos of all and sundry on a sportive i.e. it can't be licensed or anything. Once you've composed your shot, how hard can it be? All that's left is to set up a website and upload a few thousand photos to it. If you have number recognition software, you're laughing.
If there are any sportive photographers on here, I'd love to know if there's more to it than that.

Who're you buying photos from? The sportive organisers or a third party tog?
If its the organisers they'll have had to pay a tog to take the pictures and that increases costs, being a photographer isn't cheap, gear costs, travel, insurance and time cost (it takes bloody ages to edit 3000 digital images, trust me) coupled with potentially low sales means that high prices might be needed to produce any profit at all. Couple that with a general lowering of photography standard (everyone with an SLR is now a pro...), a race to the bottom on most photography pricing because amateurs with day jobs are willing to massively undercut you just for some pocket money or 'exposure', the belief that digital images cost nothing to produce hence should generally be available for free and the fact that in the facebook generation everyone just uses online images for free without considering copyright means that making any living from photography is increasingly difficult.
There probably is some level of profit in there but remember, just because its possible for a random to rock up with £500 of photography equipment and no experience doesn't mean the guy taking the photos has so few overheads, more likely he's a 20 year vet with £10k of equipment just looking to make ends meet.
/end rant
Disclaimer: I do the odd bit of photography (covered the Oldham tour series event for road.cc last year, but mainly live music and festivals) so I may be biased.

drheaton: Thanks for the explanation. My comments weren't intended to denigrate the skills or business acumen of professions photographers; more a question of where that money goes. I guess it comes down to how much the rider values the image and that's where the professions offer the better deal.
It's interesting to hear about amateur competition with the explosion of decent DSLRs etc but I guess without a tie in with the organisers, they would always struggle to advertise that they were around. How much do the Organisers like Kilotogo make I wonder? How does the quality compare to mainland Europe if they can do 18 photos for 20 euros?
Personally, it would have to be a bloody stunning photo for me to shell out. A bit difficult as by default, I would be in the shot!

In both cases, it is a 3rd party tog associated with the sportive organisers.
Read your 'rant', but that still doesn't explain the huge difference in prices. Going by the quality of equipment I saw at both RvV and KotD, and the quality of photos, there isn't much difference. If at all, the quality of photos from RvV is slightly better.
I'm not trying to devalue the skill and effort of a sportive photographer, or in any way question their right to price their output wherever they think is correct.
What I'm trying to figure out is what helps a tog on the continent price their photos so much cheaper than the ones here on the island. Equipment cost, processing time, insurance, and travel mustn't be SO different.
So, I can just hypothesise on two factors -
- Higher, (perceived) ability and willingness of riders to pay for photos here in the UK. This could be due to many first/few-timers taking part.
- Scale of the event on the continent - ~15,000 participants versus ~1500 for KotD. If most costs are fixed, sorting automated, and purchase rates similar, this could make a HUGE difference in returns for photographers even at much lower prices.
Wonder if we have someone on road.cc who's shot an event on the continent

rbx, its likely to be both of those, volume means more people to sell to so more potential revenue for a single days work. The costs for shooting a 1500 and 15000 entrant event would be similar so spread them across each possible sale and it greatly reduces overheads per image sold. The volume will make a massive difference. Likewise living costs, I don't know the ins and outs but it'll be considerably more expensive to live in the south east as opposed to France or Belgium.
It's difficult to deny though that the with sportive entry itself being quite expensive the entrants are likely to have some disposable income (hell, most spend fortunes on top end racing bikes just to pootle around the countryside) so they are a profitable demographic, if anyone's likely to spend a few quid on a picture of themselves on their prized possession its MAMILS. At least, that's how organisers will see it.
rbx and arriere, no offence taken, I wasn't really ranting, photography is a funny business because generally you get what you pay for but there's no reason a photo taken by someone with a cheapo SLR should be any worse than one taken by a ten year pro on a £5k camera. The trickle down of technology in DSLRs means even cheap cameras are excellent and high end photographs are accessible to more people.

