Researching online communities is an ongoing process. The concept itself is not physical enough to grasp so immediately. I think that the best way to know if an online community or network is indeed functional is to reflect on past experiences with specific platforms. We learn best by getting our hands dirty. Mistakes are the best possible outcome for anyone diving into a new subject matter.
I think that the best way to approach an online community is with an open mind and a high tolerance for annoying people (usually a given). Online communities are very specialized, as they strive to differentiate themselves from competing services. This dynamic encourages users like us to scan our options before diving in. Design should be held to the bare minimum functionality; one shouldn't stress about joining a service that doesn't feel like a natural fit to them. If anything, this mentioned stress will only hinder whatever project they're working on. It's plain easier to make your customers happy if you greet them with enthusiasm.
My scope of online communities is already quite broad. I have a ton of past experience with them. Yet, as a result, I feel the need to reduce this chaos to as few services as possible. It's hard to say what I would like to learn about online communities, because I'm not currently struggling with any.
Maybe we should consider the next steps: how will we be communicating with each other in five years' time? Or ten? But that's another topic entirely.

Going Slow
This week is slow for two reasons:
1. We are all on the mend from strep throat. Yes, all five of us got it to varying degrees.
2. I am buried in planning next year, I will post about this in the future I am sure. This is the first year I am really getting detailed in my planning. I think it will serve us better in the long run.
The photo was taken today. As you can see, the southern states are finally getting rain. Now that my kids are getting better, they are itching to get outside and play again. I'll have more blog material soon.
Links I Liked
Here are some great articles I enjoyed this week. If you follow me through Facebook, you may have seen a couple of these. If you don't, there are a lot more than just these over there. Have a great weekend!
The Strongest Women In America Lives In Poverty With the Olympics on the horizon, this article about one of the US's top chances at gold, touches on an even larger issue: Is image still everything?
10 Things I Want my Daughter to Know Before She Turns 10 or in my case before my daughter turns 12, is one I read aloud to my daughter. I don't know how much of it sank in, but it won't be the last time I go over these points with her.
The Homeschool Scientist explains the Higgs boson and why it matters to us all. It isn't every day a major scientific discovery happens.
The Chemistry of Fireworks is a great video to follow up with your children if they have ever asked how on earth they make those glorious fireworks.
If there are ways to do the lesson in a fun way, by all means do that! Yet, sometimes you just have to get through an undesirable chore, lesson, or other event. At those times, it is good to be able to focus and get through it. I call this puppy training. They have to train their pups no matter what kind of tricks they pull, and believe me, they can be very cunning.
Tricks their puppies use:
- Distraction: Their minds jump subjects or their bodies feel twitchy. Sometimes they think of a million things they need to be doing right then.
- Pity: I think of this as that sad puppy dog face. Why are you doing this to me? What did I do bad?
- Anger: If they fall for the pup's tricks, they get mad at themselves and then they really can't think. It's just another puppy trick! When they are mad, the work is avoided.
- Resistance: Sometimes all the pulling in the world won't make a stubborn puppy cooperate. Best to use a treat. Make a promise of a reward if the pup will get let them get their work done.
The kids like thinking of this side of themselves as a trainable puppy. They would never be angry with a puppy for just being a puppy, but they also know they have to figure out the best way to get the puppy to behave so that they can get the results they want. Keeping this degree of separation allows them to not take it so personally and to treat themselves a little nicer, like the sweet pups they really are.
Lost River Cave: Bowling Green, KY
Lost River Cave has a rich history. Native Americans used it during the hot summer months. Later, it was used by settlers. During the civil war, it stored supplies first for the confederates before later being discovered by the union army. After southern reconstruction, a mill was built in the entrance to the cave, but it burned three times. It is even told that Jesse James and his men used the cave. In the 30's it was a nightclub and the most popular spot in town because it was the only place with air conditioning. After air conditioning became common, the cave became an illegal dump until a nonprofit decided to clean it up and make it into what you see today.
The tour is a boat ride through a few large caverns with interesting geological formations. I wish I had some pictures, but nothing turned out. Suffice it to say it was cool and fascinating.
And, just like a fairy tale, there is often a cruel twist. The stories of the deaths that have happened here were shocking. Entire wagons, horses and crews fell off the path and into the pools never to be seen again. Swimmers would jump in never to resurface, nor did their would be rescuers. For years the pools were thought to be haunted, cursed, or bottomless. Measurements were taken that gave differing results. They now know the bottom is full of holes and tubes with the river's current being pulled through. These picturesque pools run swift and deep.
The last stop for us was sluicing for minerals and fossils. My kids love this. We purchased a bag (either fossils or minerals) and poured it into a sieve which was then swirled in the troughs of running water to reveal their treasure. The bags were full of great things, but the best find was when my kids followed the water and discovered eddies that contained piles of sand from previous little miners. When they put these piles through the sieves, they discovered several treasures that had been left behind. My eagle-eye husband found several more just walking along and looking in the grass underneath the trough. If not for the heat, my little treasure hunters would have stayed there all day!
Picky about My Produce
Bulk Natural Foods. We ordered peaches and blueberries. Ever since I began making a greater effort to buy locally and directly from farmers, I have become spoiled to great tasting produce. So much of the produce at the grocery market is grown for its shelf life and appearance. This makes perfect sense from the store's perspective, but not for me.
Two years ago, I received a bucket of tiny filthy apples that were red and green with spots all over them. I thought I would make applesauce from them until I ate one. It was the best tasting apple I had had in years! These apples were picked from an apple tree that had been forgotten and neglected for years. They were ugly but fabulous! I have been picky about produce ever since.
Every diet out there has vegetables as a high priority. You can't go wrong by eating more veggies and fruits. Aside from ordering from Bulk Natural Produce, there are several other things I do to get the best quality food into my house:

