So after posting my training plan, someone commented about how I wasn't running enough nor reaching my full potential. At first when I got this comment I was a little baffled and upset. I thought I explained pretty thoroughly about why I was using the plan I was using and my reasoning behind it. Of course I would love to be able to run more, but working 60 hours a week, having friends and family and also having to keep myself sane, doesn't allow for an abundance of running time, and I'm more than okay with that. That's why I came up with the plan I made.
As for not reaching my full potential. That's probably true. It's funny, because sometimes when I'm out running, well most of the time when I'm out running, I get lost in really deep thought. My mind just wanders away and it's like I pick it back up when I'm done running. I have to remind myself sometimes that I'm not the runner I once was. I did the whole running is my life thing for four years. I worked HARD. I trained about 20 hours a week. I think that's when I was at my 'full potential' and guess what. I'm a LONG way from that now. I enjoy leisurely running. I enjoy running for fun. I don't enjoy hitting times and over analyzing everything I am training for and running so hard I throw up. Those days are in my past. They were fun. Running fast is fun. It took me a lot to get to a place where I'm okay with my times and not going out and running as hard and as fast as I can every single run. I just can't do that anymore. I may not be at my full potential, but for me, my definition of success is being healthy and enjoying life. If I'm doing that, then I'm good.
So many people ask me about Boston. I want to go sure. I want to run Boston. But I've never had this incredible drive like so many have, and I think you must have, to qualify. I almost feel like I worked that hard before in High School and now I'm happy to be where I'm at. Once I broke four hours, it was my Boston moment. It was all I ever wanted. I may break four hours again, I may not, but I'm happy with where I am at running wise. I have good runs and bad runs, but they all make me a stronger person in the end and that's all that matters.
I was thinking yesterday while on my 6 miler, it's been almost TEN YEARS since I got my 5k PR. I was in HIGH SCHOOL. You know what, I worked so hard for that and I'm okay that I will never be that fast again. My most recent 5k PR was over 2 minutes slower. That's more than okay! I'm not okay with the fact that it was almost 10 years ago! Snikes I'm getting old!
I don't know, that comment just made me think about a lot of things. I do this for me. I run for me. I don't care what your time is, I don't hate my faster friends for being faster than me. My slower friends don't hate me because I'm faster. As long as they are working hard, doing something that they want to, who cares! If they are having fun and enjoying themselves, who cares! If you are getting off the couch and doing yoga, great for you! If you are walking 2 miles a day in your tone up shoes, keep up the good work! If you are running an 8 hour marathon, good for you for finishing. It's all about movement, fitness and doing things that make you happy.
I purposefully scheduled my plan around Bachelor night with my roommate on Mondays. Because it's something fun and I just have cardio that day and I can enjoy watching the show. Seriously. That's what my life has become and I love it! I love working out, but there is a fine line in my life where working out becomes a burden and I don't like it anymore. I don't want it to get to that point. I want to enjoy it, so therefore, do what YOU like. Don't worry about what other people might say if it takes you forever to cross the finish line, at least you did it.
And that my friends is deep thoughts while running.

| Rating:
Insufficient meat content, meat and fat of unidentifiable origin, mixed quality grain, controversial filler
The first ingredient is a meat meal product but is not one named by species. Despite being indicated by proportion, this is a concern as it makes it impossible to identify the source, quality or consistency of the ingredient. Ingredients of unidentifiable source are usually very low quality, cheap ingredients and are not found in higher quality products. There is a second meat ingredient 6th on the ingredient list, but this begins to be too far down to make a substantial contribution to the overall meat content of the food. We note this is a fish meal ingredient, but are unable to locate any guarantee by the manufacturer that this ingredient is free of ethoxyquin. Ethoxyquin is a chemical preservative commonly added to fish ingredients destined for pet foods and which is banned from use in human foods because it is believed to be carcinogenic. We recommend careful checking of the packaging for any such guarantee (specific to this ingredient).
The main grains in the food are corn and rice. Rice is a decent quality grain, but corn is of limited value in dog food. It is a difficult to digest grain and commonly associated with food allergies. Poultry fat is an ingredient of unidentified origin for which it is impossible to determine source or quality. Unidentified ingredients are usually very low quality. AAFCO define this as obtained from the tissues of poultry in the commercial processes of rendering or extracting. It consists predominantly of glyceride esters of fatty acids and contains no additions of free fatty acids. If an antioxidant is used, the common name or names must be indicated, followed by the words "used as a preservative". The product packaging indicates the use of naturally occuring preservatives. We note that this is the fourth ingredient and that research at Purdue University has identified fat in the top four ingredients of dry food as a factor increasing the risk of bloat in large breed dogs. Smaller breeds are untested.
De-oiled grape seeds are filler (and we note that grapes are toxic to dogs). Beet fibre is beet pulp, a controversial filler. It is a by-product, being dried residue from sugar beets which has been cleaned and extracted in the process of manufacturing sugar. It is a controversial ingredient in dog food, claimed by some manufacturers to be a good source of fibre, and derided by others as an ingredient added to slow down the transition of rancid animal fats and causing stress to kidney and liver in the process. We note that beet pulp is an ingredient that commonly causes problems for dogs, including allergies and ear infections, and prefer not to see it used in dog food. There are less controversial products around if additional fibre is required.
Overall, this product is somewhat light in meat content, and uses meat and fat ingredients of unidentifiable origin. Although the meat content is probably higher than some others in this range and in this category, the use of low quality ingredients is too prolific for this product to be rated above 2*.