- Higher, (perceived) ability and willingness of riders to pay for photos here in the UK. This could be due to many first/few-timers taking part.
If anything I would say thats going to be the other way around.
Lower ability and willingness of riders to pay for photo's in the UK could be a factor in the price being higher.
Not that i'm claiming to know anything about it, but I would think sales abroad would be higher, because alot of these sportives attract riders for all over the world just wanting to take part in a ride which the pro's cover.
Where as in the UK, they are not so prestigious, riders may think, well it was only down the road, I don't need a photo of that.
So with a lower uptake on photo's in the UK is going to force the price up to break even before you even think about profit. Abroad, you'll set a level where its easy enough to make profit, but still cheap enough that people with purchase a memento of their ride, just so they can say "I was there, LOOK"

MTA Sorting Out Maze at Fulton Street Transit Center
The MTA is beginning to straighten out the confusing maze of ramps at the Fulton and Nassau subway stations downtown. That means over the next two weekends some riders will have to exit and re-enter the complex to make the connections they want. They can get free transfers to do so.
The detours are necessary because contractors will be removing the ramp on the western side of the A-C platform, and replacing it with a temporary staircase. Eventually, workers will erect a level concourse in place of the ramps. Permanent staircases will bring riders down to the A-C platforms. The concourse will allow straphangers to get from the west end of the complex to the eastern end without having to go down to the A-C platform to do so.
There's more detail on the MTA's website.

Symbolic regression is a function discovery approach for analysis and modeling of numeric multivariate data sets for a purpose of getting insights about data-generating systems. As the name suggests, the method by which the insights are to be generated is regression.
Symbolic regression, or symbolic function identification, seeks to discover many symbolic expressions of functions that fit the given data set. In more detail, the task of regression is to identify the variables (inputs) in the data that are related to the changes in the important control variables (outputs), to express these relationships in mathematical models, and to analyze the quality and generality of the constructed models.
If a researcher possesses domain knowledge and intuition for the appropriate input variables and the appropriate form of the functional relationship between inputs and the output, then classical regression techniques will efficiently optimize the parameters in the assumed model (e.g., by using ordinary or generalized least squares method for the given model structure). When the domain knowledge about the data generating system is limited, it is the task and the responsibility of the researcher to prune the data variables to an uncorrelated subset and guess the right model form. Symbolic regression, as opposed to regression techniques, does it for the researcher, and discovers both the form of the model and its parameters.
Symbolic regression proceeds with model building by first, asking the researcher to select a set of primitive functional operators allowed in the mathematical models, second, by applying an evolutionary algorithm to evolve both model structures and model parameters, and third, by scrutinizing modeling results to identify the driving input variables, and to select the final ensemble of models.

The Buckle Sandal
Rated 4.7 out of 5 by 9 reviewers.
Rated 5 out of 5 by hny3 Style & Comfort These shoes are one of the best purchases I have ever made. I get compliments everywhere I go. But the real reason I love them is because they are so cute AND they never make my feet hurt! It is so hard to find a pair of heels that are comfortable, but these are the ones. I can walk around for a full day without any pain. I am seriously considering buying another pair. The only problem is that the front part of the wood is cracking a little bit... anyone else notice that? I don't know how to fix that. June 4, 2013
Rated 5 out of 5 by AnneR16 Love These Shoes Every woman should own a pair of stacked heel sandals. Madewell makes the best versions by far and this pair is no exception. I bought the coral pair as soon as they were released. These shoes are really comfortable and do wonders to elongate your legs. They are chic, sexy and on trend all at the same time. I just ordered the transatlantic blue as I have been waiting for a good navy/blue shoe to go with all of the navy pieces I bought this spring. Do yourself a favor and buy these shoes while you still can. You won't' be disappointed. May 28, 2013
Rated 5 out of 5 by spaulin Just what I've been looking for! I had been eying these sandals for a while, so when they went on sale I bought them immediately. I'm so glad I did! I wore them for the first time last week and I received so many complements. I was able to wear them all day without any discomfort. I did get a slight nick in the wood from walking on gravel, but it's not really that noticeable. The light coral color is beautiful and will go with so many outfits. I can't wait to wear these all summer! April 29, 2013
Rated 5 out of 5 by michellew27 Perfect summer heel I got these in the bright coral. I read the other reviews, and knew to expect a more muted color, which I love. Super cute and seem like they'll be really comfortable. I can't wait to rock these when the weather's warmer. April 25, 2013
Rated 5 out of 5 by CBVS Classic style, Matches everything I originally bought these shoes in a 7.5 as I am usually a 7.5 or 8. I did however have to return the 7.5 for an 8. The shoe was so wonderful I went ahead and bought both colors, the coral and brown. The brown matched everything and the coral is a perfect color pop to a more neutral colored outfit. Bottom line, I ADORE these shoes. I get so many compliments and I can wear them for my 8 hour shifts at work and they don't make my feet ache like other heels do. April 17, 2013
Rated 5 out of 5 by Seventiesgirl Very cute sandals I got the bright coral and they're very pretty but the color is more like a soft salmon color as opposed to bright coral. I actually prefer the color so it's good for me. March 20, 2013
Rated 4 out of 5 by EmCSwin Cute, comfy & classic I purchased this sandal in blue & I finally have a shoe that goes with so many of my existing outfits that I never wear! I feel that I'll be able to keep this shoe in my closet for years to come. My only complaints are that the wood is really soft & after wearing only a few time I already have big dings & indents; also that the blue leather color has transfered to my toes/feet on several occasions. July 2, 2013
Rated 4 out of 5 by MustLoveShoes Cute Sandal This is a fun casual sandal that goes with many colors (I purchased the navy). I am usually a size 8 and the fit was true to size. My only complaint is that the wood just below the big toe chipped on the first day of wearing. June 12, 2013
Rated 4 out of 5 by Kate8 Hard to match I bought these sandals to match the Friday Clutch in Bright Coral. Sadly, the buckle sandal is more pink than coral and does not match the clutch. Otherwise, cute sandal. I found it was snug on my 8.5 feet. I wouldn't order a 9, but if you are on the border of sizing consider it. May 6, 2013