- Grow my own. I have a small garden and it doesn't produce enough to stock up for the winter, but it gives us a chance to have some great tasting heirloom veggies.
- Visit the local farmers markets and fruit stands, get to know the sellers, and ask questions. Did they grow their own? Or did they go over to Aldi an buy a bunch of fruit to resell. I have seen someone do this.
- Join a CSA (Community Supported Agriculture) and get a regular delivery of farm fresh produce or, as in our case, grass pastured meats.
- Gleaning. Before the supermarkets, there was mother nature. There are wild blackberries along the country roads (or greenways) just begging to be picked. With prices at close to $5.00/pt. at some of the markets, it is really worth it to stop and pick a bag.
The temperatures are 100+ this week.
My husband enjoyed raspado for a cool treat as a boy in Panama. Here, we call it a snow cone. But then he added the snow cap... sweetened condensed milk. Oh, boy! Snow cones have never been the same since!
Keep cool during this insane heat. And please don't let your pets suffer.
What If They Change Their Minds?
|Photo: FreeDigitalPhotos.net
If I am completely honest, I have to admit I avoid the road that takes me past their old school if possible. When we do have to go by, it never fails that one of the kids will comment about their old school. Their comments are filled with nostalgia. I can't help but ask them about it.
Do you miss it? Do you want to go back?
I fear the answer will be yes. I worry they will want to go back to school because it matters to me what they want. So far, every time I pose the question, the answer has been no.
No way! Nope. Are you kidding?
And I feel relief and vindication at getting that answer. The thoughts fill my head...
See! This is better! They LOVE it!
But what if they didn't? What if the answers start to come back with less certainty? What if they said...
Maybe. I don't know. It might be nice.
What would I do then? Would that change anything? Would their wanting to go to school outweigh the benefits of homeschool?
No! Not yet! Maybe later.
Homeschooling is full of moments where doubt creeps in, but there is no reason to borrow trouble. Homeschooling has been the right choice for us and I do not think that will change any time soon. I have to remind myself that I will handle the future when it gets here. If the circumstances change, if my children change their mind, or it no longer seems the best for any other reason, I will consider those new developments at that time. For now, homeschooling is exactly right for us as a unit and for each individual as well.
And really, that is all I need to know to continue on.

Canada's real gross domestic product (GDP) fell 0.1 per cent in January due in part to sagging construction and diminishing output from real estate professionals.
"Construction fell 0.4 per cent in January. Both residential and non-residential building construction were down, while engineering construction was up," an official Stats Canada release states. "The output of real estate agents and brokers decreased 5.7 per cent in January, a fifth consecutive monthly decline. The decline was mainly the result of weakness in the home resale market in Alberta and Saskatchewan."
January's slight decline follows an uptick of 0.3 per cent in December.
The banking sector, meanwhile, enjoyed a slight increase.
"The finance and insurance sector was up 0.2 per cent in January following a 1.3 per cent gain in December," the release states. "Both banking and insurance services increased while financial investment services declined."
Interestingly, oil and gas extraction rose in in January to 2.6 per cent after a notable (2.1 per cent) decline in December.
"Non-conventional oil extraction posted a notable gain, following two consecutive monthly declines, as production rose following maintenance in the fourth quarter at some oil sands facilities," the release states. "However, both conventional crude petroleum and natural gas extraction were down in January."
Crude oil prices continued to decline in January, following a downward trend started in July 2014.