Quote: I didn't really like that point sparring tournament because some people lose the flavor of anything they have been trained and they stand there with their leg up and chambered ready to kick the second you get close enough.
Quote:I cant stand point-sparring because it doesnt prove anything, when it comes to martial arts. Its more of a balance competition, who can keep their leg up the longest. What martial art focuses on this? NONE... so whats the point, to get a medal?
Quote: I am just tired of hearing people say "I fight full contact" then walk onto the mat dressed like the stay puff marshmellow man.
Quote:I have nothing against point sparring- but I do have something against point-stop sparring. I simply fail to understand how it is useful. Afterall, not only is the whole one-hit ko philosophy flawed IMO, but trying to judge what is the first strong techinque to score, can be a nightmare for the judge/referee.

Today, I paid the cost for #noemail. The cost was $7.00.
I was cleaning my office and picking up books that I'd checked out of the UNC Library. Among those books was one that was just out and so had some sort of truncated checkout time. Most books are available to faculty for several months. This book was only allowed to be taken out for a few weeks. Oops!
I trucked my books over to the Library. First as a negotiator trained at the Grand Bazaar, I tried to get credit for the books I was returning early to offset the few days that my one special book was overdue. No dice.
Then I was told that my fine was extra. Not because of my negotiation attempts, but because the book had been recalled even before the due date.
The Library robot had sent me email. Err, didn't the Library robot or her minder get my message that I don't do email? If they had, then there are many ways to contact me.
— Oh, we've set up the messages so that we don't receive replies. But we do include a link in the message so that you can just click on that link and then we add your message to our database.
Doesn't adding several links to an automated message pretty much assure that the message gets marked as spam?
— We never thought of that. $7 is the charge.
But is there any way at all that you contact people who choose not to use email? I mean, everyone fills out a lot of contact information and the UNC One Card is tied to the Campus directory. It's not hard to find ways to contact people other than email. Hey, the robot could call or text just as easily.
— We only do email.
I paid $7. 1/20th the cost of a new Kindle.

In California politics this year, it's the second $100 million that counts.
There are two ways to read the results of a new Field Poll out today that shows Democratic gubernatorial nominee Jerry Brown in a virtual tie (44-43) with Republican Meg Whitman. The way you choose depends on whether you think the $100 million Whitman is about to spend on the general election will have the same kind of impact as the $100 million she spent to win the primary.
If you're a Whitman fan, the poll offers evidence that her spending is working, and thus provides hope that more spending will improve her position. She's even with the Democratic nominee in a Democratic state. She even is doing fairly well with Latinos -- receiving support of 39 percent of those in the poll, after a primary which saw a pitched battle on the immigration issue that had hurt her ratings among Latinos. A little more money -- OK, a lot more money -- and she can win this thing.
If you're a Brown fan, you read the poll this way. Even after all the money Whitman has spent and all the campaigning she's done, she isn't even ahead. Brown has barely campaigned. He has nowhere to go but up. And if spending $100 million wasn't enough to convince more than 43 percent of Californians to support Whitman, what's she really going to gain with another $100 million?

substances | nutrient
pollution | pathogens | invasive species
Nitrates and phosphates are nutrients that plants need to grow. In small amounts they are beneficial to many ecosystems. In excessive amounts, however, nutrients cause a type of pollution called eutrophication. Eutrophication stimulates an explosive growth of algae (algal blooms) that depletes the water of oxygen when the the algae die and are eaten by bacteria. Estuarine waters may become hypoxic (oxygen poor) or anoxic (completely depleted of oxygen) from algal blooms. While hypoxia may cause animals in estuaries to become physically stressed, anoxic conditions can kill them.
Eutrophication may also trigger toxic algal blooms like red tides, brown tides, and the growth of Pfiesteria. Pfiesteria is a single-celled organism that can release very powerful toxins into the water, causing bleeding sores on fish, and even killing them. Although consuming fish affected by this toxin is not harmful to humans, exposure to waters where Pfisteria blooms occur can cause serious health problems (USEPA, 1998; Howarth et al., 2000).
Eutrophication is often devastating to animals and plants in estuaries as well as the economies of communities surrounding estuaries. Toxic algal blooms disrupt tourism due to foul odors and unsightly views, and poisoned fish and shellfish adversely affect recreational and commercial fisheries (Carpenter, 1998; Howarth et al., 2000).
Nutrient pollution is the single largest pollution problem affecting coastal waters of the United States (Howarth et al., 2000). Most excess nutrients come from discharges of sewage treatment plants and septic tanks, stormwater runoff from overfertilized lawns, golf courses and agricultural fields. Over 60 percent of the coastal rivers and bays in the United States are moderately to severely affected by nutrient pollution (Howarth et al., 2000).