Fort Liard, N.W.T., nurse seriously injured in dog attack
A nurse who works at the health clinic was attacked by at least two dogs while walking on a remote gravel road by the airport.
The woman sustained serious bites to her scalp.
The dogs were roaming off leash during the attack.
"She was walking along as she came across several dogs that were actually with their owners and the dogs proceeded to attack her. Apparently she fell to the ground and she sustained quite serious injuries" said RCMP Cpl. Monica Schimanke.
The woman was later flown by air ambulance from Fort Liard to a hospital in Edmonton. She is expected to return home later this week.
The RCMP plans to meet with the community's chief to talk about dog safety. The community currently has no dog by-laws.
The RCMP said charges could still be laid.

None of my down comes from China. The 850 goose is from multiple European farms and the 750 duck is from France. My testing on the duck down showed it to be equal in performance to the 750 goose down. We really like the duck down we found. This down is white for a better price than grey goose and the white looks nicer in our lighter colored quilts. Is it as warm? Yeah. When I first tested 750 it actually lofted more than the 800 or 850 (different fill volumes to achieve same loft goal) so I expect zero loss in performance with just a small weight penalty. -Tim
Tim: Just bought the RevX 20. No need to reply to this, I know you are busy. Just a mid-week bump as well. Carry-on.
Cool Charlie! Hope you love it!There was a screw up with our 750 shipment. It was set to deliver yesterday but was packaged way wrong for us do it had to go back. It was never supposed to get picked up so they could repackage. Logistics! They are sending me one bag some I can get to work while they sort it. Should be here tomorrow. So still hoping to get this weeks stock orders out by Sat! Fingers crossed-Tim
Hi Tim, any updates for us on the Enigma? I'm sure I'm not the only one excited by and interested in it. Patiently (not so much) waiting to see it on your site.ThanksArt
Art,I'm so close. Have to call the cutting shop today about early templates. They are cutting a few for me but I guess there's a problem. Will be by end of the month for sure-Tim
Hey Tim,I see all these suggestions for more colors, options on down / etc. While I do see the potential benefit (to sales) of adding a "girly" color option, I do not think that adding stock fill options works as well with your business model of 'tiered product offerings'.I'm assuming that you still do custom jobs? The "elite" crowd knows what they want, and all the drop-down boxes in the world won't cover all those options. That is the beauty of the cottage industry in my view...agility! Who else could I have called (or emailed in this case) but Tim Marshall when I wanted a 900FP quilt with a 7D shell? You're one of the few guys out there that would even entertain the idea. Kudos for offering that level of service Tim, and don't think for a moment that it isn't appreciated!If that little blurb about duck down being more water-resistant than goose is true, then it's a hands down winner in my book and a good selling point on the RevX. Offering a more water-resistant down on an entry level quilt makes a ton of sense to me...especially since it gives a bit more fault tolerence for those 'oops' moments that every newbie is bound to encounter. (Like when your nalgene bottle develops a 'leak' when the top isn't tight, or when you bury your face inside a barely breathable bivy during the night and wake up soaked.) Now if only you could get that duck down treated to be hydrophobic on top of that inherit water-resistance...As far as the Epiphany goes, if you're going to add a nylon strip on the side, why not just do the whole top in a lightweight, breathable fabric (or a WPB/DWR fabric if moisture is an issue)? You'd still get the vapor barrier from the Cuben Liner without the slow loft/dry times (I'm assuming that's what you were shooting for). It could lower the price-point substantially and put the Epiphany more 'in-reach' price-wise (which I think has been the limiting factor on your past model as far as sales...It just cost too much for a few ounces shaved & a clammy sleeping experience imho.)Anyway Tim, keep up the outstanding work, your products are top-notch, can't wait to see this new Enigma quilt.-DaveA
