Peter Handlinger: Set the expectation every one must train others
By Peter Handlinger, - Last updated: lundi, août 4, 2014 - Save & Share - Leave a comment
Other than having a good look at the practice of recruitment and succession planning criteria it is assumed that this person is already in the position. Clearly incompetence is not going to benefit the business or, in the longer term, the incumbent so the short answer is clear - remove. But before this process is establish it might be an idea to go back to basics and have a look at these measures (I know they are as old as the hills but still very relevant): 1. Can't do 2. Can do under supervision 3. Can do on own 4. Can train others It would be useful to set as a standard / expectation that the incumbent must be able to train others. By doing so you are forcing the person to take an active part in propagating the ideals and practice of lean. This forces the incumbent to not just do the 'job' but to do 'job + kaizen'. Anyone who has trained will understand that this is far from passive and also affords the leader/manager to make a meaningful evaluation of performance. If not up to standard then the only way is for due process to be instituted - with honourable intent and abiding by local regulations. Peter

Chris Brown out of anger-management stint in rehab
CHRIS Brown has left rehab.
The 24-year-old star is no longer staying at a treatment facility in Malibu, California, where he was seeking help in order to "gain focus and insight" into his previous behaviour to enable him to pursue his life and career from a "healthier vantage point".
The singer's representative told E! News: "Chris is continuing his rehab program as an outpatient and is also completing his community service in the Los Angeles area. He appreciates all of your encouragement and support."
The 'Forever' hitmaker was receiving lots of psychological counselling in rehab after acknowledging he has a major anger management problem.
Chris voluntarily checked himself into the centre days after he was arrested for assault following an incident where he allegedly punched a man outside a hotel on October 27.
This was the latest in a string of allegations of violent behaviour from the star.
Chris was involved in a parking lot brawl with singer Frank Ocean in January and he got into a dispute with rapper Drake at a nightclub in 2012.
In addition, he was sued by a California woman Deanna Gines who who has accused him of battery at a nightclub last June.
Meanwhile, Chris is still on probation for assaulting then-girlfriend Rihanna, 25, in February 2009.

BADSIG error with aptitude/apt
Have been running Debian Squeeze 6.x on my desktop at work for quite a while now, and lately had a problem where I was repeatedly getting BADSIG errors with a couple of repos. Mostly debian-multimedia, and also with security.debian.org as well.
The solution was to comment out the problematic repos, and then do:
aptitude update
after this enable the repos again and run:
aptitude update
after this all was OK again. I had seem some posts where it suggested reinstalling the keyrings, but this never solved the problem for me.

Now, readers can follow the rich history and the changing boundaries of this colony, which has included what is now Maine and which has at times been part of Massachusetts. Scott Auden's narrative also details the challenges of daily colonial life, how good relations with the native Abenaki deteriorated into nearly a century of warfare, and the daring deeds of New Hampshire Patriots during the War of Independence.