A favorite practice of corrupt mayors the world over is to finagle free work on their private residences in exchange for city contracts. The most grandiose local example can be found at 350 Jamaicaway near Jamaica Pond, where legendary Boston Mayor James Michael Curley (1874-1958) built a 21-room, neo-Georgian mansion almost a century ago. The place is spectacular. And it's absurd that city officials past and present haven't figured out a way to share it with the public.
Bostonians have been around this block many times since the property was bought at auction in 1988 by the city's George Robert White Fund to block a proposed condominium project. Hundreds of thousands of dollars have been poured into the renovation and maintenance of the property. Yet efforts to turn the property into a museum, conference center, inn, reception hall, and other uses have sputtered along the way. A few years ago, the Boston Finance Commission urged the city to sell the property with the distinctive shamrock shutters. That's the same fiscal watchdog group, incidentally, that conducted the initial investigation of how Curley got his hands on the property in the first place.
So what's to become of this mansion without a mission? Former Mayor Ray Flynn couldn't figure it out. Neither could outgoing Mayor Tom Menino. Various city councilors have tried their hands as well. They see it as a severe test of their political mettle, akin to pulling the proverbial sword out of the stone.
On Monday, district city councilor Matt O'Malley organized a tour of the mansion with Curley's 88-year-old stepson Richard Dennis, several professors from Wentworth Institute of Technology, and members of the city's Treasury Department. Everyone had somewhat different agendas. But as a whole, the group represented the best opportunity in decades to resolve this longstanding dilemma.
Dennis is the strongest living link to the house. He moved there at age 11 after his mother, Gertrude, married the widowed Curley in 1937. Standing coatless in subfreezing weather, Dennis pointed to the side door of the mansion along Moraine Street where down-and-out Bostonians lined up daily to receive a few dollars or chits for city jobs from Curley. Dennis doesn't ignore his stepfather's failings, including imprisonment for fraud. But he prefers on this cold day to recall how Curley gave his new Chesterfield coat to a desperate supplicant.
Dennis's dream of placing the home under the control of a nonprofit friends group isn't backed by vigorous fund-raising. But a solution could be found on a Wentworth campus known more for engineering and technology than political history. Professors there are designing an upcoming course — "Digital Approaches to Boston Culture'' — to provide students with a chance to use digital techniques "to curate and visualize various aspects of Curley's career.'' Using existing documents and artifacts from public collections, the goal will be to create a three-dimensional model of the rooms that were graced by many of the greatest politicians and entertainers of the era. And imagine if photogrammetry could capture even a fraction of the feeling of the dreadful occasion in 1950 when Curley stood by the bodies of his grown daughter Mary and son Leo, who both died from strokes on the same day. Their bodies were placed side by side in the mansion's hallway and viewed by an estimated 25,000 mourners during an 11-hour procession.
Wentworth professor Lawrence Overlan, a specialist on Curley's public works projects, is hopeful that more than a virtual museum emerges from this effort. He envisions Wentworth joining with a consortium of Fenway area colleges to support the Curley House as a venue for faculty seminars or retreats. Councilor O'Malley likes the idea, provided the deal includes docents to lead public tours on weekends.
Similar dreams have been dashed by convoluted restrictions in the George Robert White charitable fund, named for the philanthropist who bequeathed a huge endowment to the city in the 1920s to "create public works of utility and beauty.'' But attempts to do just that with the Curley house have bumped up against conflicting clauses in the trust that confound city attorneys. Perhaps Mayor-elect Martin Walsh can clear away the legal detritus.
The virtual museum is a great first step. But the side door to the mansion needs to be opened for public use again. (No one ever had much use for the front door, according to stepson Dennis.) For good or ill, Curley was the master of the personal touch. And to best understand Curley's impact on the city requires an in-person experience.

