Schadenfreude Unlimited! A review of Lorrie Moore's Bark and Apotheke
Schadenfreude Unlimited!--my review of Lorrie Moore's Bark: Stories, is live today at the wonderfully eclectic Trop Magazine. Props to all the folks behind this terrific journal. Here's a teaser: Lorrie Moore will "expand whatever postage stamp-sized garden of humanity you will needlessly, excessively toil over with yard implements and fertilizer for a season, just to grow one ****ing cherry tomato."
As well, I've begun a blog experiment with some short, enigmatic pieces (short shorts, these are usually called, a term I don't like) that I've either not placed anywhere, or not bothered to try to place, having become convinced that I might as well put them into the web-verse, rather than let them sit and stagnate. I have files full of these, and I'm going to post one a day for the near future. These can be found here, at Apotheke.

Cannery Row opens with a small set piece that functions almost like a landscape painting; the mood of the place is carefully described, most of the major characters are seen strolling across the screen, and the general tone of the story is set. The introduction ends with a description of how Steinbeck has written this book: He has captured something not easily described in words by just "let[ting] the stories crawl in by themselves."
The novel proper begins with a description of Lee Chong's grocery store, a tiny shop where one can buy anything except female companionship, which can be found across the street at Dora's brothel. The grocery store is particularly important to the community as a place to buy cheap whiskey ("Old Tennis Shoes"). Lee Chong has done well by being clever and serving his customers' needs. He is fairly generous with credit, only withholding it when a customer's debts get truly out of hand. One customer who found himself in such a situation was Horace Abbeville. Horace had two wives and six children and quite a debt. One day, he came to Lee Chong's and offered to settle the debt by signing over a fish-meal storage shed that he owned to the grocer. Lee Chong agreed and drew up the paperwork. Horace, now free of financial obligations, returned home and shot himself. Feeling guilty, Lee Chong has done his best ever since to take care of Abbeville's family. The fish-meal shack presented a problem to the grocer, however. He was pondering what to do with it when Mack, the leader of a small group of unemployed roustabouts, came to see him. Mack proposed that Lee Chong let him and his friends live in the shack for a nominal rent. Knowing that Mack and the boys will undoubtedly vandalize the shack if he refuses, Lee Chong agrees, even though he knows that he will never see a penny of rent. The arrangement works out well, as Mack and the boys provide protection for the grocery and even stop stealing from the store out of gratitude. The old fish-meal shack has become known, sarcastically, as the Palace Flophouse and Grill. Mack and the boys spend most of their time stealing furnishings for their new home and painting them to disguise their origins.
Mack and the boys also contemplate doing something nice for Doc, who runs the Western Biological Laboratory across the street. As Doc walks across to Lee Chong's to buy some beer, the narrative digresses into a poetic contemplation of the characters we have met so far. Lee Chong is shown to be tough-headed but soft-hearted; he has dug up the bones of his grandfather and had them sent back to China to be buried in the old man's home soil. Mack and the boys are held up as ideals: While they are not ambitious, they also avoid many of the anxieties of modern life and are able to live each day in peace and a kind of sensuous richness. God must admire and protect people like Mack, the narrative claims.
Across a vacant lot from Lee Chong's is Dora's brothel, the Bear Flag Restaurant (named after the state flag). Dora, an enormous woman with orange hair and a taste for flamboyant clothes, runs an upstanding establishment. She makes sure all of her girls are well-behaved and well cared for, and she maintains her position in the town through generous charitable contributions and careful behavior. During the Depression, she was particularly active in helping others, feeding many of the families in the area and paying their bills at Lee Chong's. The narrative digresses again to tell the story of William, the former bouncer at the Bear Flag. William was never able to make friends and always thought that others saw him as a "dirty pimp." One day, in a fit of despair, he stabbed himself to death. The bouncer now is Alfred, a popular fellow.
The narrative interrupts itself once again to sketch another little picture. This one describes an elderly "Chinaman" who walks through Cannery Row every day at dusk and again at dawn on his way to and from harvesting marine animals below the piers. His sandals make a slapping noise as he walks; this sound alerts the locals to his passing. The Chinaman is inscrutable and a little scary; no one has ever spoken to him except one little boy, who once sang a song full of racial slurs at the old man. The old man stopped and fixed him with a stare and the boy nearly lost consciousness. Since then, no one has bothered the Chinaman.
The first chapters of this book are largely concerned with painting a picture of a specific time and place. Steinbeck is more interested in the community as a whole and the way that an individual character's behavior is judged by the community than he is in the specific actions of that character. In other words, this is not a book about plot; it's a novel where setting and atmosphere take precedence. This aligns Steinbeck with some of the "local color" or regional writers of the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries. Steinbeck is less like someone like Sarah Orne Jewett, who was interested in depicting local ways of life and the conflict between outlying regions and metropolitan areas, and more like someone like William Faulkner, who wrote novels dominated by a sense of place and who attempted to sketch a community of co-dependent people rather than a series of independent psyches. His alignment with regional writing can be seen most strongly, though, by comparing him to someone like Hemingway, whose novels show people far from home who really don't connect with their surroundings or by placing him next to Fitzgerald, whose novels, while precise in describing their surroundings, could take place anywhere. By refusing to write about "everyman" type figures the way Hemingway and Fitzgerald do, Steinbeck also signals that he will not be writing about the "American dream," at least not in any straightforward way. It is as if he is saying to his reader, "No, this couldn't happen to you, not unless you come to Cannery Row and leave your previous life behind." This allows Steinbeck, paradoxically, to be more utopian (albeit in a perverse way) in his thinking: Mack and the boys and Dora the benevolent madam are fictional enough to remain ideal, and we are not forced to confront their very real flaws.