DENVER — If he didn't read the tweets and the blogs and the stories, he was certainly made aware of them. People started to bail out on Will Middlebrooks.
Maybe he wasn't that good after all. Maybe his rookie season was an aberration. Maybe he never would live up to the power-hitting expectations people had for him.
This was the classic sophomore jinx.
After a horrible start to the 2013 season, in which he couldn't get over the Mendoza Line, the second-year Red Sox third baseman went back to the minors with no guarantee he'd be back soon. He was an exercise in frustration — and then determination that he wasn't going to leave his career, his livelihood, his chance for riches on a minor league field in Pawtucket, R.I.
So he fought for it. Sometimes he needed to adjust his attitude and sometimes others had to adjust it for him. But in the end — after two recalls and demotions — he was a major leaguer again, the Red Sox starting third baseman, and the player who used to have opposing scouts oohing and aahing and telling you things like, "The ball sounds so different off his bat."
It's a noise that few major leagues produce. Middlebrooks does.
His is the story of a young player having instant success, then struggling, then making the adjustments to get the feeling back.
And now, after hitting .294 with six home runs and 17 RBIs in 37 games since being recalled Aug. 10, he finally can admit the demotion did him a world of good.
"Yeah, absolutely it did me good," Middlebrooks said before Tuesday night's game against the Rockies. "At first it was frustrating. Nobody wants to get demoted, but after a week, I could see the big picture and see that I needed to work on getting my body right and getting fundamentally right.
"Once I got to the point where I could see the big picture, I was able to get myself back right and work toward getting back."
We'll say what Middlebrooks never wanted to say: He was hurt. Plain and simple. He was coming off a major wrist injury that cut short his 2012 season and then developed a back injury that threw his swing completely out of kilter.
As someone who never had to deal with any major physical problem, Middlebrooks became helpless at the plate and in the field, making adjustments just to ease the discomfort and getting into the worst habits.
"The biggest thing for me was that I was able to get healthy," he said. "I was playing with stuff all year and I was able to get rid of that. I had nothing holding me down. Baseball is twisting and bending — if your back hurts, you can't do that. It restricted me for a while."
Did he come back too soon?
"I think so," he said. "That's just me being competitive and wanting to get out here. I thought I was ready. There were things I was doing fundamentally that weren't good. I created bad habits trying to make adjustments because I was injured.
"I had to get back to the basic and real things. And that time in Pawtucket working with Gary [DiSarcina] got me back to what I needed to be doing."
Frustration set in when Middlebrooks wouldn't get the call back up, even when roster spots opened in Boston. because of trades or injuries
"Yeah, it was frustrating, but at the same time, there was never a set timetable," he said. "My play would dictate when it was time. I was trying to keep my head down and work.
"I have enough trust in Ben [Cherington] and John [Farrell]. If they didn't feel I was ready, then I wasn't ready."
Between Pawtucket and Boston, Middlebrooks has hit 25 home runs this year. The power bat is alive and well. He's looking more like the player he was in 2012, when he was the brightest light in an otherwise miserable Red Sox season.
"I'm a gap-to-gap guy, not a dead-pull guy," Middlebrooks said. "When I'm using all fields that's where I'm at my best."
Also this year, the scouting reports on him were mounting.
"Once you have success a certain way, you're going to get attacked," said Middlebrooks. "They're going to exploit everything, every weakness and flaw at this level.
"Sometimes I get overaggressive at the plate and I beat myself. I don't walk a lot, and that's going to be something I grow into over time."
He's learning how to prepare better for a game. He's also working with Jonny Gomes on how to attack pitchers.
"I sit down with Jonny a lot and watch pitchers and I've learned to put together a creative plan with each guy and each situation," Middlebrooks said. "I would just go in and watch a couple of a pitcher's last two starts, but Jonny opened my eyes about watching a pitcher and how he pitches when he has runners in scoring position because that's when you'll see his best stuff."
While he doesn't like to set goals because "sometimes you set them too high and you can't achieve them, and you don't want to get down on yourself," he envisions a .280-plus hitter with 30 homers and 100 RBIs.
Where he'll play is another story. He already has made one start at first base. Being a good athlete, he has position flexibility. He could wind up at first or in the outfield. Or he could stay at third if the Red Sox decide Xander Bogaerts will be their shortstop in the future.
"I just want to play," said Middlebrooks. "I trust in this staff. They know what's best for me and my career."
The Red Sox probably could have parted with him in various trades, but they resisted.
Middlebrooks has gone through his growing pains. He understands what happened. He currently is in a 5-for-39 funk. But he seems better equipped to handle it now.
He's learning how major leaguers have to play with injuries. In fact, it was Dwight Evans who recently commented on how Carl Yastrzemski taught him as a young player how to not only play hurt but to play hurt at a high level. He also taught Evans how to avoid the prolonged slumps.
"I had success through 75 games last season and I had some small struggles," said Middlebrooks. "But this year I had a three-month struggle and I couldn't get out of it. There was constantly something to have to overcome. It just snowballed on me."
It was just a sophomore jinx. Just a blip on what might be a pretty significant career.