I can tell you that getting 7d is expensive.It is available, and although I have yet to see a sample, the 7d available only saves 2 grams per square meter off the lightest 10d so it's really not worth the hype.Plus every fabric from the mill is very different in retrospect to what you want. 75% of the fabric orders you look at for a 1,000+ yard order will not have the right feel, mainley crinkley or not nearly soft enough.I totaly agree on the girly colors though.An aqua or fusha color would be such a girly thing that I could see it sell.
So the plan is for the new site to go live tomorrow night and a limited offering of sizes for the Enigma with it. You guys have been here for the whole thing so i'd love your help. Could you check it out tonight/tomorrow and let me know of any errors or mistakes I may have made?beta.enlightenedequipment.comThanks all.-Tim
Looks good Tim. A couple of comments:The pics with the orange strips at head/foot don't clearly show the baffle system, it's lost in the orange. The light green shows it better.On any of the Enigma quilts, when you first select one, the pic on the left is slightly blurry. When you click on the pic for the larger pic, that's in focus.I'd recommend making the extreme water resistant head/foot stripes as an option on the main ordering menu instead of having to click a link to order the option. So it would be the fourth selection (Size, Inside Color, Outside Color, Extreme WR Strips). Or at least put the link to the option with the other ordering options.The quilts look great, I think they'll be a big hit!
The only thing I dont really like on the beta site is Downtek plastered on every picture of the Enigma. Maybe its an advertising deal your involved in but it takes away attention of your company.
i find it interesting that you found no practical differences between similar fill goose and duck down ... most marketing spiels go off about the "superiority" of goose over duckthat ~700 fill power may be more suitable for real world humidity has been known for some time on BPLhttp://www.backpackinglight.com/cgi-bin/backpackinglight/forums/thread_display.html?forum_thread_id=39920Ryan Jordan ( ryan - BPL STAFF - M)Locale:Greater YellowstoneNEW Re: Re: Re: Introduction to Outdoor Retailer Summer Market 2008 on 08/10/2008 08:04:56 MDT Bill et al.,I spoke at length with IDFL yesterday about down testing.None of their tests stimulate real world testing. 900 fp in a test is going to be a pipe dream in the field, because they steam wash and dry the down to nearly zero humidity before doing the test. Ironically, this most recent iteration of test methods was designed to determine the maximum possible fill power for down rather than what it will look like in the field.Interestingly as a side note, we did some 900 fp testing of down a few years ago on two manufacturer's 900 bags. We cut the bags open and sent them to IDFL. Neither made the claimed 900 spec (they tested 830-870 using the steam method). What was more dramatic was that when each down (which clearly came from different sources as evidenced by visual inspection) was subjected to 50% humidity, the differences were pretty dramatic. One bag tested at 770 fp, the other at 680 fp. It seems that at least these two sources of 900 down had feathers in it that were not resilient in response to humidity.The kicker is that we ran the same test next to down taken from a manufacturer's 750 fp bag. at 50% humidity, the fp was 720. Why? It had more feathers that were stiff enough to preserve the loft in moist conditions.;)
Ive been waiting along time to offer the Downtek. I'm a little excited:)Doug,Not sure what's going on with the pics. I'll have my web buddy give a look before we stick it in the root. I tried to add the stripes to the product page but it's a huge pain in the ars, same with down overstuff. I can't just make them add ons I have to manually enter a price for every possible combination of options. -Tim