WePay, a US-based processor that handles digital transactions for platforms like GoFundMe, FreshBooks, and Constant Contact, announced the launch of a white-label mobile point-of-sale (mPOS) solution on Monday.
The product will include a customizable card reader that accepts both magnetic stripe- and EMV-based transactions, and an Android and iOS-compatible software development kit (SDK). Merchants can sync their existing WePay account with the mPOS device in order to keep track of both online and offline transaction data, and will be charged 2.75% plus 30¢ for processing fees on top of the price of the reader.
The product will initially be available to two WePay software clients — FreshBooks and Infusionsoft — which can then offer it to their own merchants.
WePay's device could benefit all key stakeholders by creating new revenue streams.
- Software providers and merchants can expand offline. WePay's current clients specialize in e-commerce, however, the company's new mPOS product will give its software partners a simple way to expand offline while staying within the WePay ecosystem. And the device will also enable the merchants to start accepting card-present payments on-the-go. This can translate to a new revenue stream for both merchants and their software providers.
- The addition of offline payments ultimately benefits WePay. The integration of offline payments into WePay's platform is a value-added service that could increase its partners' loyalty to the company. And automatic integration saves merchants time and effort, which could help them to improve efficiency and ultimately grow their business, which then gets passed onto WePay in the form of processing revenue.
WePay could have an advantage in mPOS, which is becoming more software-centric. WePay's expertise in software could bode well for the company as it extends into the mPOS industry, where many of the top players have grown through added software services.
mPOS hardware providers like Square have been rapidly integrating additional features, like invoicing and instant deposit, in order to improve the merchant experience and keep merchants loyal. WePay's omnichannel expansion could likewise help the company better compete with other processors, mPOS providers, and software firms.

Lisa from HS Stralsund Germany, studying at USC!
Why I choose USC: To be honest, seeing that USC had kangaroos on its campus was one of the main drivers for choosing the Uni. Another reason was that the Uni is called 'University of the Sunshine Coast', who wouldn't want to live at a place called Sunshine Coast? Being able to do a Double Degree at a University, which is close to a number … Continue reading Lisa from HS Stralsund Germany, studying at USC!

Here is a quickie on how to use Adobe's F4M configurator tool to create set level manifest files.
The configurator is installed with AMS 5.0 and can be found in the following directory: {AMS_INSTALL}/tools/f4mconfig/configurator/
- Open the f4mconfig.html file in a browser.
- Enter the path to your server, application and event. For example for an event named "myliveevent" using the "livepkgr" application the Base URL would look like: http://192.168.1.113/hds-live/livepkgr/_definst_/myliveevent/
- If you are going to use DVR, enter a value for "DVR Window Duration". A value of -1 configures the DVR window for all of the available content. A value greater than zero configures the amount of time in seconds available before the live point. We'll set a 30 minute DVR window, so 1800 seconds.
- Enter the stream name and bit rate for each bit rate you are encoding. For this example lets say we have a single bit rate of 300 for a stream named "mylivestream"
- Click the "Save Manifest" button. A file will be created and you will prompted to save the file. Save the file and open it.
- The file should look similar to the following:
<manifest xmlns="http://ns.adobe.com/f4m/2.0"> <baseURL>http://192.168.1.113/hds-live/_definst_/myliveevent/</baseURL> <dvrInfo windowDuration="1800"/> <media href="mylivestream" bitrate="300"/> </manifest>
- This file can now be used to specify live DVR content. If you add an additional bitrate, you not have a set-level F4M file for multi-bitrate streaming.
Hope this helps and save a bit of time for you.

2014 Catch up part 5
When Nicholas McCarthy's film was originally released at the IFC Midnight film festival it was titled Home - a title that would not look amiss on the DYI channel - but it got the name change to something rather more exciting. At the Devil's Door is Nicholas McCarthy's sophomore effort (his second feature film following the impressive The Pact) and it shows signs that McCarthy is a perfectly capable director as his latest film is a technical accomplishment. The film certainly has its moments, there are some good chills, particularly in the film's superbly creepy opening and film's refreshingly ambiguous ending but the film's best ideas are taken from more accomplished and better horror films such as Rosemary Baby and The Omen.

Northern Districts Baseball Club, History
Northern District Baseball Club inc. was established in 1969 with the merger of Prospect Baseball Club (Est 1936) and Enfield Baseball Club (Est 1954), for the new format of the summer Baseball season.
Since the formation of the club the uniform has maintained the colours of Red and White in several combinations. The 1995/96 season saw the introduction of the uniform being predominately white with top marked with red piping around the collar and down button row with 1'' red bands on sleeve ends and Norths printed down the left hand front panel. The trousers have a red band down the sides and a red belt. This is finished off with a red hat with white lettering 'ND' on the front, and red socks
The red and white colour combination is the base colour for most northern Adelaide sporting clubs.
In 1999/20 with a second Under12 div2 team, another uniform was required to separate the two teams. Red tops with white neck a band and sleeve ends were adopted. One with Norths in white letters down front left side. The other with Reds in white letters across chest. This was the birth of the 'Reds'
This led to the seniors adopting the name 'Reds' and changing the top to red with white lettering and sleeves being changed to black
During Northern Districts Baseball Club's history, the club has had 87 teams in final four positions, 14 Premierships and 12 runners-up.
The club has produced 27 South Australian Baseball Medal winners.