People often cringe when they hear about high student-to-faculty ratios and the size of some undergraduate classes. While I agree that the University of Central Florida's number of faculty is desperately in need of a large infusion, I do not agree that large classes are the hallmark of an educational system lacking in quality and empathy.

Eastern Cape hockey players we are bringing our courses to you! And are pleased to announce that joining our coaching line-up will be home-grown former SA Hockey and Border player, Marcelle Manson. She will be at Stirling High School in East London on 18 and 19 March, together with our star-studded line-up of SA's top hockey players and coaches, to share their knowledge and expertise with aspiring young players.
Border hockey player, Marcelle Manson (Nee Keet), is a midfielder/defender and has amazingly represented SA in both hockey and water polo, making her knowledge of professional sport invaluable. She has competed in the FINA World Championships, the FIH Hockey World Cup and the Commonwealth Games. Marcelle made her debut in the 2005 Africa Cup at the age of 23 and has also co-captained the SA Women's Hockey team.
In 2013, Marcelle reached 100 caps for the SA Women's Hockey team – a highlight in her professional career. Marcelle is passionate about making her mark on the future of the sport and is delighted to be coaching in our set of courses in her province.
At the Investec Hockey Academy, we pride ourselves on developing SA's passionate, upcoming and aspiring hockey players and coaches to help grow the sport nationally and, subsequently, better the future of SA Women's Hockey.
Our training is more than physical skills training, it allows for personal development through a comprehensive look at current international tactical and technical trends used by professionals, providing an understanding of what it takes to play at the highest level. In order to accommodate all levels of school ho
Working with current SA Women's Hockey player, Shelley Russell, we have tailored our courses to cover every aspect necessary to facilitate the growth of hockey players.
Important aspects such as mental toughness, functional ability, vision training, fitness, nutrition, recovery techniques and athlete education in general are key focuses of our courses.
Marcelle's shares her advice to young sportswomen: "Find a dream or make a goal or strive for something in your life that you really love. No matter what happens in your journey, keep going and never give up. Surround yourself with a good support base of good people, family and friends. Don't wait for others or your coach to push you, if you really want something so bad, work hard for it, don't wait for it, go out and get it. At the end of the day it's about how badly you want it."
The courses for players offered by the Investec Hockey Academy are the Fundamental Players' Course (ages 8 to 11), an Intermediate Players' Course (ages 12 to 15) and an Advanced Players' Course (ages 16 to 18).

Looks like the carousel will not be making a return to Jantzen Beach Center after all:
http://pamplinmedia.com/pt/9-news/37154 ... -a-new-run
It was the last remaining piece of the amusement park that once occupied the site, and survived the last big remodel in the 1990s. But what was left of the enclosed portion of the mall, where this was located, was torn down and the carousel placed into storage. The mall's owner was very quiet about what happened to it until recently.

Discussion in 'Networking' started by ilaser, Aug 24, 2007.
Hi Guys
I need some help accessing ld card when networking via router, I
If you are trying to access the computer via the internet (outside the router) to a computer behind the router, you need to set up the router to forward port 9021(I think this is the correct one) to the the ip of the computer that is running the pangolin network application.
As far as I know, there are at least two ports used by Pangolin.
3348 and 9021. Both have to be forwarded to your QM2000 host computer directly by the router.
Separate names with a comma.