Tim,They look amazing. Congrats on the new lineup. Small comment, the photo's for the 0* are labeled as 10* - Greg
0 30 and 50 are borrowing pics from the 40 20 and 10 that I have here. Once I get those done they'll get their own pics
I checked out your beta website and had a few comments on the site.It mentioned the optional Weather Resistant Stripes in the description, but there didn't seem to be an option to add that to the quilt when placing an order unless I clicked on the "Extreme Water resistant fabric stripes at the head and foot" under Materials. It seems like it would be better if this was an option when selecting the quilt. The text on the pictures seem a bit blurry.Also, on the page for Weather Resistant Stripes, it list three colors (Aspen Green, Sedona Sage and Blaze Orange), but only shows pictures of two colors.When you click on the Tag for the temperature rating (http://www.beta.enlightenedequipment.com/?product_tag=10), the spacing is off and the price is wrapped on some products, but not others.
Anybody have thoughts on the new sizing structure or specs tables?-Tim
Looks very good Tim, Christmas is coming :-)
Hey Tim,How about a black color option for the Waterproof Strips? Also, some info on the tech specs of the fabric would be a good addition. When do you plan to offer them in a wide?I wonder how the 850 DownTek would fare in the 50% humidity versus the 750 Duck?-Dave
Edited by thedavil on 10/20/2013 23:22:16 MDT.
Your quilts shrunk?! Must be from the flat foot box. Your six foot quilts used to fit me (6' 1") very well. Is that still true? And how do you select which width to get?There also used to be a chart that had a range for height, do you still have that? Other than that looks great! -James
Edited by jdegraaf on 10/20/2013 23:26:37 MDT.
Dave,50% is less than than the humidity used to determine fill power and the EN 13537 ratings. So, it will provide more insulation than the specs.

Dr. Sean Comstock's Ratings
Had to wait a long time to see this Dr. My visit lasted for max 10 mins. Saw me in exam room, he doesn't do files, he wants to know from me what is wrong. Fair game, I explained my symptoms, and he had me do some basic movements. He said he would have to do my operation over again, with more nuts and bolts, and because I smoke my chances of survival were low. I could face death. He recommended Lyrica to my Family Dr. Lyrica is a drug used for seizures,and an anti-anxiety drug. He never offered a plan of physio, aqua or cortisone shots. I would rather take a synthetic compound that is similar to what the human body produces. He was abrupt and had no bed side manner. I am already wearing the patch and now consider myself a non-smoker, and I know that smoking can slow the healing process. My family doctor has done more for me, and has explained my condition to me in a humane fashion. Not impressed. Plus fee to leave Island and parking,gas. I will stick with my Family Dr.

He is very knowledgeable,has a good bedside manor and compassionate. I am having another surgery with him Jan 2013. I would highly recommend him as an orthopedic spine surgeon.