FOR SCHOOLS - The Creative Childhood Conference
Schools & Culture Working Together
The Creative Childhood Conference: Schools and culture working together
Join A New Direction at the British Library for a day of creativity and collaboration.
Date: Thursday 06 October 2016
Time: 9.30am – 4.00pm
Venue: The British Library
London Teachers book here now >
Unlocking the potential of all young people to be creative is crucial to the future of London. Crucial for the happiness of our young people, for the cohesion of our society and to our shared prosperity.
We can have a city where all children, young people and families benefit from the wealth culture in London but this is not that case at the moment. For things to change, we need to find better ways of sharing what we know, collaborating effectively and being prepared to work harder to tackle persistent challenges.
This conference will be a chance for London schools and cultural organisations to come together and explore creative ways of connecting and spreading the benefits of what we do. It will be practical, fun, and – as it is National Poetry Day – full of poetry.
There will be speakers, discussion, and workshops. Over the break and lunchtime our Artsmark team will be on hand to offer their support to schools and organisations engaging with the Award.
Throughout the day you will hear from:
- Our compere, poet Paul Lyalls
- Chief Executive of A New Direction, Steve Moffitt
- AND teacher Advocates
- London's Young Poet Laureate (outgoing), Selina Nwulu
- Director of Foundation for Future London, Andrea Stark
- Author, illustrator and poet, Laura Dockrill

The Southern States Athletic Conference earlier this week announced two Brenau student-athletes have been selected as conference athletes of the week for April 18-24.
Deishane' Honeycutt, a senior biology major from Stone Mountain, Georgia, was named SSAC Women's Outdoor Track Athlete of the Week, and Aubrey Fearnow, a junior middle grades education major from Arnoldsville, Georgia, was named SSAC Women's Outdoor Field Athlete of the Week.
Both student-athletes turned in impressive performances at last week's SSAC Women's Track & Field Championships in Mobile, Alabama, where the Golden Tigers claimed their fourth consecutive conference crown.
Honeycutt placed first in the 400 meters and 400 meter hurdles competitions and was an instrumental part of Brenau's victory in the 4 X 400 and 4 X 800 team relays, while Fearnow finished first in the hammer throw and shot put, came in second in the javelin toss and placed third in the discus.
Brenau finished the conference championship 138 points ahead of second-place Loyola (La.) University. Combined, the individual performances of Honeycutt and Fearnow produced 63.5 of the Golden Tigers' cumulative 249 points.