Wyatt Exploration Program
Since 2009, the Wyatt Exploration Program has provided a unique and exciting opportunity for students and faculty to join together in the intellectual exploration of the human past. Organized by the Department of History under the supervision of the Office of the Provost with financial support from the Dorothea Wyatt Endowment, the program focuses on the history and culture of a specific place or on a particular historical topic. This theme will change on an annual basis, allowing our explorations to span the history of our country and the world beyond. The department's Wyatt Fellow, a faculty member who is an expert in the field under exploration, will plan and organize the Program. Featuring affiliated course offerings, special extra-curricular events on campus, and a competition to participate in a university-funded student travel expedition, the Wyatt Exploration Program will enrich and deepen our understanding of the world and its history.
The Department of History is thrilled with this unique opportunity for learning and enrichment that the Wyatt Exploration Program will provide at the University of Michigan-Flint. The department's faculty looks forward to sharing these incredible experiences with our students and hopes that all of you will share in our excitement as we explore the history of the world around us.
Wyatt Travel Expedition
The culmination of each year's exploration will take place in either the spring or summer semester with a student travel expedition led by our Wyatt Fellow. Selected from our history majors and minors (including TCP and Honors), a group of students will be invited by the History Department to participate in this trip. Most student travel expenses will be fully funded by the Department of History. Selection will be based on several factors, including the student's academic record and coursework in the field under study. However, the primary factor to be considered will be active participation in that year's on campus Wyatt Exploration events. You don't need to have the highest GPA or to have taken courses in the subject under exploration to be selected. Rather, we are looking to assemble a diverse team of students who have demonstrated their enthusiasm and engagement with the on-campus exploration activities, who are most likely to benefit from the travel experience and who will work together most effectively as a group. Every history major or minor is truly a potential candidate for selection and we encourage all of our students to participate and apply. Students will complete and submit an application form to be considered for the selection process in winter semester.
Guest Lecture Series
A central part of the Wyatt Exploration Program is our guest lecture series. During the course of the fall and winter semesters, the program will bring celebrated scholars from around the nation and world to our campus to speak on that year's theme. This is a great opportunity to meet and learn from acknowledged experts in their field while developing a sense of history as an intellectual community, endeavor, and discipline. For history majors and minors, participation in the guest lecture series is expected of all potential candidates for the travel expedition. Although we understand that students may not be able to attend all of these sessions, please try to attend as many of these events as possible to maximize your potential as a travel expedition participant.
Coursework and Extra-Curricular Activities
A list of affiliated courses will match the subject of exploration for that year. Although primarily history courses, this list may also include courses in other disciplines that complement the theme. Students will have the opportunity to take some of these courses during the academic year. If students have already taken any of these courses in previous years, this will also be recognized in the selection process for the Wyatt Travel Expedition. The exploration program provides a wonderful opportunity for additional depth of instruction and experience for those students who are taking or have taken one or more of these courses. However, history majors and minors are still viable candidates for the travel expedition even if they have not taken any of these affiliated courses and they are encouraged to participate in other on-campus exploration activities instead. In addition to the guest lecture series and formal coursework, the Wyatt Fellow may organize co-curricular activities and discussion sessions devoted to the year's theme. All students are invited to these activities and participation will be considered in the selection process for the travel expedition.
Wyatt Exploration Passports
To chart student participation in Wyatt events, history majors and minors will receive a Wyatt Exploration Program Passport. Bring this passport to any Wyatt Exploration Program event or activity, and you will receive a stamp that verifies your attendance. Students will then submit this passport along with their travel application, and the number of stamps they have collected will be considered in the selection process for the travel expedition. Be sure to retrieve your passport each year from the History Department after the competition is over, as you can continue to use it for the following year. Stamps collected in previous years will be considered in the travel expedition selection process. So, start collecting stamps!
The generous bequest of Dr. Dorothea E. Wyatt has made the Wyatt Exploration Program possible. A stalwart supporter of her university and her discipline, Dr. Wyatt made this extraordinary gift to further develop and improve the program in history here at UM-Flint.
A graduate of Stanford University, Dr. Wyatt was one of the original sixteen faculty members of the Flint College of the University of Michigan when it was founded in 1956. She was the first chair of the Department of History and she served as the University's Counselor to Women, the Secretary to the Governing Faculty, and on countless university, college, and departmental committees throughout her career. An adored teacher, Dr. Wyatt specialized in American cultural and women's history. She was an unflagging advocate for the humanities and women's issues. In 1989, the UM-Flint recognized her dedication to the university and these issues by creating an award in her name for faculty and staff members who work to better the status of women on campus. In 1974, Dr. David M. French spoke of Dr. Wyatt's uniquely personal contribution to the university, writing, "Her greatness of spirit, her generosity, her sincere interest in students young and old… and the uninhibited way she has always shared her joy in learning and scholarship with those around her have run like a golden thread through the eighteen years since the Flint college was founded." As a scholar, Dr. Wyatt is primarily known for her biography of Julia S. Tutwiler (1841-1916), an early advocate for women's rights and educational reform in Alabama.
Dr. Wyatt was active in the local community and served a variety of organizations, including the American Association of University Women, the Zonta Club, Delta Kappa Gamma, and the Genesee County Library Board. She retired as a Professor Emeritus in 1975. Shortly before her retirement, Dr. Wyatt wrote:
What has brought us together as students and faculty in our University of Michigan- Flint College has been an abiding faith in education. We have all been seekers after knowledge: of ourselves, of the world about us, and of the ideas and ideals that have stirred and enriched mankind… For the true object of a college education is not to learn all that one will ever want to know but to acquire the ideas, habits, and methods needed in the continuous process of educating oneself during the years to come.
The Department of History at the University of Michigan-Flint is proud to be the heir of that spirit and philosophy. We believe that the Wyatt Exploration Program and other opportunities provided by Dr. Wyatt's generosity will be a fitting testament to the life of this fine teacher, scholar, and advocate.

Not only is Derrick Rose celebrating his 24th birthday Thursday, but also the release of his new sneaker and signature apparel line with Adidas.
To mark this momentous occasion, the sneaker company has released the latest installment in "The Return" series, this one titled "Push."
The video opens with Derrick describing how he pushes through pain and how he feels it sets him apart from most people. There is also footage of him running on a treadmill and riding a stationary bike with the resistance set on a high level.
From there, it transitions to D. Rose coming back to Chicago and spending time with his family. He's seen enjoying a night out bowling at 10pin Bowling Lounge on State St., but then then it's back work at the Berto Center where you actually have an opportunity to see him getting up shots.
He talks about the filming of his latest commercial, "Wake Up," which was actually shot at the United Center. Rose said he was anxious to see the response to the spot which was overwhelmingly positive while continuing to keep Bulls fans excited about his comeback. But D. Rose says despite all of the working out and scrimmages, basketball won't be the same until he's back on the court.
The video closes with his mother Brenda, his biggest fan, and the one that Rose has said on many occasions is his biggest inspiration in life. And just as she's supported him up until this point, she says that like everyone else, she'll be cheering for him when he does finally come back.
"It's the same way he did when he was in high school. After school he practiced then he went to the gym. This is what he wants; this is the life he choose. And if you want it you have to work hard to keep it and keep on going with it. So I believe he will come back and when he do, I'm going to be at the Bulls center cheering for my baby."