No-one to hold my hand; unauthorized 12 foot track. 13 March 2009
Imagine running the 6 Foot Track in March and not seeing another person. Better still, run from the Explorer's Tree in Katoomba to Jenolan Caves, then turn around and run back and not see one runner. Sometimes you just want to go for a run on a trail. And after a crap run at 6 Foot last year I decided I would get the best of both worlds: I would fly to Sydney to watch the 6 Foot Track Marathon but arrive a day earlier and run an unofficial 12ft Track, solo. Some runs you will always remember. Even without anyone to share my 12ft experience, this was one of those runs: one I will always remember.
Tim dropped me at the Tree as the first light was breaking through the low, thickset mountain cloud cover. I had my ceremonial picture taken in the gloomy shadow of the tree then walked off into the bush at 6:40 am. I was not the least bit concerned about pace. For once I would be just running for the sake of it. No race. Just me and the track.
The steps down Nellies Glenn were slippery and I took my time. Despite walking most of the way, or perhaps because I was walking, I still managed to slip and land fair on my backside. Ouch. Ego hurt more than my rear.
The bird-life was rousing with the breaking light and the whip birds pierced the stillness. Along the sandy white road I managed to ease into a trot but it was clear I was not going to break any speed records today. Care not.
Into the paddocks of Megalong Valley and the dew on the grass was thick. I remembered crunching through frost here on previous authorized 12ft runs in winter. Not today. The humidity was high but the clouds were blocking out the sun. Kangaroos watched me inquisitively before loping off. They cleared the fence effortlessly. I used the stile. I went to hide some coke in the traditional hiding spot in the hollow of the tree at the road crossing but opted for the bushes instead. I had visions of people swarming all over in the evening as they set up for 6ft.
Climbing Pinnacle Hill the sweat started to bead on my nose. The day was warming. The humidity made my damp clothes cling to me. Flocks of Gang Gang parrots swooped past with their staccato cries. The bird life was amazing. I deviated off the track to visit the memorial plaque on a tree on top of the hill: "Robert John Webb 1949-1992 His spirit runs free." I looked up the valley at the view and reflected on how lucky I was to be out here.
The single track down into the Cox River valley is always a great run. The only impediment: the cobwebs across the track and the occasional gate to open and close behind me. Yellow tail black cockatoos screeched their long wailing calls all around me. Truly magnificent birds. A solitary wallaby took fright and plummeted through the bush to escape. The rumblings of the river could be heard echoing up the valley. I was at one with the trail.
The river was low but I thought I would chance the rocks. They were treacherously slippery and I ended up shimmying across on my bum. Dry feet though. No campers. Empty. The slow drizzle had settled into rain. I sat under the shelter and ate some creamed rice. I checked the tank for water for the return trip and headed off into the hills.
I stashed another coke here. I contemplated 850 runners ploughing through the river then drudging up this hill. The climbing was hot work. The sweat not only dripped from my nose now but also mixed with the rain and dripped from the brim of my cap. The rain eventually stopped but the hill kept going.
Down into Alum Creek valley and my feet got wet at the small river crossings. Kangaroos were out grazing in the dull light. The clouds hung low over the surrounding peaks. I was moving freely now running the downs and flats. The climb up Pluvi was long but not taxing. The track was in great condition. Big spots of rain fell intermittently and I took off my cap to let the cool water splash on my bald pate.
The Black Range road seemed ominously empty. But the wildlife made up for it. Small wallabies occasionally thumped away. A lyrebird scurried from side to side before finding an escape route. Another took off as if it was flying on the run. More black cockatoos serenaded from above. Their huge graceful wing strokes weaving through the treetops as their 'creaking-door' like cries rang out. They seemed oblivious to my presence. It was just me and my footprints.
Deviation campground was empty. I refilled my bottles from the tank. Across the Caves Road and the final stretch into Jenolan Caves. Not even any tourists out on the paved trail. I had gone the entire way seeing only one farmer in his ute.
I ordered some lunch and by chance ran into Dog, Bernie, Sarge and Seris so sat and ate in company. A 45-minute break and I had to then carry my overfull stomach back up the steep climb. At the top I met an RFS ute checking the track and I directed them to the only tree across the path. The undulations back to the road crossing eased me into my stride. I decided to put my ipod on and up the pace a little.
More lyrebirds on the Black Range Rd. Or maybe the same ones back again. The rain started coming down. This time real rain. Heavy, soaking rain. Rivulets down my neck. The wide road was awash, turned into a stream with the puddles forming billabongs. The music pumped my legs and the pace kept me warm.
Down Pluvi, picking a path as the trail rushed up to meet me. The small creeks before Mini Mini blended with the wet track. The rain eased and the low clouds hung like halos around the peaks. The climb up Mini was the toughest for the day. The late afternoon light was fading. The distant escarpment was shrouded in white mist. I was cocooned in my own little world amongst the enormity of the landscape. I stopped on the hill where Tim and I had paused on my first run here in 2005. His prophetic words in his race report: "if Whippet were a girl I would have held his hand" as we watched the sunset glow on the escarpment, echoed in my ears. Not this time. I was alone. And the orange glow was replaced with wispy white cloud. But I could not be more at peace.
After the long downhill the coke was a treat. When I entered the Cox River camping area the place was abuzz with RFS people setting up for the race next morning. I wandered through and filled my bottles from the tank. No-one seemed to notice me, almost like I was cloaked. I waded the river and began the long climb back to Megalong Road.
There were no cobwebs and the rain had stopped. I was running hard now. Running up the hills. Well within my comfort zone. Singletrack with just enough technical to make it challenging. The stimulating blend of rock music and coke fuelled me. The fading light added incentive.
The cows in the open paddocks of Pinnacle Hill were not impressed at my intrusion. One decided to follow me. The next turn and a huge bull eyeballed me. His unbroken stare followed my nervous path before him. I scampered across the next stile, relieved. I rang Tim to organise a pick-up. He had a special relationship with these cows and I blamed him for their scary tactics.
It was dark as I reached the road and my last bottle of coke. I resisted my headlight, opting to run in the dim light, feeling the trail with my feet. Once on the long white sandy road towards Nellies Glenn I relented and pulled out my light. I was still running strong, despite the continual climbing. I looked at my watch and realised I was making good time on return. I ran almost to the sign at Nellies then pushed solidly up to the steps. I focused on each step. Each step brought me closer to the top. They went on forever but my stride was unbroken.
Finally the sandstone rocks of the final stretch. I imagined how in but a few hours hundreds would fly down here elbow to elbow. Not me. I had it all to myself. As I jogged the final steps to the tree headlights pulled off the highway and Tim arrived right on que. 9:05. Another photo. Cold, wet, but elated. 849 runners would run the 6ft Track the next day. They would experience a truly great race. I got to experience a truly great trail.