College Football's Assistant Coach of the Year
Lsu's John Chavis Captures The 2011 Broyles AwardView Press Release
December 6, 2011; Little Rock, Ark. - The nation's top team now officially has the nation's top assistant coach. Louisiana State University Defensive coordinator John Chavis is the 16th recipient of the Broyles Award, given annually to the top assistant coach in college football. Chavis was honored, along with his fellow finalists, at a Tuesday luncheon at the Peabody Hotel in Little Rock. The winner receives a large Broyles Award plaque, a watch, a custom-made sport coat and a personalized Broyles Award Trophy valued at more than $5,000. Afterwards, the winner and his spouse are flown to Orlando to represent the award at The Home Depot College Football Awards Show broadcast on ESPN.
Complete list of the 2011 Broyles Awards finalists:
There are few coaches whose efforts have forever impacted the game of college football. Bear Bryant, Knute Rockne, Frank Leahy and Eddie Robinson have set the standard for victories and championships on the gridiron. However when it comes to selecting, developing and producing great assistant coaches, the legacy of Frank Broyles stands alone. Former Broyles assistant coaches who have become head coaches have gone on to coach in 20 percent of all Super Bowls and win almost 15 percent of all Super Bowl titles plus five national collegiate championships, more than 40 conference titles and more than 2,000 games. More than 25 Broyles assistants went on to become head coaches at the college or professional level, including: Joe Gibbs, Hayden Fry, Raymond Berry, Jimmy Johnson, Johnny Majors, Jackie Sherrill and Barry Switzer. In 1996, the Broyles Award was established to recognize the dedicated, hard-working assistants like those who worked for Broyles, and to date, seventy plus finalists and fifteen winners have been honored. Like many of Broyles' assistants who went on to do great things, numerous coaches recognized by the Broyles Award have since remained in the spotlight, with 20 percent of finalists and winners going on to become head coaches. The finalists are chosen by a 10 person panel that may be the most prestigious of any awards panel, representing 10 national championships, more than 2,000 victories, over 70 conference titles, 154 bowl game appearances and 13 national head coach of the year honors. Broyles Award Panelists: Former Arkansas Athletic Director and Coach Frank Broyles, former Georgia Coach Vince Dooley, former Washington Coach Don James, former Syracuse Coach Dick MacPherson, former Baylor Coach Grant Teaff, former Brigham Young Coach LaVell Edwards, former Iowa Coach Hayden Fry, former Oklahoma Coach Barry Switzer, former Tennessee and Pittsburgh Coach Johnny Majors, and former Florida State University Coach Bobby Bowden.
Each NCAA Division I head coach may nominate one of his assistants for the Broyles Award. Every assistant that is nominated, but not selected as a finalist, receives a personalized wall plaque recognizing his efforts. The finalists are chosen by a nine-man panel that may be the most prestigious of any awards panel, representing eight national championships, more than 1,600 victories, over 60 conference titles, 124 bowl game appearances and nine national head coach of the year honors.
*Denotes players under Broyles, not assistants
The Broyles Award is a member of the National College Football Awards Association (NCFAA). The NCFAA was founded in 1997 as a coalition of the major collegiate football awards to protect, preserve and enhance the integrity, influence and prestige of the game's predominant awards. The NCFAA encourages professionalism and the highest standards for the administration of its member awards and the selection of their candidates and recipients. For more information, visit the association's official Web site, www.NCFAA.org.

Comments about Yamaha A-Series All Solid Wood Dreadnought Acoustic-Electric Guitar with SRT Preamp/Pickup:
This guitar is a fantastic instrument for the money. It has everything I wanted in a performing and recording guitar and then some. The electronics are above average for guitars in this price range although I've found the preamp to be a little short on volume compared to some other guitars I've played. You really have to crank it to play straight into a PA as well as the input volume on the PA so an outboard preamp or a DI box like the Baggs Para DI might be helpful in that regard but not essential. The tonewoods used in this guitar are, in my opinion, perfect for the singer/songwriter or rythm guitarist. The mahogony body and spruce top blend together to create a warm, balanced midrange that blends well with my voice. The guitar was a little "subdued" sounding when I first got it. Not much projection and sort of flat sounding but the electronics were so impressive that I bought it anyway in the hopes that, being an all solid wood guitar, the acoustic tone would improve after being played a while. As it turns out I was right. Both the electrified and unplugged sound of the guitar have improved makedly over the past year or so. I suspect that Yamaha is using a somewhat less intensive curing process for the woods on these A series guitars than they do for their higher end acoustics so expect a break-in period before you begin to get that deep, rich acoutic tone that only an all solid wood instrument can give you. Also I would not recommend using a humidifier on this guitar unless you live in a very dry climate. I bought one with the guitar and after using it once it absolutely killed my tone. If in doubt get yourself a hygrometer to measure the humidity of the area where you store your guitar and the inside of the guitar case. As I mentioned above the electronics on this guitar are amazing for a guitar in this price range. You get mic emulation and a resonance control that allows you to dial in how much "air" or body resonance you want in your signal. You get controls that emulate different types of mics and a push button that gived you "focused" or "wide" mic position emulation which is great for switching between strumming and finger picking. Beyond that you get a 3 band EQ, a tuner THAT WORKS and a feedback busting notch filter that also works great. Other features that I think are notewothy are: the slightly wider string spacing which is great for those of us who do much fingerpicking, the VERY nice hardshell case it comes with, the unfinished neck, the nice wood binding and rosette, the ebony fretboard, and last but not least it comes with not one but two sturdy metal strap pegs so you dont have to go voiding your warranty drilling into your brand new guitar so you can wear it in a standing position without having to resort to shoe laces. The only thing that I would change about this guitar would be to have a bone nut and saddle come with it from the factory. I think that Yamaha could do that and still remain competetive price-wise. Other than that I think that this guitar is a keeper and I expect to get many years of use and enjoyment out of it.