Loooong term WIP finished! Only 12 years in the making.....
Fast forward 12 years and I have finally finished it! Ironically it only took a few hours to complete it, and thankfully it still fitted. To liven it up and give it a mod 60s feel I added black piping and some black buttons to the shoulders. Paired with a delightful pair of black and white gingham t-bar heels I recently purchased it made the perfect summer dress to wear to work. And yes this is another early morning shot taken in my front yard on my way to work - my neighbours must think I'm like, so vain to have my photo taken every few mornings in a new outfit!
The pattern is a 1995 now OOP Butterick, and the only modification I made was to make a plain centred zipper back instead of the diamond cut out shape (which I think is actually a little 80s)
So after this little success I am going to try to make some real inroads to the UFO pile and make an extra effort to those WIPs that are in danger of morphing into UFOs (which is actually quite a lot 'cos I quickly lose interest when something stuffs up...... )

Burda World of Fashion 09/2007: my first foray.....
Anyway, even though I buy the Burda WoF magazines and have accumulated quite a few, until now I haven't actually made any of the patterns. All the effort of tracing off the patterns and trying to figure out the correct sizing without going cross eyed seemed far too much effort for this little black duck, but after seeing so many totally hip and happening creations from it's pages I thought I'd finally give it a go.
And here is my first creation - the pleated tulip skirt from the 09/2007 issue.
This was such a quick project, once I had spent an hour tracing the pattern out. I couldn't figure out where the hip line was on this pattern due to the unusual pleating, so it was way too big at first, but a little taking in at the sides and making the pleats at the front a little deeper fixed that issue and now it fits perfectly. I made this from a brown linen, no stretch and maybe a little too heavy for this skirt because it doesn't really drape, it just folds and sticks out a bit. It is really comfortable too - the wide waistband sits at just the right height for me.
However, despite the technical success of this skirt I think it is completely the wrong shape for me as I am already a severe pear shape and certainly don't need any more volume around the lower half. I did wear this skirt to work on a casual Friday, and whilst I got nice comments I think they were more polite than enthusiastic and my husband certainly summed it up by saying it looked weird. But I don't think most men 'get' women's fashion anyway......
So, this skirt may end up in a refashioning post shortly - I am thinking of converting the pleats and draping in the front to a plain centre seam with an inverted pleat to reduce the volume.

another weekend, another skirt suit
And whilst I love a sharp black suit with a killer pair of heels, appropriate for work meetings (I do work in the government in the Sydney CBD afterall), that sometimes feels too much like a uniform and I need to break free. Plus I love colour and unusual styling....
The jacket pattern is Simplicity 3874, which loads of talented bloggers out there have used made the dress, although I've not seen the jacket in action yet. I modified the jacket by pleating the jacket body at the collar instead of gathering, lining the jacket, adding the piping and the single button at the front. It was very simple to make as the jacket has raglan sleeves and it sewed up in no time at all. The skirt pattern is Vogue 9615 (OOP), a lovely A-line shape skirt with a wide waistband, which I modified by adding the piping around the waist to match the jacket. The only thing that held me up on the skirt was two, yes TWO, invisible zips breaking on me and hence requiring the skirt to be taken apart to install a new zip.

this week's op shop finds
Tuesday, 12 February 2008
Thanks Louis Vuitton for the inspiration!
It's made from cotton waffle weave from Spotlight (an Australian fabric chain store) purchased last year specifically for this project (and not for the stash yay!), and some white cotton in the same texture and weight that I had serendipitously bought early last year from an op shop (that's Aussie for thrift store)
Valentine's Day inspired post
However, in the spirit (in spite of?) the lovefest going on (mostly by retailers), I'd thought I share something related to red, love and romance..... my wedding dress!
Of course being the thrifty sewer I am, I made my wedding dress and the two bridesmaids dresses, and I even made my mum an outfit which she didn't wear because it turned out to be very hot that day indeed.
I made the frog enclosures from braiding twisted just so and then sewed on (they are for decoration only), gold for me and silver for the girls.