If as a boy I had witnessed my little brother drown (CPR resuscitated) in the family pool then as an adult I witnessed one of my classmates in SAR school drown (Oxygen bottle resuscitated). The SAR drowning exacerbated the earlier PTSD from childhood. Does that fall under the purview of the law?
Also, as a Navy whistle-blower in 1985., when the US Navy branded, slandered and libeled me publicly in the press, and in the very halls of Congress while I testified to Congress about the $320,000,000 fraud, waste and abuse on the USS Kitty Hawk. The mental trauma I received prior to that from being thrown into the streets with seventy-two days left on active duty, without any support from the Navy, made me feel as abandoned as Chuck Connors in the television show Branded™. Being branded, and drummed out of service, and then having the VA turn its back on me since 1993, has left me twenty-five years later with Dysthymia, MDD, PTSD and Panic Attacks.
I am not in good health and am mentally and 100% physically permanently disabled. I went to the VA last week for a meeting with my third psychiatrist in five months. Yeah, one part assembly-line socialized medicine, one part shuffle the buck and the final piece - having my psychologist insult me multiple times.
Anyway, I had a melt down and yelled at the new psychiatrist, which turns out is NOT a good way to let off anger. Of course, until the VA approves my service connected, and service caused claim, the shrinks can't actually talk with me about what is causing my mental problems and anguish - Catch-22.
They almost admitted me - that scares me. My wife was there and assured them just because I yelled doesn't make me dangerous. I was just pissed-off about be pissed-on by the VA.
I just want fair and legal compensation, and treatment, so I can have an opportunity to once again see happiness in the world - instead, of hidden threats from ghostly foes.

High court hears medical marijuana case
Members of Nevada's Supreme Court seemed to agree Monday that the constitutional amendment permitting medical marijuana requires Nevada to provide a way for patients to get the drug legally.
But they questioned whether the answer is to toss a case or give prosecutors the go-ahead to try the operator of the now-closed Sin City co-op on multiple counts of selling pot.
Nathan Hamilton and Leonard Schwingdorf were indicted on drug charges, and the co-op shut down. But Clark County District Judge Donald Mosley threw out the charges this year, saying the old medical marijuana law "frustrates the constitutional mandate to reasonably provide a method for lawfully obtaining medical marijuana."
Clark County prosecutors appealed, asking the high court to reinstate the charges and let them take the case to trial.
Chief Criminal Deputy Christopher Laurent argued the voter-approved medical marijuana provision "does not provide for a constitutional right to sell a controlled substance.
"It seems to me citizens have been forced into, you can have it but there's no way to get it," said Chief Justice Kris Pickering.
She was joined by Justice Jim Hardesty, who said, "I must be naïve here, but doesn't the Constitution compel the Legislature to address the supply question?"
"The answer seems to be get it off the street or get it from Mexico," he said, answering his own question.
The Sin City and similar cases helped persuade the 2013 Legislature to pass a bill creating a legal system of growers and stores where legitimate medical marijuana cardholders can purchase the drug. In addition, the federal Justice Department has since announced the government has no intention to go after Washington and Colorado, which have decriminalized use of pot, let alone the increasing number of states with medical marijuana laws.
Hardesty said a key question arresting officers failed to answer was whether the money they gave Schwingdorf was a voluntary donation or payment for the drug. He asked what would have happened if they had walked out without giving Sin City that "donation."
Laurent said he views the donation as the price of the drug, but Gary Modafferi and Joseph Lowe, representing Schwingdorf, said that's not true. They said officers simply failed to ask whether they had to pay. Modafferi said they would have been allowed to leave without doing so: "You didn't have to pay for it."
The court asked for a copy of the co-op membership agreement to help answer that question.
Modafferi said the minutes of the legislative hearing on the new law allowing licensing of pot growers and dispensaries clearly states that the reason for it is that the law in effect when Schwingdorf was arrested doesn't provide a legal way to get marijuana.
"This is the closest the Legislature will ever get to saying it's our fault," he told the court.
He added that Schwingdorf and his partner, Nathan Hamilton, now deceased, never intended to violate any laws. He pointed out that they registered as a nonprofit with the state and got a city business license before opening the co-op.
"They were trying to do everything they can to be within the letter of the law," he said.
The court took the case under submission.