Business booming for once-troubled North Face
It was a strange start. But then again, it was a strange time.
In 1966, nestled among the bookstores, espresso bars and strip joints in San Francisco's North Beach, Doug and Susie Tompkins decided to open a high-end ski and camping supply store. They named it the North Face because the northern wall of a mountain in the Northern Hemisphere tends to pose the coldest, iciest and most formidable ascent. Yosemite rock climbers donated hardware to adorn the shop, and the Grateful Dead rocked the opening party.
It's been 46 years, and the company, now based in San Leandro, is a leader in outdoor-lifestyle brands. But on its way to the pinnacle, there were plenty of dips, turns, rocky slopes - and rock 'n' roll.
MBA BY THE BAY: See how an MBA could change your life with SFGATE's interactive directory of Bay Area programs.
"There was more in the earlier days. But it's classic evolution. ... Even Eric Clapton is clean and sober now," said Jim Zellers, a legendary snowboarder who joined the North Face team in 1988.
That was a year before former EMI record company executive Jim Fifield took it over and played Clapton demo tapes to the staff during ski trips. By the time Fifield left in 1999, the company was in management turmoil and on the verge of filing for bankruptcy.
In 2000, VF Corp., the largest apparel company in the world, scooped it up for a paltry $25.4 million. Now, North Face is expected to double its revenue by 2015 to $3 billion a year.
Even a youth line
The firm produces equipment and apparel for outdoor activities such as mountaineering, rock climbing and hiking; action sports, including skiing, snowboarding and mountain biking; and performance activities like running, yoga and training. It also has a youth line.
Bursting at the seams and desperate for windows - there are few to none in the San Leandro facility - the company is planning to move this summer to a 160,000-square-foot campus in Alameda that it will share with sister companies JanSport and Lucy Activewear.
North Face employs 450 people in the Bay Area and contracts with 70 athletes, who consult on everything from design to product testing.
But its beginnings were more humble.
"It started as an equipment store, specializing in tents, backpacks and sleeping bags," said Todd Spaletto, who was named company president last year. "Climbers had just started heading to Yosemite, and there was a market for quality gear."
But there were few places to buy it. Most climbers got their camping gear at Army surplus stores, said Ann Krcik, a North Face spokeswoman.
Doug Tompkins, an avid environmentalist, rock climber and ski racer who had founded the California Mountaineering Guide Service, along with his now ex-wife, Susie Tompkins Buell, saw an opportunity.
Store became a hub
Soon their Columbus Avenue store became a hub for outdoorsy types. Around that time, Tompkins and a partner began playing around with designs for a tent that used bendable rods instead of a pole in the middle. Their experiment became the prototype for the North Face tent.
A year later the Tompkins started Esprit, a popular clothing line, and sold their share of North Face. Kenneth "Hap" Klopp eventually took over and moved the company across the bay to Berkeley and later opened a factory in a warehouse on Fifth Street. Next door, Creedence Clearwater Revival held band practice.
Klopp ran the company for the next 20 years - a time of great growth. Not long after, Fifield took over. By the late 1990s, the North Face was experiencing serious problems. It had garnered a reputation for shipping orders late - ski gear would arrive in stores after the season was over and tents would ship too late for camping - or flubbing the quantities.
In 1999, shareholder lawsuits mounted against the company, which had moved its headquarters to Colorado when Fifield took over. The suits alleged that North Face executives reported false financial results and exaggerated sales increases, which led to inflated stock prices. The Nasdaq halted trading until the matter was cleared up. By 2000, North Face had reported sales at $238 million, but the company had posted a net loss of $100 million.
It was either pay their bills or file Chapter 11. So the company moved back to the Bay Area while a transition team ran it until VF came in and infused the dying company with cash.
Nowadays, North Face's merchandise is manufactured overseas. But 80 percent of it is designed in the Bay Area, Spaletto said.
Last week, design teams huddled in cubicles in North Face's headquarters, putting the finishing touches on their 2013 lines. In a small conference room next to Spaletto's office sat a sample for a new backpack that had everyone in the building excited. It's a wacky-looking thing - a pack flanked on each side by air bags. The Patrol 24 ABS pack, which goes on the market next fall and retails for $1,179, is designed to give a skier a shot at survival during an avalanche. The wearer just pulls a pin and a canister of nitrogen inflates the air bags.
Steve Rendle, leader of VF Outdoor and Action Sports, walked up and down the halls of North Face with the ABS pack on his back. "It's a little heavy," he said, not sounding happy. After a few more laps, he headed back to design. Chances are by the time the pack goes on the market it will be lighter, Spaletto said.
It's these types of glitches that have the North Face staff taking 24 adventure trips a year. A trek through the Grand Canyon, an expedition to Mount Everest, skiing Denali in Alaska and ice climbing in Bozeman, Mont., might seem like a vacation.
Not a vacation
For North Face's athletes, designers and scientists, it's probably a little more work than play. Equipment gets tested, the finishing touches on a design are finalized and new science, especially dealing with temperature control, gets discovered.
"Often notebooks get taken out on these trips," Zellers said. "Inevitably what happens is one of the athletes will point to a place on the backpack and say, 'A pocket would be great here.' Then one of the designers will flip through his or her notebook and say, 'Really? Last year you said a pocket there would be a terrible idea.' "
Zellers said the athletes have a big say in what gets made. He points to big mountain skier Ian McIntosh's Haines Tuxedo, a Gore-Tex one-piece suit that retails for around $1,000, but is about to be discontinued.
"It gets made whether it sells or not," he said. "Because we still learn from it."
The Grateful Dead is no longer playing at North Face gigs anymore, but what a long strange trip it's been.

The film is based on the true story of Stephen Glass, who wrote regularly for the New Republic Magazine, while freelancing for Harpers, George, and other publications. It was the first movie I'd seen that captured the real essence of the job I enjoy. It also showcased the pressures that writers can easily find themselves under. As a matter of fact, there was one scene where a female writer at the magazine was jealous of Stephen's popularity. Glass appeared to be the real deal; editors from other publications kept contacting him, he wrote front page articles, and was bringing in a lot of money. He had the career that every hotshot journalist dreams of. But of course, no one knew his secret yet.
Glass was gradually exposed after a reporter from Forbes (Adam Penenburg) tried to write a follow-up article on a story Glass had previously written, only to discover that the entire story was made up. Things began to unravel from there. But one thing I love about the film is that Glass' downfall was a gradual process; it's almost like watching the sand dwindle in an hourglass. Rather than confessing and resigning, Glass fought back. He created fake websites, business cards, voicemails, emails, and other things to cover his tracks and fool his editors. With every piece of 'evidence' Glass created, he only dug his hole deeper. The 25 year-old writer was finally fired when his editor, Chuck Lane, discovered that Glass' brother was posing as one of his sources.
Why did Stephen Glass do this? No one knows for sure. But there are pressures in journalism, and this movie revealed some of them. Glass was certainly under stress--writing for so many publications and even attending law school at night. Was he a good writer deep down? I have my doubts. I've read that his stories generally were not good narratives until his editors tinkered with them. I heard a lot of people say that Stephen would make an excellent novelist or screenwriter. After all, his stories sounded like hollywood cinemas. But again, this is largely because of his editors and colleagues who would help him. I have Stephen's novel, The Fabulist, and though it's not a horrible read, it can't compare with Glass's creative fiction during his journalism career. But, his book is intriguing all the same because he walks you through how he fooled the fact-checkers and editors.
Another thing that struck me about the movie was the portrayal of Stephen's editors. His first editor, the late Michael Kelly, was laid back, fun and supportive. The entire staff loved him. His successor, Chuck Lane, didn't have Kelly's sense of humor. In fact, one of the writers in the movie described him as "humorless." Editors are different everywhere you work. I've had some that I really enjoyed working for, and others I'd prefer not to work with again. It's the luck of the draw. It's like picking out a pet kitten. You have no idea what kind of personality it will have until you interact with it.
Ultimately, I think Glass only got away with his crimes because The New Republic didn't allow photos in their magazine. Also, with TNR being an opinionated magazine, Glass could write the things he knew his readers wanted to hear. Writing straight-forward AP-style articles like the ones in U.S. newspapers would have made cheating more difficult for Glass. Shattered Glass is my favorite journalism movie without doubt.
I screened All The President's Men sometime late last year. The movie is about the reporters who uncovered the Watergate Scandal. Like Shattered Glass, the film gives an in-depth look into the world of journalism. You see reporters crouched behind desks, talking to sources on the phone or writing articles. You also see that journalists will sometimes run into sources that don't want to be revealed, like the anonymous informant known as "Deepthroat." Another common link between ATPM and SG is showing how different editors can be.
Though ATPM was a good movie, I think it ran on a little too long. Shattered Glass was better in my opinion. The movie really picks up after Stephen writes his final TNR story, Hack Heaven. I'm hoping another great journalism movie comes out soon. I'd like to see films based on Jayson Blair or Janet Cooke. I think SG and ATPM should be screened in every journalism class.
For those interested, here are two interviews with Stephen Glass.