Sound Temple Studios is unlike any other you will experience. Simply put, Sound Temple is a world class recording studio with a very special vibe. Completed in 2011, the studio was designed by Wes Lachot from Chapel Hill, NC. It was voted in the top two studios in Western North Carolina in 2015 by Mountain Xpress readers.
The acoustics and layout of Sound Temple are impressive and unique. In designing the studio Wes Lachot used the The Fibonacci Scale and The Golden Ratio to create pure, balanced and harmonious acoustics in all the rooms. The result of all this is balanced, natural recordings with little or no EQ corrective necessary. The recording spaces include a rather large live room (10′ ceilings) that is great for recording drums, piano, solo instruments or ensembles. The three roomy iso-booths (yes, three) each have a unique sound with the middle booth having the most transparent acoustics with one entire wall of RPG Bad Panel Diffusors. The diffusors make the sonic footprint of the room nearly "disappear" when recording larger instruments like our Yamaha C6 grand piano or a drum kit. Overall there are a total of six recording/isolation spaces including the two smaller sound locks. If you would prefer to let everything "bleed" in one big acoustical space, the double doors in the 3 main iso-booths can open up for tons of ambient bleed right into the live room. Finally, there are great sight lines for everyone through windows no matter where you are in the studio.
Tracking and mixing in the control room is truly a wonderful experience. The large control room is treated with RPG Diffusers, RPG Bad Panels, custom bass traps and absorption. There are reflection free zones in the front and back so you trust what you hear. A prominent engineer recently commented that it was the best sounding control room he had ever heard. (See gallery of studio construction here.)
Opposite the studio is a beautiful lounge, kitchenette and artist's bedroom/meditation room, and a full bath and laundry facilities. This creates a wonderful artist apartment with free lodging available. Sound Temple really is a world class "destination studio". Come and stay in the apartment, record in the amazing studio and enjoy the incredible mountains of North Carolina.
Owner/engineer/producer Robert George has been working with new and seasoned artists from all over the country for over 30 years, has taught audio engineering at UNCA and does private audio tutoring in the Asheville area. Robert is easy to work with and brings a positive energy to a project that can have a wonderful impact on the final outcome. His basic work style is best described in his own words. "It is my job and my joy to bring forth the true creative expression from an artist or group. During the recording process, this expression needs to be molded into a form that is accessible to as many people as possible while totally honoring the intent of the music and musicians". A graduate of The University of Miami School of Music in 1980, he has worked in major studios in Miami, Nashville, his own studio in Florida and most recently his new studio in Asheville N.C. Robert's skills as a recording engineer, producer, mastering engineer, songwriter, drummer, and businessman have laid the foundation for the success of Sound Temple Studios.

Comtech Telecommunications Corp. announced that its Tempe, Arizona-based subsidiary, Comtech EF Data Corp., received $1 M in orders from a mobile operator to support the expansion of a satellite-based telecommunications network in Latin America. An assortment of ground station equipment was ordered, including modems, block up converters and frequency converters.
Several models of Comtech EF Data's bandwidth-efficient modems were selected, including the CDM-625 Advanced Satellite Modem, the CDM-700 High-Speed Satellite Modem and the CDM-570 Satellite Modem. The modems use technologically advanced components, innovative designs and application software for superior performance and features. The functionality provided by the modems enables users to maximize satellite resources, increase link throughput and service quality, and reduce both the OPEX and the CAPEX associated with satellite networks — all particularly beneficial in bandwidth-challenged regions.
Also specified in the order were the LPOD Block Up Converter, the DT-4503 Down Converter and the UT-4505 Up Converter. The LPOD is an outdoor unit that eliminates the requirement for a modem to supply a DC power source and a 10 MHz reference to the BUCs and LNBs. The DT-4503 and UT-4505 are indoor, rack-mountable units that support the patented daisy chain switching, and provide high performance, cost-effective frequency conversion.
"Comtech was selected to power the expansion of this mobile operator's state-of-the-art network based on the link optimization and operational benefits our equipment can deliver," commented Fred Kornberg, President and Chief Executive Officer of Comtech Telecommunications Corp.

I m a Personal Injury Lawyer and founder of Fountain Law Firm serving seriously injured clients throughout all of Central Indiana.
Before long it will be two decades since I decided to devote my career to helping people injured through the fault of others get the just compensation they deserve. Until you are a personal injury victim, you have no idea how it can affect your life and your family. My name is Merry Fountain and I was injured in a car accident and suffered from neck pain, facial scarring and a broken hand. Based on my negative experience with the insurance industry and legal system, I pledged to make that career change. I put myself through law school while working full-time.
After receiving my law degree from Indiana University School of Law, I soon opened my own firm to compassionately represent personal injury victims. Since then, I have been honored to help hundreds of people like you and their families.
Drawing on my experience, I will personally handle your case and make it a priority. You will not get lost in the legal system or passed off to someone who is not a lawyer.

My personal experience as a victim in an auto collision was the reason I became a personal injury attorney. Before I was an attorney, the driver of company truck ran a red light and crashed through my driver´s door. My hand was broken, I had to have plastic surgery on my face, and my neck was injured. The insurance company for the other driver tried to give me the run around, and I hired an attorney to help me.
After that, I decided to dedicate my life to helping other personal injury victims protect their legal rights against insurance companies and big corporations. I only practice in personal injury, and since becoming an attorney have helped thousands of others. I am aggressive in pursuing the rights of clients and compassionate with them. By the way, if for any reason you cannot get to my office, I will gladly come to you.