Recommending a one-size-fits-all electrical system for your boat is impossible. No two boats are alike. We can give you some guidelines on the basic marine and electrical components you want to be aware of.
One thing we know for sure is the electrical system on your boat is very different than the electrical system in your home. For one, houses don't float (unless it's a houseboat!)
Water is an excellent conductor of electricity. There are a lot more rules for boats about installation and materials used than for your home. To get the latest standards for marine electrical systems, visit the U.S. Coast Guard website.
Substandard wiring and electrical components can cause serious trouble. Chronic battery drain, frequent system failures, and worst case - a fire - are common.
So, first up is battery management. Your marine battery starts the motor and powers your instrumentation and lighting. Battery capacity depends on the load. Weight is another consideration because marine batteries are heavy. You'll want to think about how the weight of the battery will affect the weight distribution on your boat.
Next to consider is an ignition-protected battery switch. You want a marine-grade switch that can withstand the corrosive marine environment. The switch turns all of the electrical power off. If you think you may want to add a second battery down the road, buy a switch that can handle two batteries. This will save you from needing to buy a second switch.
To protect the electrical circuit, you'll need a marine-grade fuse block near the battery switch. If you overload the wiring, it will get hot and melt and likely start a fire. Be sure to buy a fuse block with two fuse holders so you'll have a spare on hand should the fuse blow. Remember, the fuse is there to protect the circuit.
Finally, installing a voltmeter is one of the most cost-effective actions you can take. Both high and low voltages can cause premature motor failure and damage to electrical equipment.
Nothing will ruin a boat outing faster than having to be towed back to shore or needing to put out a fire. A safe reliable electrical system is crucial to a quality boating experience.
Give our technical experts a call. They can answer all your boat electrical questions.

Q. I have some major issues with a pool installation done by Namco. A Namco pool installer surveyed my property prior to the install. I made purchases based on his recommendations to achieve a pool flush with a deck at a height where it can be attached. That meant buying a pool at double the cost.
On the day of work the installer demanded an additional $350 or he would not dig. For a total of $2,400 for the installation, I was left with a crooked pool that in some places is three feet from the deck and two feet above it.
In addition, he had me order way too much gravel (and left behind the remainder), damaged our fish pond, driveway, yard and fire pit, and drained our well after being told not to use that water.
I ended up with a junk pool for my two kids that they can't use. Could you please help? � Eric Moyen Jr., Gardner
A. What a mess. Given that it's swimming time, I'm sure having that in front of your face every day makes it sting even more.
Often, these sorts of situation could be prevented by doing due diligence, but in this case there's not some smoking gun that you missed.
It's not entirely clear why this installation went so badly, but it certainly warrants a quick remedy.
Because of the extent of the problems, Namco said rather than just having the pool reinstalled, your case is in the hands of insurance companies.
"We have spoken with Mr. Moyen on several occasions and corresponded through many emails and photos to gain a full scope of the corrections to be made," said David Buser, Namco's senior manager for installations and services. "We've also had a representative of Namco visit the Moyen property to get a first-hand perspective of the area. Through all of these communications and claims the decision was made to involve our insurance company and the insurance company of the installer to address each and every point Mr. Moyen has expressed."
Unfortunately, Namco has not made clear when this will result in any action or what the resolution will be. Filing complaints with the attorney general, Division of Consumer Affairs, and Better Business Bureau is in order. That can both help you and inform others.

How to Lose Weight?
This is a vast topic which covers a large amount of information. However, we will confer the main steps to be followed to lose weight and maintain a healthy life.
1. Count down Calories:
A Calorie is the energy consumption through eating and drinking. It is essential for health; however, it is more important to take in the right amount. The high amount or low-calorie consumption will definitely lead to excessive weight gain or health related issues.
2. Cut back Carbohydrates:
Carbohydrates are the main culprit of weight gain. It is essential to intake necessary amount of carbohydrates. Yet, it may bring adverse effects like excessive weight gain, diabetes etc when it is taken in the disproportionate amount.
3. Do Concentrate on Diet:
As we have already mentioned the intake of food is the main component to be considered to reduce weight. Your daily eating habit should give you the optimum energy required without affecting your metabolism. Each day meal should contain proteins, fat and low carbohydrate vegetables.
4. Work Out Well:
If the diet is one end, Workout is another end of the health balance. To burn the excess calories work out is a must and make it regular to exercise so that you don't have any side effect.
5. Sleep Soulfully:

The above steps would be really helpful for those who want to lose weight and maintain the physical fitness. Eat healthy, Stay healthy and live healthily

Me Into You Monograph
Me Into You is a 64-page limited edition monograph self-published in the summer of 2012 and chronicles my experiences in an open relationship. Images from the series can be seen here.
In his monograph essay about Me Into You, Allen Frame refers to the work's "radical content" and it is precisely this content that makes self-publishing so exciting. Commercial publishers tend to shy away from images as challenging as these and it is up to the artist and my contributors to bring this work to the world.
What is Me Into You?
Every relationship is a folding of one person into another. Me Into You explores the experience of becoming one with someone else, and where lines dissolve between individuals. In Me Into You, the emphasis is on the individual's experience within a community of lovers.
Through this process, I became very aware of society's relationship to sexuality, and began to focus on those secret places many people typically consider too private to share. The camera became an integral part of my intimate life - as the boundaries dissolved in my relationships, so, too did the boundaries of what I was willing to share through the lens.
Like Nan Goldin and Malerie Marder, Keren Moscovitch grounds her work in autobiography, exploring, she says, "what happens when one's intimate life starts to lack boundaries." Her picture of a couple in bed, simultaneously clinging together and breaking apart, suggests the fraught dynamic of an open relationship - a moment when tenderness and tension are in uneasy balance. -Vince Aletti
About the monograph
I see this book as a permanent exhibit of the work. By making it, I hope to expose my audience to a broader definition of intimacy, and to new ways in which individuals and communities connect and experience sexuality.
The 8x12" monograph includes 35 color photographs from the series as well as an essay by acclaimed photographer and writer Allen Frame. It was published through Edition One Books, features a soft-bound art-paper cover and is limited to 150 signed and numbered copies. A beautiful gold foil stamp title adds to the collectibility of this volume.