Ratings for Nicola L. Mcfadzean
for 6 years i went to different specialists and neurologists trying to find out what was wrong with me. i had many erratic symptoms that would come and go. a top neurotlogist at scripps told me i was one visit away from being diagnosed with multiple sclerosis and hinted that i was just in denial. the diagnosis did not seem right to me so i went online and found dr. nicola. she tested me for lyme and i was cdc positive. i was able to get 90% better under her care and i continue to improve. she saved my life! for 6 years all the top specialists wouldn't LISTEN to me. i had the classic bullseye rash, i had all the symptoms that go along with lyme disease, if they would have just ordered the test i would have been saved years and years of physical affliction. she not only treats lyme she is great all around!
Dr. McFadzean is an awesome Naturopath skilled in treating Lyme Disease and co-infections. She is ILADS affiliated. After being told for months that I had "anxiety" by a previous doc who refused to treat me further and told me to see a psychiatrist, I felt determined to figure out what was wrong with me. After some symptom research, I suspected I had Lyme Disease. I found Dr. Nicola and felt saved! During my first appointment she spent an hour with me getting a detailed history and sent me for a Lyme Western Blot test - low and behold I tested POSITIVE! She was the first doc to listen to me, believe my symptoms and test me. She is well versed in natural treatments of Lyme Disease as well as antibiotics. She doesn't accept insurance however her expertise alone is worth the price. I highly recommend!

Alu Design Operator Chair Lands Star Role In 'Transformers: Age of Extinction'
Norway's Alu Design is set to make its Hollywood debut in the latest Transformers blockbuster, with the news that its MH OCH 300 operator chair has secured a role in Paramount Pictures' Transformers: Age of Extinction. The seat, created for Aker Solutions in 2012, will now be seen "at the heart" of the film's set design, starring alongside actors such as Mark Wahlberg, Kesley Grammer and Stanley Tucci.
It's a bewildering development for Kristiansand-based Alu Design, a market leader in the design and manufacture of advanced pilot chairs and deck rails. The firm created the chair to offer new ergonomic and user-friendly standards for operators working in the restricted space of Drillers Cabins on offshore rigs… not for science fiction action films.

Here is a few problems that are commonly found in most framing jobs.
· The frame lay out is wrong· The screws are not put in right.· The wall is not level· The studs are cut to short· The sheetrock will not line up with the frame work
The frame lay out is wrong
The way to fix it is by laying out the framework again. Mark the center of every 16 inches on the track that is holding the studs. Then install the studs and screw them or nailing it. I make sure every stud that is at the four-foot mark is level this will insures me that when a board has to be place at least the most important stud is accurate.
If you are unfamiliar with screwing the studs or nail them I recommend practicing on similar material. Practice makes perfect once you get technique down then screw or nail away at the project.
If the wall is not level or crooked the best way to straighten it is with a laser level. Or a plumb bob. I have plenty more framing tips inside this website
It is always good to measure twice and cut once it is the golden in carpentry. Also cut the first stud; check it sees if it is short or big then cut the rest of the studs

Ascent of Cerro de Punta on 2010-12-06

----Only Party on Mountain
Monday, December 6, 2010
Ascent Type:
Successful Summit Attained
Motorized Transport to Trailhead:
Cerro de Punta
Puerto Rico
4390 ft / 1338 m
Ascent Trip Report
Began by waking up at 4:15 AM and driving to range from my hotel in Carolina (near San Juan). After shower and packing and setting the GPS, pulled out around 4:45. Hard Core. Lesson numero uno in driving in PR. Tolls everywhere. Have you money (quarters and dollars) at ready. I got stuck in a lane that the gate would not lift up and then backed up..into next lane where the guy frowned hollered at me in rapid Spanish so i backed out again and went another toll lane as cars came at me in the dark! Not fun. Stay far right for change bottom line
Lesson numero dos - nearly all roads wind around mountains and the drive time is longer than you think. Stay on main tollways and be prepared for hot brakes.
I read accounts of someone who struggled for hours to find the trail up the backside of Cerro de Punto and hiked it up from some Hacienda. I elected against getting lost in a rain forest on my first venture plus there were too many other mountains with great trails to do in the El Yunque National Forest and i had only one personal day there - the rest was on business.
So i went and parked at the parking lot of the maintenance road to the tower. I heard of people driving up it. Hmmm. It is very very steep and in sections poor shape where you could bottom out. Not to mention the storm trench grate with one section of missing grate to lose a tire in...but go for it if want - i want the excercise and hike up everything. The road is as steep as any road i have every climbed. It was awkward on my thighs and i felt better reversing from time to time and going up backwards! It is a short but steep ascent. Appears to be over 600 feet.
Started at 7:20 AM and the valley temperature of 69 to 70F had dropped to 58F up here high in the mountains. I never stopped and walked quickly - had my heart racing and made the top at 7:37 AM.
I am guessing with all the hairpin curves and the pace i had it was near a mile but short. I left at 7:45 and was down at 7:57 (12 minutes down) but i can fly going down hill. This road if wet would be very slippery and difficult - luckily it was dry. With top time and photos i was up and back to the car in 37 minutes and off to the next peak to check out.