Journalist/Documentary film Producer and Director Justin N.K. Savage and wife Nancy-Elizabeth Savage (Nancy-Elizabeth Hudson) You looking at my mother and father.
Justin Nobleman Kodwo Savage was a professional journalist, documentary film producer and director, born at Cape Coast, in the central region of Ghana in 1932. While in active service, he passed away on January 29, 1976.
At Guinea Press, now 'The Ghanaian Times' during the Kwame Nkrumah era, Mr. Savage travelled extensively across the globe, whenever the president leaves the country to participate in world affairs.
At home, Ghanaians were able to receive first-hand information from Mr. Savage, over Nkrumah's trip overseas, appearing in 'The Evening News,' newspaper dominated by party news, CPP, and adulation of Nkrumah.
At Guinea Press, Justin Savage had the opportunity to make further studies in journalism in London, England, but Nkrumah's interest in communism took him off Ghana soil to many Eastern European countries including Poland, Czechoslovakia etc, and Russia.
In the sixties, the president of the then Czechoslovakia invited African journalists to his country. Justin Savage heads the African journalists from Ghana, but the Ghanaians presence stole the show, because of the native Kente cloth they put on. Kente exposes the rich tradition and culture of Ghana.
Justin Savage filed his press cuts and combined all his publications which appeared in the newspapers as a magazine, naming it "A Mixture Of Periodicals." These publications later after his death, became my favourite book, assisting me to gain more writing skills when my interest increased to be a writer.
Darkness fell on Ghana when Nkrumah was overthrown-ed on February 24, 1966, in a coup organized by CIA and local collaborators. Chaos and curfews followed amidst jubilation and sadness. Mr. Savage served Guinea press a year more and he resigned.
He followed a course in technology at the Kumasi Science and Technology, where he studied film production. After his course, he entered into Ghana Broadcasting Corporation as 'Advisor on film for television.'
He excelled in his profession and had promotions. It wasn't long when Friedrich Ebert Foundation (West German Television Team) established a television project attached to the Broadcasting House in Ghana.
The Friedrich-Ebert-Stiftung is a German political foundation named after Friedrich Ebert, Germany's first democratically elected president. Headquartered in Bonn and Berlin, the foundation contributes to social democracy by means of:
Political education in order to reinforce its fundamental values, research and scientific analysis of central policy areas, various forms of public dialogue in order to pave the way for it, scholarship programs for students and Ph.D. candidates, development cooperation aimed at global justice and building bridges of international cooperation for worldwide democracy.
For efficient service and to be familiar with new developments in television production, Mr. Savage was at West German for an intensive course. He returned to the Broadcasting House and was appointed 'Documentary Film Producer and Director.
At the Ghana Broadcasting Corporation, he made a number of documentary films, especially during the exhibition of Ghana and other African products at both the first and second 'Ghana International Trade Fair,' in Accra.
Kodwo, the name his co-workers loved to call him, did a number of documentary films, including 'Ghana At A Glance, Cocoa In Ghana, Backyard Industries and 'Furnace in a Village', produced in 1972. I had the opportunity to play a role in 'Backyard Industries.'
I grew up to see some of his friends such as Mr. Kofi Badu, the Managing Director of Daily Graphic and Mr. Willie Donkor, the Editor of Weekly Spectator, still in the media. In the early nineties, January, I contacted one of my father's friends called Mr. Ebo Biney, at the Broadcasting House, requesting if he could telecast one of my father's film on January 29, for remembrance. It came as a shock to me when I learned that all my father's films got burnt, following a fire which engulfed Ghana Broadcasting Corporation some time ago.
Since then I have been working very hard to see if I can find any of my father's work online, despite far behind computer age or advanced modern technology. Like winning a lotto, I discovered two. The first is at the website of Len Pole, a Museum Consultant: "Advisor on a film for television, 'Furnace in a Village', produced by Kodwo Savage, Ghana Broadcasting Corporation, 1972." – http://www.lenpole.com/I contacted the museum consultant after the discovery of my father's work on his website. I was delighted when he told a few years ago 'Furnace in a village' was shown at Cannes Film Festival.
Then I had a new break through when I discovered another work at: Selected Bibliography in Communication – jstor by Graham B. Kerr, under the topic- All African governments are committed to development and most wish to …Journalism Quarterly [forthcoming]. ….. SAVAGE, J.N.K. "Ghana Jugend begeistert.- . "Ghana inspires youth."
The selected Bibliography in Communication is a book published by the Canadian Association of African Studies. Justin Savage writes:
"We must bridge the gap between leaders and masses, between government and people . . No government tells the people everything, but every government must reach the people so as to tell them what they should be told" – Julius Nyerere
Continue reading: https://www.jstor.org/stable/pdf/483601.pdf?
The search for my father's work isn't yet over. As time goes on when I discover something new, I will keep on updating this article. I hope readers will enjoy reading it and if any reader has any suggestion to improve it, you are always welcome.
The incredible story of this great writer neglected when he was a child is now available at Amazon: http://www.amazon.co.uk/The-Writer-Died-Joel-Savage-ebook/dp/B013L54A7O

This is done in Microsoft SQL Server 2008 R2.
I'll start out with an example table.
I need the MoneyAmountAvg column to have a value of MoneyAmount/(# of times that organization shows up)Code:Organization | MoneyAmount | MoneyAmountAvg ISD | 500 | ISD | 500 | ISD | 500 | QWE | 250 | ISD | 500 | QWE | 250 | OLP | 800 | ISD | 500 |
So for example, the MoneyAmountAvg column for the ISD rows would have a value of 100.
QWE would have 125 for each row in the MoneyAmountAvg column and OLP would have a value of 800 since it is there only once.
This is only an example table. The actual table is much bigger and has more organizations, but it has the same criteria. Some organizations have multiple rows, while others are there only once.
I just need a way for it to count how many times each organization is listed when I use an update statement for that organization's MoneyAmountAvg column. Hard coding it for each organization is definitely not an option since they can change at any moment.
Any help is appreciated.