Brexit vote poses questions 'for the whole planet' - Hollande
French president Francois Hollande has said the British vote to leave the European Union poses questions "for the whole planet".
Mr Hollande vowed to maintain relations with Britain, notably concerning migrants crossing between the two countries and military and economic cooperation.
Speaking after a meeting in Paris with UN secretary-general Ban Ki-moon, Mr Hollande said: "For the entire planet there is a question, what will happen?"
He called for an orderly separation between Britain and the EU after Thursday's vote to exit the bloc, formed after two world wars to prevent new conflict via trade cooperation.
Mr Hollande, whose country was a founding pillar of European unity, is holding emergency meetings on Saturday with leaders of France's political parties as EU leaders try to keep the bloc from unravelling after the British vote.
France's foreign minister said he hoped Britain can name a new prime minister in the coming days to speed up its departure from the European Union.
But that timeframe is highly unrealistic given the political turmoil in Britain. Instead it is likely to take months to name a replacement to Prime Minister David Cameron, who is resigning and wants his successor to handle the departure negotiations.
Jean-Marc Ayrault said on Saturday "they must designate a new prime minister, which would certainly require several days".
He was speaking in Berlin alongside counterparts from the five other founding members of the European Union, as EU leaders try to keep the project from falling apart after British voters chose on Thursday to leave.

Ideas of Loft Bed with Desk and Stairs
Loft bed with desk and stairs – bedroom can definitely have stairs. Stairs help to make the transition from one level to another in a house, whether that level is a whole story or just a few feet's the difference between the two levels. The variety of spaces in a house used for sleeping quarters can make permanent stairs a necessity where a ladder or portable stairs becomes a torment.
One loft bed with desk and stairs can have a permanent stairway rather than a ladder. The stairs can actually be a part of the attic and part of the room below, with multiple landings that stores a wardrobe or any other part of functional furniture needed to the bedroom loft's occupants. The stairs are not usually encased in a bedroom loft to provide space above and below an air of openness.
12 Photos Gallery of: Ideas of Loft Bed with Desk and Stairs
Loft bed with desk and stairs has existed for a long time. Antique beds were often raised higher than modern beds; sleeper leaves no other option than to use a set of bed steps to climb in and out of bed. Bed ladder is portable and pressed up against the side of the bed, from which the sleeper will get in and out of bed. The steps can be set aside when not in use.

That's funny!
I read that magazine too. That's a funny story!lolol
Connie, thanks to you I was reminded that I needed to renew my subscription to Reminisce-went online and handled that!
An act of kindness is a gift given
Connie we had a a cleaning lady Mrs.Castle who used to come out with things like that.
One day she was on the phone to her hubby Stan and he was off to the library and she said "_Stan get me a nice book of friction"_
We were about 14 at the time and she couldn't get why we were rolling around laughing but the best was my older sisters wedding day.
We were all at the house getting ready and my sister was in my parents bedroom having hair and make up done and suddenly she is ready and we all go downstairs to wait for the car and she appears in her dress and veil and Mrs Castle without missing a beat says "_doesn't she look vaginal_ " so the whole of the church service all my mother saw was me and the bridesmaids shoulders shuddering with laughter
Mrs Castle was a family legend for her comments
O M G(gosh) TOOO Fuuunnnyyy! I can't wait to tell my sister that one! I just got such a rich visual of you guys in church, shoulders shaking and such a look on your faces while trying to look solomn. I'm laughing so much. thanx for making my day, Vicki.