A year on from the European Championship humiliation and Giovanni Trapattoni insists his Irish team is finally in a good place ahead of their last ditch attack on World Cup qualification.
Failure to score against Wales on Wednesday was a worrying sign ahead of the Sweden game in three weeks, not least with Zlatan Ibrahimovic smashing another hat-trick in their rout of Norway.
But Trapattoni insists he is not losing any sleep over blunt
firepower and feels Ireland are well placed to deal with the threat being posed in Dublin on September 6 in the first game of a make-or-break double-header.
"We must believe," he said last night. "The result against Wales means we go into the qualifiers with optimism and confidence as we confirmed our quality with our defenders."
Indeed, the Italian is making a strong case for the defence – his new-look rearguard that on Wednesday kept its fifth clean sheet from eight games in this calendar year.
Poland, Sweden, Georgia, Faroe Islands also found no way past the Irish defence and Trapattoni is now backing them to keep PSG ace Ibrahimovic under wraps in Dublin – just like they did in Stockholm in March when he was no more than a bystander.
Ireland have lost three times in 14 games since they played away in Serbia this time last year – two of those to superpowers Spain and Germany.
It is a far cry from the 14-game unbeaten run they brought to the Euros, albeit a record that was so brutally torn apart by Croatia, Spain and Italy.
But having revamped his team since that horror show in Poland, there are signs that Ireland
are turning a corner, and the defensive display in Wales was rock solid – a jittery Keiren Westwood aside.
Trapattoni can now boast an all-Premier League back four in Seamus Coleman, John O'Shea, Ciaran Clark and Marc Wilson, and, injuries aside, they will start against Sweden.
"If a team has good balance and they help each other out as a group, you can have good
possibilities," said Trapattoni.
"O'Shea has experience at international level but obviously needs support from other players when the opponent is attacking with the ball.
"Clark has increased his personality. He is a fast player and heads the ball strongly. I hope Sean St Ledger can come back from his injury and we will see what happens with Richard Dunne if he plays at his club or not, and there is also Darren O'Dea.
"The balance we have now is important. If we concede space when the opponent attacks on the counter, we are in difficulty. But we are good when the team is compact and balanced."
Trapattoni regular hails the new full-back pairing of Coleman (inset) and Wilson as shining lights of this freshened up team but he must regret not bringing them to Euro 2012.
Stephen Ward, for instance, was Ireland's left-back in Poland but was exposed all too often and has since been kicked to touch by Trapattoni, having failed to feature in recent squads.
"Coleman and Wilson give us good balance," said the Italian. "At first we had Steve Finnan and he was also like this. Maybe he was technically better than Coleman. When we lost Finnan we had a problem as the full-back did not help the midfield.
"I have always said that midfield is not only four players – it is eight players. I want Coleman to go up and shoot and cross but he must also defend. When the opponent has the ball, he must help out."
Trapattoni cited the 6-1 defeat to Germany last October as an example of where Ireland were the architects of their own downfall because they were not compact.
And he is warning that failure to play as a collective against Sweden will bring a world of pain that Ireland will struggle to recover from.
"In the Germany game we made one or two great mistakes," he said. "When the opponent had the ball, we were not thinking. You must follow the opponent until you win the ball back.
"When our players lost the ball they just looked on and Germany had time to cross the ball and score. We must keep going and work hard against Sweden until we win the ball back. "
Floater Wes Hoolahan was the link between midfield and attack in Wales and gave a helping hand to James McCarthy and Glenn Whelan in the middle by harassing opponents into coughing up possession.
But he is set to lose his place in the team for Sweden to Robbie Keane and Trapattoni said yesterday: "Wes did a good job running but he was a little bit tired.
"At his club, he only plays in the final 20 or 30 metres of the pitch. He does not have the habit of counter attacking and also working 80 yards back to win possession as I asked him to help midfield."
Robbie Brady has been rapped on the knuckles and told he has a lot to learn about international football.
The Hull City winger won his sixth cap when he started on the left side of midfield against Wales on Wednesday.
But he was hauled ashore at half-time and replaced by new Wigan recruit James McClean.
And last night Giovanni Trapattoni revealed it was not because of any club request from the Tigers.
"He did not play badly but he can do better," said the Irish boss of the 21-year-old former Manchester United man (right).
"He is a creative player but he must also work on his defence and he did not manage to combine those two tasks.
"I have told him that he is allowed to attack but he must also come back and help."
Keiran Westwod is winning the race to start between the posts against Sweden – despite his ropey performance in Cardiff.
The Sunderland man pulled off one smart save to keep out a Craig Bellamy free-kick but made a number of errors.
He completely missed a punched clearance from a corner, with Ashley Williams set to score only for a vital John O'Shea interception.
And he botched a kick-out from an O'Shea back pass to his weaker right foot whilst under pressure from opposing players.
But Giovanni Trapattoni has tipped the rusty Black Cat to find his best form in time to face Sweden, with David Forde currently injured.
"I think we will continue with Westwood but
goalkeeper is not a position I worry about because we
have enough good players.
"Westwood probably felt like he was being examined against Wales but we have confidence about him."
Demoted as Irish No.1 when he played second fiddle to new Liverpool keeper Simon Mignolet last season, Westwood is desperate to reclaim the gloves.
Forde was appointed as successor earlier this year and made a number of top notch displays – not least against England and Sweden.
But a knee injury means he is touch and go for Sweden on September 6 and Trapattoni admits that is a concern.
Forde is targeting Millwall's Championship clash away to Brighton on August 31 as his return.
But that is just one week before the World Cup clash at Aviva Stadium and Trapattoni admits it may not be enough.
"Forde had surgery and against Sweden it is
difficult to come in and play immediately – he must play a game for his club," he said.
"We have time to see this but I would like him to
play one game more than that."