NEW YORK -- It has been an October to remember for San Jose Earthquakes forward Chris Wondolowski.
His six goals in the final month of the MLS regular season helped the Quakes clinch a playoff berth, they earned him the MLS Golden Boot and on Wednesday they made him October Player of the Month as voted on by the North American Soccer Reporters (NASR).
Wondolowski scored all six of his team's goals in October and earned two Player of the Week honors for his efforts. The run started with a 2-0 road win at D.C. United, where Wondo's brace allowed the Quakes to clinch a postseason berth for the first time since the club was reborn three years ago.
He did one better on Oct. 20 at home against Chivas USA, as his hat trick in a 3-0 win catapulted him to a share of the league's scoring lead alongside Edson Buddle.
Three days later, Wondolowski netted what turned out to be an insignificant goal in a 4-1 loss at Kansas City, but it was enough to give him the lead for good in the chase for the MLS Golden Boot with 18 goals.
The local boy done good story will continue this Saturday night as the Earthquakes welcome Rafa Márquez and the New York Red Bulls for the first leg of their first-round playoff series (10 p.m. ET, TeleFutura).
2010 MLS Player of the Month Winners
April: Edson Buddle (LA Galaxy)
May: Alvaro Saborio (Real Salt Lake)
June: Nick Rimando (Real Salt Lake)
July: Fredy Montero (Seattle Sounders)
August: Kevin Hartman (FC Dallas)
September: Omar Cummings (Colorado Rapids)

The car-against-motorcycle racing trope has been around for a while, with now- predictable results: Motorcycles are straight-line monsters, while the stability of four wheels gives the cornering advantage to cars. Leave it to France's Moto-Journal to ponder whether this is still true on snowpack in the middle of winter.
Yes, really, in two classes: Two Yamahas — an Open-class R1 superbike and a YZF450 dirtbike — pitted against a Porsche 911 GT3 RS and Mitsubishi Evo, respectively, all wearing utterly evil spiked tires, going at it at four below Fahrenheit. Yes, the R1 is getting up to a monumentally insane 258 kph (160 mph) on snow, at which point the wind chill would probably liquefy nitrogen. No, we don't think that's why the rider is wearing a cape.
The results aren't made clear, although it did look like the Porsche got around the R1 while the Evo couldn't pull it off against the YZF450. Also uncertain is how many lattés it took to defrost the bikers.

Cheers! If only I could figure out how to compress images (to be within the 1000px/300kb limit) without completely ruining them...
*Tried to upload a better one... it kinda worked but not really?

http://perthbus.info/report.php?vid=TP1744# says it's been decommissioned, but it is definitely still out there carrying passengers around...
1743 and 44 have had an interesting past few weeks. They were briefly stored before heading to Mandurah for a week or two, then headed up to Freo. I think 1196 swapped with 1743 (ie. 1743 went back to Joondalup and 1196 went down to Freo), but I have no idea why
1178 - 80 also are back home at Freo (since Mandurah had 2906-8 delivered which replaced them).

The Fédération Internationale de Ski (FIS) was founded in 1924. Skiing made its Olympic debut the same year at the 1924 Chamonix Winter Games.
Skiing disciplines
In one form or other skiing has been a permanent feature on the Olympic Winter Games programme since 1924. The current six disciplines of skiing are alpine, cross country, ski jumping, Nordic combined, freestyle and snowboarding. The first four are rich in history whilst the latter two are relative newcomers growing in popularity. To compete in these various disciplines one needs to master speed, endurance, dexterity, and determination.
Alpine – downhill and super-G
The alpine competition consists of ten events: five each for women and men. The downhill features the longest course and the highest speeds in alpine skiing. Super-G stands for super giant slalom, an event that combines the speed of downhill with the more precise turns of giant slalom. In these events each skier makes one run down a single course and the fastest time determines the winner.
Alpine – slaloms/super combined
The slalom is the alpine event with the shortest course and the quickest turns. The giant slalom has fewer turns and wider, smoother turns. In both events, each skier makes two runs down two different courses on the same slope. The times are added and the fastest total time determines the winner. In the so-called super combined event, one shortened downhill run is followed by a one-run slalom. The times are added together and the fastest total time determines the winner.
Cross country
The cross country competition consists of 12 different cross country skiing events. Women compete in the sprint, team sprint, 10km individual start, 15km pursuit, 30km mass start and the 4x5km relay. Men compete in the sprint, team sprint, 15km individual start, 30km pursuit, 50km mass start and the 4x10km relay.
Ski jumping
Ski jumping is currently competed by men and there are three events: the individual normal hill, the individual large hill and the team event on the large hill. In the individual events each athlete gets two jumps and the athlete with the highest combined score is the winner. In the team event, each team has four members and the field is reduced to the eight best teams after the first jump.
Nordic combined
There are three Nordic combined events, each consisting of a ski jumping competition and a cross-country skiing race. For the normal hill Gundersen event, ski jumping takes place on the normal hill (90m). For the team and the large hill Gundersen events, ski jumping takes place on the large hill (120m). The cross country portion of the Gundersen events has a 10km race and the team event has a 4x5km relay.
There are six snowboarding events on the programme of the Olympic Winter Games: men's and women's halfpipe, men's and women's parallel giant slalom, men's and women's snowboard cross.
Freestyle skiing
As of the Vancouver Games, there will be three freestyle skiing events each for women and men on the Olympic programme. In addition to the aerial and mogul competitions, ski cross will make its debut in 2010. The mass start of all four racers sets the stage for fast and exciting competition designed to test the skiers' skills in turns of a variety of types and sizes, flat sections and traverses, as well as rolls, banks and ridges. The fastest skier wins.