Inherently Inhumane
Pro-whalers purport that whales can sustain commercial hunting, but many populations have not recovered to sustain hunting. All whales still face overwhelming odds for survival because of other threats from by-catch, toxic pollutants, climate change, anthropogenic noise, habitat destruction, over-fishing of prey species and ship strikes. Even if whale populations were sufficiently robust such that a resumption of commercial whaling could occur, the practice of whaling is inherently cruel. The most advanced methods can neither kill the animals instantaneously nor render them irreversibly insensitive to pain prior to death. The current criteria used to measure time to death is questionable, since the same weaponry is used on both small and large whales, and the whalers themselves are charged with collecting welfare data.
As the host and chair of the May 2007 International Whaling Commission (IWC) meeting in Anchorage, Alaska, the United States has the task of accommodating thousands of delegates and support staff, non-governmental organizations, reporters, security personnel and curious onlookers. The meeting's venue is no coincidence. The United States has been preparing for this year's meeting since the 2002 IWC meeting in Shimonoseki, Japan, when its request for a 5-year quota of bowhead whales for Alaskan Natives was blocked. Only later did the quota achieve final approval through a specially convened meeting. That precious quota expires next summer, so a new one will be requested this May. Not wanting a repeat of Shimonoseki, the sole focus of the Anchorage meeting for the United States is obtaining the bowhead whale quota, to the exclusion of all the many other decisive IWC issues.
The United States has treaded water over the course of the last four IWC meetings. Meanwhile, the pro-whaling nations have continued to push for a resumption of commercial whaling through initiatives such as recruiting countries to join the IWC and providing fisheries aid to make them vote in favor of a pro-whaling agenda. The United States is so preoccupied by its own mission that it is ignoring the much bigger issues facing the IWC, such as the shifting balance of power due to Japan's accelerated IWC recruitment drive, the growing call of cultural imperialism by some of the recruited nations, the passage of a pro-whaling declaration for the first time in decades at last year's meeting, and the simple majority the pro-whalers attained—if only by a single vote.
Japan and other pro-whaling nations began a new initiative to undermine the IWC's moratorium by convening a so-called "normalization" meeting in February 2007, aiming to restore an emphasis on regulating whaling. The United States at one point actually planned to attend, but then correctly chose to not participate. While this decision was welcome, the United States is glossing over the biggest potential threats to the moratorium: the latest Japanese proposal for a resumption of its small-type coastal whaling, coupled with its proposal for status reviews of the great whales listed on Appendix I of the Convention on International Trade in Endangered Species of Wild Fauna and Flora (CITES).
At the Anchorage meeting, Japan intends to propose that the IWC vote in favor of a resumption of its small-type coastal whaling, whereby small motorized fishing vessels hunt small cetaceans in nearshore waters. Japan has sought IWC permission for its coastal whaling for two decades, claiming that whalers in four towns have suffered economic hardship and a loss of culture because of the moratorium on commercial whaling. In fact, until Japan started its "research whaling" and flooded the market with whale meat, these coastal communities actually benefited from the moratorium as they continued to hunt small cetaceans, selling the fresh meat with little competition.
The practice of hunting small cetaceans is still conducted in Japanese towns such as Taiji, where the notorious dolphin drive hunts take place—primarily to sustain a growing demand for live dolphins for aquaria in recent years—as well as in other locations where the Institution for Cetacean Research also issues licenses for participation in Japan's North Pacific "research whaling" of great whale species. The fear of pollutant contamination in coastal species causes much of the meat to be unsafe, with large quantities being processed into pet food or fertilizer. At the special 2002 IWC meeting at which the bowhead quota was passed, the United States voted in favor of a Japanese small-type coastal whaling proposal for the first time, presumably in a deal with Japan to secure the bowhead quota. This year, Japan will massage its request to be more palatable by removing any hint of commerciality and by tweaking the cultural necessity angle.
The small-type coastal whaling proposal will, if approved, necessitate a partial lifting of the commercial whaling moratorium, unless Japan is able to convince the IWC that its whalers" needs are subsistence, similar to those of Alaskan whalers. AWI Quarterly readers may recall that the United States was in 1997 successful in convincing the IWC that the Makah Tribe of Washington State—which has no subsistence need and had not whaled in over 70 years—deserved a gray whale quota. Domestic litigation has prevented the Makah from whaling, except for the 1999 killing of a single whale who was essentially left to rot on the shore. The United States again plans to submit a joint proposal with Russia for a quota of gray whales at the Anchorage meeting, which will of course play directly into the hands of the Japanese, who may use this request to justify their own proposal.
If Japan prevails at the IWC meeting, then not only will the moratorium be compromised, but pro-whaling countries will have succeeded in paving the way toward a resumption of international trade in whale meat. All of the great whales are currently listed in CITES Appendix I, which bans international trade in their parts and products. The Appendix I listing is largely due to the IWC moratorium, and CITES member countries have also adopted a resolution that gives deference to the IWC over the management of whales. The next CITES meeting takes place in Holland shortly after the IWC meeting, and Japan intends to introduce a proposal for the status review of all whales to determine whether their Appendix I designation is warranted. Though resource intensive and unnecessary, with even a partial lifting of the moratorium, Japan's CITES proposal will be difficult to oppose.
The pro-whaling bloc will assuredly attempt to thwart the bowhead quota request again in Anchorage, and the United States, hobbled by its angst over this single issue, has not expended the effort or resources to prepare its opposition to this careful assault. Contrary to the wishes of the American people, the United States has lost its will to fight the whaling war and has concentrated only on the bowhead battle. It is clearly disengaged from this high-stakes game, in which Alaskan Natives have become unwitting pawns. The United States has the tools to outmaneuver the whalers, namely through domestic trade sanctions and strong political and diplomatic pressure, yet it chooses not to take action. The United States must acknowledge that being blinkered by this single issue while ignoring the bigger picture is equal to watching on as the death-knell for the whales—bowheads included—is being sounded.

Learning Management System Schoology Raises $32 Million
Cloud-based learning management system Schoology has received $32 million in Series D funding with investments by First Mark Capital, Intel Capital, and JMI Equity. The company will use the money to expand and improve the cloud through which learners, educators, and systems work and to increase its presence in more schools, colleges, and universities worldwide.
With the Series D investment, Schoology has accumulated a total of $57 million to grow and support its Learning Management System (LMS). Jordan Cook of TechCrunch says that the cloud-based technology allows teachers to easily create and share their materials and other sources with students.
Schoology tackles one major challenge by offering a single technology for personalizing education which also integrates with other solutions. Describing the issue, Schoology co-founder and CEO Jeremy Friedman said:
"The industry is littered with failed point solutions that didn't integrate easily and weren't easy to use – which resulted in extremely low adoption rates and failures to deliver real educational value."
Schoology instead lets third party applications offer a universal login for students and parents so that they can access all of their classes in one way, Education World reports.
Currently, Schoology is used in more than 130 countries by over 12 million people.
The Series D funding was led by JMI Equity, a firm with a previous record of investments in software and new technologies. JMI's General Partner Jit Sinha will be joining Schoology's board.
Founded in 2009, Schoology started with K-12 in an effort to help teachers and students improve the learning experience. Schoology's CEO said of the company's mission:
"With Schoology, teachers are able to assess students' progress through quizzes and assign personalized coursework to help that student through parts they find challenging."
Schoology attempts to align with the "needs and learning style of education in the real world," the company said.
Schoology currently offers a no-cost product for teachers across education levels and an enterprise-level service for school districts and higher education. Through its enterprise-level product, schools have more opportunities to improve upon the learning experience of students due to Schoology's ability to pair with back-end information databases.
With more than 1,000 enterprise customers, Schoology is a leading LMS provider in the country with the Los Angeles Unified School District among its top clients, TechCrunch reports.
At the university level, Schoology connects campuses, with students, administrators and educators being able to interact and share materials through its platform quickly and safely. According to Schoology, academic institutions can use a single LMS to teach and communicate as opposed to using various, non-integrable tools.
In 2015, Schoology acquired 400 new enterprise-level clients from K-12 through college, Pe Hub Network reports. Among the schools using Schoology are the St. Paul (MN) Public Schools, the Boise (ID) Independent School District, and Mohave Community College.