I had hoped for a better sounding guitar. I had played the laminate version and liked it and assumed the solid wood upgrade would be even better. I was wrong.

Comments about Yamaha A-Series All Solid Wood Dreadnought Acoustic-Electric Guitar with SRT Preamp/Pickup:
Not a bad guitar. Not the best gitar I have ever played. This guitar is well made, good materials and consistant factory production. Good playability and moderate projection.
Not my favorite guitar but a good.
I do not own this guitar. I am very familar with Yamaha and this name means quality.
But the down side is that Yamaha makes every thing well and not too many things superb in terms of guitars
Best Uses
Comments about Yamaha A-Series All Solid Wood Dreadnought Acoustic-Electric Guitar with SRT Preamp/Pickup:
After a full year of playing EVERY acoustic on the market, the choice always came back to this guitar.
Un-plugged the sound is full when strumming, and pristine when playing notes.
The ebony fretboard is a dream to play, the setup and string height are SPOT-ON!
The electronics blow away any other preamp by a long shot. This is a recording engineers dream!
You can not find a better acoustic-electric at ANY price - I played them all and money was no object, it all came down to sound, versatility, and playability.
The bonus, this guitar comes in a beautiful hard-shell case (that's actually nicer thean the case my new Les Paul Custom came in). It also includes a professional rubber soundhole cover, to block feedback when the guitar is played on a loud stage or studio setup.
This guitar is PRO in every way.
Bottom line - Taylor should be worried... VERY worried!

Comments about Yamaha A-Series All Solid Wood Dreadnought Acoustic-Electric Guitar with SRT Preamp/Pickup:
This guitar is for anyone who ever desired the middle range Taylor quality, but had much less to spend. I had instant connection with this instrument. The electronics will permit dozens of amplified tones not matter what style you play. Unplugged, this is the best sounding guitar I have ever played.

Mac artist to show work
June 17, 2011
MacMurray College Assistant Professor of Art Khara Koffel, a Montgomery County native, has had one of her works accepted to a national, juried show sponsored by the Lexington (KY) Art League.
The work, "for reasons more than one" (pictured left and attached), is a recreation of a blueprint, originally created by the artist's father, of her childhood home. The work is drawn with cinnamon, whose aroma is known for its calming and anti-anxiety effects.
The work, selected from among more than 1,200 submitted, will be part of the Lexington Art League's "More is More," exhibit, which runs July 22 through Sept. 10. The show, open to artists working in any media, explores the concepts of multiples, repetition or abundance.
In 2000, she received her bachelor's in Studio Arts and Art History from Juniata College in Huntingdon, PA, and, in 2003, an MFA in sculpture and photography from the University of Alabama. She resides in Jacksonville with her husband, Marc Benner.

Thank you all--it's been a wonderful week and I'm honored to be part of the eGullet family. I'm not sure how the drawing for books is handled but I imagine our group leader will let us know so I can arrange to have them sent. Don't forget to send me updates on some of the tips and techniques we've discussed. My email is email@example.com. May your bread always rise!

Alyssa Gracik is Jeff Janis' Girlfriend
What are we going to file this one under? BROADS! Meet Alyssa Gracik. She's Jeff Janis' girlfriend. He's the third receiver the Green Bay Packers drafted last month.
Seventh round. He went to Saginaw Valley State. She went to Central Michigan. They are both from Tawas City, Michigan, which is kind of in the northeast part of that dumpy-ass state. But it's not in the U.P., which is really just part of Wisconsin, anyway.
So yeah, we're guessing they were the high school sweetheart types. She was probably captain of the cheerleading squad. I mean, she looks like she was captain of the cheerleading squad…