These top 10 producer lists are always a challenge. The challenge is not finding 10 producers, but rather whittling down a list to 10 and settling on the criteria one uses.
In truth, I failed miserably at this project. Eventually I just had to surrender and develop two lists, one for the best values and another for my favorite wines. There is actually some overlap between the two lists, a great producer of Chateauneuf-du-Pape for example can produce a wonderful Cotes du Rhone as well.
So in my selection process, simply making great wine was a fundamental requirement, but producing wines with a certain typicity and consistency were traits that I also weighed heavily. Ultimately when it came right down to it, some value reigned supreme when compiling both of these lists. Not value as in who provides the best inexpensive wine, but rather value ss in who provided the best bang for one's buck.
With that in mind, I am comfortable finding values across a broad price spectrum. These wineries are some of the most renowned producers of Grenache and Grenache-based wines.

2010 Ontario Savings Bonds Rates Announced
McGuinty Government Offering Investment Options That Help Build A Stronger Economy
Ontario announced competitive interest rates for the 2010 issue of Ontario Savings Bonds (OSBs), which go on sale today until June 21, 2010.
This year, the province is offering Ontarians two new investment terms of seven-year and 10-year Fixed-Rate Bonds, as well as the traditional three-year term. The Variable-Rate Bond will now be available in a three-year term instead of a seven-year term.
The interest rates on the 2010 Ontario Savings Bonds series are as follows:
- The five-year Step-Up Bond interest rate is 1.00 per cent this year, 2.00 per cent in the second year, 3.00 in the third year, 3.75 per cent in the fourth year and 4.25 per cent in the final year
- The Fixed-Rate Bonds:
o The interest rate for three-year Fixed-Rate Bond is 2.50 per cent
o The interest rate for seven-year Fixed-Rate Bond is 3.75 per cent
o The interest rate for 10-year Fixed-Rate Bond is 4.25 per cent
- The three-year Variable-Rate Bond rate is 1.25 per cent for the first year.
The interest rate on Variable-Rate Bonds for the 2004 to 2009 series was also reset today at 1.25 per cent. This rate is effective from June 21, 2010 to December 20, 2010 for the 2004 to 2008 series, and from June 21, 2010 to June 20, 2011 for the 2009 series
In an effort to increase awareness of OSBs within ethnic communities, for the first time the ministry has developed an SMS (Short Message Service) text pilot program, targeting Chinese communities across Toronto where the concentration of Chinese-speaking Ontarians is more than 50 per cent of the area's total population. By texting a keyword, users will get an instant reply on interest rates.
Quick Facts
- OSBs are backed 100 per cent by the Province of Ontario and are sold in amounts of $100 up to $500,000 for small, medium and large investors.
- This year, the 2003 Variable-Rate, 2005 Step-Up and the 2007 Fixed-Rate Bonds are maturing, and purchasers can extend their benefits by reinvesting in 2010 OSBs.
- Only Ontario residents may purchase OSBs. They can be purchased from banks, trust companies, credit unions, caisses populaires and through investment dealers.
Additional Resources
"Ontario Savings Bonds are guaranteed investments that contribute to our province's economic strength. When investing in these bonds, Ontarians are supporting important services like education, healthcare, infrastructure and skills training and helping to build stronger communities."

We present a radically new class of optical setup working with white-light illumination, namely, a chromatically compensated processor operating in the Fresnel domain. The optical configuration is a hybrid (diffractive–refractive) three-lens system that exhibits an intermediate achromatic Fresnel plane and an output image plane without chromatic distortion. As a first application of this optical arrangement we develop a parallel space-variant color pattern-recognition experiment with white light.