51 Ways to Reduce Plastic Use
Reduce your plastic use today!
I was so frustrated when I found out about the Pacific Garbage Patch (videos below). What is it? It's the largest landfill in the world, and it floats in the middle of the ocean.
When I learned about it, I scoured the internet for solutions. There are a few solutions that involve large scale clean ups, but the depressing truth is that it exists and we are complicit in its existence.
Being proactive is one solution. Reducing our plastic use and consumption is incredibly important. I tried to find a large list of ideas, but could only find scattered ideas, so this is one of my ways to pose a solution. A long, long list of ideas to change your life for the better of the ocean, the land, the environment and the earth we love so dear.
Live plastic free! It is possible.
Why is plastic bad?
Plastic is plentiful. Plastic is used for everything from shampoo containers to beverage and food containers to baby toys and the casing for many, many household items.
The immediate harms of plastic are few. The long term damages of small toxins in plastics are being researched. Plastics are created with the help of chemicals, and some are dangerous to us. Two in particular stand out: bisphenol A (or BPA, used in polycarbonates and resins) and phthalates (used to make plastic soft and pliable). Both chemicals upset the way some hormones function in our bodies. They are both now the subject of fierce scientific and public scrutiny. Many scientists have discovered a connection between plastic and human development. So much so that the European Union has banned phthalates in children's toys.
The effect of plastic on the environment is much easier to see. The trash island in the middle of the pacific ocean, named the pacific garbage patch, is an alarming result of our use of plastic. It is everywhere and it is slowly collecting in the middle of the ocean. Plastic cannot biodegrade.
We can help. We can limit our use of plastic and urge our legislators to ban plastic in children's toys and food and beverage containers. We can urge plastic manufacturers to develop biodegradable plastic.
We have to save ourselves and the planet!
Aluminum and Steel Beverage Containers
There are some pricey ones on the market, I found some on Amazon for $8! Being environmentally conscious doesn't have to be expensive.
51 Ways to reduce plastic use
or completely eliminate it!
What you've been waiting for, a long long list of ways you can reduce your plastic use. You probably know some already, but I hope that many of these ideas are new and do-able. Just think of the pacific garbage patch whenever you feel tempted to buy water, get a to-go cup or buy liquid laundry detergent.
Note: Many of these suggestions are to reduce your waste, which will in turn reduce your use of plastic trash bags.
Here we go:
1. Bring your own cloth bags to the grocery store (or any store!).
2. Don't buy beverages bottles in plastic. Glass is great.
3. Carry your own reusable steel or ceramic beverage container. If they're too pricey, use a glass mason jar! Heavy, but cheap.
4. Don't get to-go coffee or hot drinks. Your drink lid and cup will live on for over 100 years! The lids and lining are plastic. Bring your own or ask for a ceramic, reusable cup.
5. Go to the farmer's market and purchase fresh fruits and veggies (not packaged in plastic).
6. Don't buy convenience foods packages in plastic.
7. Make your own bread.
8. Buy bread from bakeries that package in paper.
9. Clean with baking soda and vinegar instead of cleaners packaged in plastic.
10. Buy laundry detergent in boxes, not liquid in plastic containers.
11. Buy farm fresh eggs in reusable paper containers.
12. Get your cheese from the deli and place it in your own container (glass or a plastic one that you already have, don't waste what you already have!) or get it wrapped in paper.
13. Buy your meat from the deli and have it wrapped in paper.
14. Package your leftovers in corningware.
15. Bring your own containers to restaurants to package leftovers.
16. Use bar soap to wash your dishes. Dr. Bronner's is perfect.
17. Stop using deodorant or antiperspirant. It's not natural to prevent yourself from sweating. Use perfume in a glass bottle if you want a nice smell.
18. Do not use air fresheners. Light a candle or incense instead.
19. Store all your food in glass containers. If you purchase something bottled in glass, clean it and reuse it!
20. Buy bulk cereal, bring your own paper bags.
21. Buy tortilla chips packaged in paper bags.
22. Buy bulk coffee packaged in paper or in cans, or bring your own bags.
23. Buy milk in paper cartons.
24. Buy peanut butter that is packaged in glass containers.
25. Buy bar soap, not liquid body wash.
26. Compost your trash, reduce your use of plastic trash bags.
27. Line small trash bins in your house with paper bags.
28. When ordering drinks, say "no straw please!"
29. Buy real maple syrup (comes in glass bottles) we get ours at Trader Joes.
30. Buy toilet paper that is wrapped in paper, not plastic.
31. Don't use ziploc. If you need to keep things like half an onion (happens to us all the time!) use aluminum or waxy paper.
32. Use cloth rags for clean up around the house, no paper towels - reduces your trash and need for trash bags.
33. Use matches instead of plastic encased lighters. They usually give them to you for free at the liquor store.
34. Use cloth napkins. They feel nice and reduce your waste and use of plastic trash bags.
35. If you want a fun drink, buy chocolate milk in a carton or apple juice in glass bottle. You can also ferment your own drinks in glass mason jars.
36. Bring your own bag to all stores you shop in and say "no bag needed, thanks!"
37. Put empty cardboard boxes in your car to transport heavy items to and from your car without a bag.
38. Say "paper not plastic" at the grocery store.
39. Don't use plastic cutting boards. Use wood or glass.
40. Use baby bottles made of glass.
41. Use stainless steel sippy cups for kids.
42. Use cloth based toys for your pets, like catnip mice and soft squishy balls.
43. Buy cloth diapers. Many great varieties available and better for your baby. We fill a super bowl size hole every day with disposal diapers that will leach toxins into the environment for centuries to come.
44. Buy CDs packaged in cardboard sleeves or buy your music online.
45. Use junk mail and other paper to stuff into big packages to ship instead of bubble wrap or air filled plastic.
46. Use real silverware for parties instead of plastic.
47. Use rechargeable batteries to reduce buying batteries packaged in plastic.
48. Make a compost heap to reduce your food waste and put it back into the earth.
49. Use a reusable cloth bag or old fashioned steel lunch box to carry your lunch to work or school.
50. Make your own yogurt in glass mason jars. It's easy!
Last but not Least!
51. Spread the word! Tell people about the harmful chemicals in plastic, the pacific garbage patch and help reduce plastic use by example!
Plastic Free Washing
Say bye bye to liquid and use these wonderful alternatives.
Chic Reusable Bags
Plastic and babies
A chemical used in plastic baby bottles and many other food and beverage containers causes genetic damage in mice. The study has prompted many countries into re-evaluating their use of plastic. There are two chemicals in particular to be worried about: Diisononyl phthalate (DINP) and bisphenol A (BPA). DINP is used to make plastic flexible and soft for those vinyl products such as bath books, rubber ducks and nipples for baby bottles. BPA is used to make polycarbonate plastic -- that hard, clear plastic used in baby bottles, sippy cups and numerous other everyday products.
The damage is seen in egg cells of female mice. When these cells try to divide, their chromosomes don't line up right. In humans this results in spontaneous abortion, birth defects, or mental retardation.
Scientists found that dangerous amounts of the chemical-known as BPA-can seep out of used plastic bottles.
Other animal studies have linked BPA to low sperm count, hyperactivity, early puberty, obesity, small testes size, and enlarged prostates.
Many countries around the world have responded by banning DINP and other phthalates from from infant and children's products and toys, including the European Union, Japan and California.
The debate around BPA is still ongoing.

its very good thought
Very interesting lens, thanks for sharing! If you get a chance check out my new lens on bottle-less water coolers - another way to reduce use of plastic: http://www.squidoo.com/bottle-less-water-coolers
I just moved back to Pasadena and evidently, in the LA metroplex, plastic bags are banned and they actually charge you for paper bags. They have pushed for you to bring your own bags and it's been a real eye opener as to what it can accomplish.
Very well done.
Really, really good ideas. Great job.
Thanks for the advice... great lens!
Plastic recycling is important but reducing plastic usage is our ticket to a healthier planet moving forward. Scientific research conducted by the Algalita Marine Research Foundation in the North Pacific Subtropical Gyre, brings news of a Great Pacific Garbage Patch, where bottle caps, cigarette lighters, shards of plastic and other plastic marine debris swirl endlessly, eventually photodegrading and impacting our food chain. The foundation's lab analysis results show that small bits of plastic outweigh the naturally occurring zooplankton 6:1. "More trash than life," as Algalita founder Charles Moore puts it. It remains to be seen what can be done, if anything, to remove existing plastic from our oceans. It's not just a matter of "cleaning up" unfortunately. New plastic garbage keeps flowing into our oceans from...us.

You will probably only find apartments in this area and it definitely has an inner city feel to it. Not a great place to raise a family, but perfect if you're on your own and want to be near restaurants and other businesses, but not too close.

I want to remember.
I want to remember how I almost burst from having too much joy at a little club filled with people and house music last night. It's not necessarily my scene, of course, but when there's a deejay pulling smiles from a plenty responsive crowd, a couple guys on drums keeping time, a trombone and a trumpet player going nuts on their horns, well, there's a reason I didn't leave until after 4. Where did that time go? The sun had already started to rise and I smelled something awful but, come on … Tokyo, you did it right last night.
I want to remember how easy it was to give into a smiling young crowd holding FREE HUGS signs. I took my photos and I shook off any reservations and I got my hug. For a guy wandering around a land and city he isn't known in for hours and hours on end, it was some kind of relief to connect with someone, even briefly.
I want to remember I went to the Lost in Translation hotel, even though I knew in my heart Bill Murray wouldn't be there to talk to.
I want to remember how tidy my lunch dishes looked, in the middle of a park and in the open air, when I ate something called that had chicken and eggs and rice in it. I want to remember the room service pizza and tiramisu still making my stomach happy.
I want to remember to wear socks. As much as I love my flips, miles of walking means the bottoms of my feet hate a little on me right now.
I want to remember the sense of adventure that gets renewed in this expansive country every single day. Tomorrow I visit a busy fish market along with a new photographer friend of mine who is lucky enough to live here. Someone said I'd smell like fish the rest of the day. I only hope that part's not true.
I want to remember I've just 36 hours or so to go. I want to keep seeing this beautiful weirdness. I want to remember how many photos I took.
I want to remember and so I pick out small pockets of time and I fill them up with writing. I want to remember now so I have a harder time forgetting later.