Warning: When in doubt, always contact a licensed electrical contractor when it comes to electricity. It can be very dangerous, even fatal, to make the wrong move doing an electrical service, Fixing Electrical machinery, fixtures or appliances. Do not take that risk!
| Qu0026amp;A |
Q. What is the difference between a circuit breaker and a fuse?
A. A circuit breaker and a fuse both perform the same function, interrupting the flow of electricity when a fault is sensed in an electric circuit. Fuses are cheaper to install, but not as efficient in the long run. Circuit breakers can be reset without having to replace anything, but fuses must be replaced when they trip. Today circuit breakers are economical and are used in most modern applications due to their ease of use.
Q. How do I reset a circuit breaker?
A. First you need to determine why the circuit breaker tripped. The breaker is there for a reason – to protect you and your belongings. Once you have corrected the situation by unplugging whatever caused the problem, you can proceed to the circuit breaker box. Open the door to the circuit breaker box to see the row(s) of breakers. Never remove the cover from the circuit breaker box since this will expose dangerous levels of electricity. You can normally tell which circuit breaker has tripped just by looking at it. Circuit breakers look and act similar to a regular wall switch that you use to turn on the lights, but most of the time they are oriented horizontally instead of vertically. The tripped circuit breaker will appear to be in the middle position, neither on or off. Push it all the way to the off position, then switch it back to the on position where it should latch. If it doesn't latch try repeating the sequence. As always when you are dealing with electricity use extreme caution and if it doesn't look right then don't do it. If the breaker will not latch or it trips again, do not continue trying to reset it. Call a qualified, licensed electrician to have it checked out.
Q. What does a GFCI device do?
A. A GFCI device is a Ground Fault Circuit Interrupter. It is a device designed to protect you from electrical shock. Many times you will find them in areas with wet surfaces such as a bathroom, kitchen or garage, or used in outdoor electrical outlets. If the device senses a ground fault it will trip to prevent the possibility of electric shock or electrocution.
Q. What should I do if the GFCI device trips?
A. There are two buttons on GFCI devices. You can test the device by pressing the black button. That should cause the circuit to trip, indicated by the red button popping out. When this happens, the outlet will be disabled and all other outlets and electrical connections on that circuit will be disabled. You reset the device by pressing the red button until it latches in place. If the device tripped by itself, check for causes that might have made it trip before trying to reset it. If it continues to trip for no apparent reason, contact a licensed electrician to have it checked out.
Q. Is it OK to use a dimmer with fluorescent lights?
A. Yes, but you must use a dimmer and light fixture specially made for fluorescent lights.
Q. Can I plug in a refrigerator in my garage?
A. In newer homes the electrical outlets in garages are protected by a GFCI device in compliance with the National Electrical Code. GFCI devices will not work with refrigerators or freezers. You can have a dedicated line installed, just make sure it is done in accordance with all applicable codes. Older homes generally do not have GFCI devices so that will not be a problem as long as the electrical circuit can handle the extra load.
Q. Is it normal for the lights to dim momentarily when my air conditioner turns on?
A. An air conditioner presents a very large load to your electrical circuit and can cause a momentary dip in the voltage level. This momentary dip is what causes the lights to dim, but it has no ill effect on your electrical circuits or electrical devices.
Q. Does lightning surge protection equipment really work?
A. Lightning is a very powerful force of nature and nothing can totally prevent it from causing damage under the right conditions. However, you stand a much better chance of protecting your valuable electrical/electronic equipment by using surge suppression for most circumstances.
Q. What does it mean when my smoke detector or carbon monoxide detector chirps?
A. A continuous chirping generally indicates a low battery. If you change the battery and it continues to chirp, then the detector is most likely defective and should be replaced.
Q. Every now and then I sense a little tingling or minor shock when opening my refrigerator. Is this normal?
A. This is absolutely not normal. You should never get even a minor shock when touching an electrical device. If you do, unplug the device immediately and consult a professional.
Q. How can I be sure the electrical system in my home or business is safe?
A. Have the system inspected by a licensed electrician.
Q. What should I be looking for when I call an electrical contractor or an electrician?
A. Make sure the contractor or the electrician is licensed to work in your community. You can contact your local government office to determine the proper licensing requirements. Don't hesitate to ask the contractor or electrician to see their license, reputable companies will have no problem with that.
Q. Can I do my own electrical work?
A. You need to check with your local community to determine their regulations when it comes to doing your own work. Most local governments will require you to have a permit to do any electrical work. Although it is not recommended, if your local government allows it and if you are qualified and know the proper safety precautions, you can perform your own electrical work. Anyone performing the work must do it in compliance with the National Electric Code. When you sell the building most municipalities will require an inspection letter from a licensed electrical contractor. If you do the work without meeting the local requirements, you could be taking on the electrical no permit liability. Before you attempt any electrical work, remember that about 1,000 people die every year from electrocution.
Q. How often should I inspect or test my industrial/commercial electrical equipment?
A. All electrical equipment used in industrial, commercial or institutional settings should be checked regularly by a qualified professional. When used in a mild environment your electrical equipment should be inspected at least annually. Under severe conditions, the equipment should be checked more frequently, as little as every 30 days. It is a good idea to keep written records of the inspections to keep track of any trends that could be showing signs of an impending failure.
Q. I want to do some excavating on my property. How can I tell if there are underground wires?
A. Some communities will have a central agency that can identify underground utilities for you before you start digging. In Chicago you can call Julie at 1-800-892-0123 and they will contact all of the appropriate utility companies. In other areas you should contact your local utility and they can mark the location of underground lines for you.
Q. What voltage level is considered dangerous?
A. Although there is no absolute rule, any level that exceeds 30 volts is generally considered dangerous.