A new Japanese trailer for the beautiful-looking RPG Ni no Kuni has gone online. The PlayStation 3 game was created by Level-5 (the folks behind the Professor Layton games) and Studio Ghibli, the animation studio co-created by the legendary Hayao Miyazaki (Spirited Away). I can't remember the last time I saw a video game that was so visually stunning. I have no idea what's being said by anyone in this trailer, but there are plenty of crazy Japanese RPG elements floating around and there seems to be a nice variety of combat, puzzles, and exploration. Level-5 put together some great RPGs on other systems (Rogue Galaxy, Jeanne d'Arc, and Dragon Quest VIII), but they're still looking for their PS3 RPG hit since the also-visually-impressive White Knight Chronicles games have been met with a lukewarm-at-best response. If Ni no Kuni's gameplay matches its visuals, it will be one of the best games ever made.
Hit the jump to check out the trailer. Ni no Kuni (literally translated as "Second Country: The Queen of White Sacred Ash") hits stores in Japan on November 17th and is due out in the U.S. in early 2012.

Research Article - Biomedical Research (2017) Volume 28, Issue 11
Roles of pulmonary vascular endothelial cell injury and dimethylargininedimethylaminohydrolase/nitric oxide synthase/nitric oxide-system changes in the occurrence of diabetic sepsis in rats
The aim of this study was to investigate the roles of Pulmonary Microvascular Endothelial Cell Injury (PMECI) and Nitric Oxide (NO) system in diabetic sepsis in rats. 64 Wistar rats were randomly divided into group A (the normal control group), group B (the sepsis group), group C (the diabetes group), and group D (the diabetic sepsis group), the content of pulmonary Evans blue (EBD) was measured; the pulmonary microvascular permeability was observed; specific Tyrosine kinase receptor 2 (Tie-2) mRNA in whole blood was measured by Polymerase Chain Reaction (PCR) assay to understand the amount of endothelial cells in the circulation; the content of NO in serum/lung tissues, as well as the content of inducible Nitric Oxide Synthase (iNOS) mRNA/endothelial Nitric Oxide Synthase (eNOS) mRNA in lung tissues, were detected to observe the roles of NO system. The EBD content in group D was the highest, followed by group B, and exhibited statistical difference than group A and C (P<0.01); Tie-2 mRNA in group D was significantly increased than the other three groups (P<0.01); the NO contents in the serum and lung tissues of group B/D were higher than the other two groups. The iNOS mRNA content in group D was the highest, while that of eNOS mRNA was the lowest, and the differences were statistically significant (P<0.05). Diabetes associated with sepsis might aggravate endothelial cell injury, and it was considered to be related with the imbalanced adjustments of the NO system.Author(s): Xiujuan Liu, Fuzai Yin, Kun Wei, Yue Zheng, Lanxiang Liu, Fang Qiu, Yonghong Xie, Shufeng Xu, En Mu, Yingjian Liang, Zhidan Zhang, Xiaochun Ma

HOUSTON (AP) Collin McHugh earned his first win of the season Saturday night, but he was quick to give credit to his defense and the six double plays they turned.
McHugh threw six innings, Marwin Gonzalez hit a two-run single and the Houston Astros defeated the Oakland Athletics 3-0.
McHugh (1-2) gave up six hits and struck out three.
''I might have gotten a bit more efficient (as the game wore on), but six double plays, that helps,'' McHugh said. ''When I was out there, I think there were three or four of them. That will end an inning and a rally pretty quickly. I was fortunate to get a couple of those.''
McHugh, who missed the first 3 1/2 months with right shoulder tendinitis and a right elbow injury, has allowed two runs or fewer in four of his six starts this season.
''He had to battle early; they really made him work and he had really deep counts early on,'' Houston manager A.J. Hinch said. ''And when he found the feel for his breaking ball that was good. His fastball was pretty good.''
Oakland didn't get a runner past second base thanks in large part to the double plays.
''I know we made an error at the end, but we played pretty clean defense which is something,'' Hinch said. ''We need to turn these double plays.''
The six double plays are the most by an AL team this season.
''There were a lot today,'' Alex Bregman said. ''Jose Altuve was unbelievable. The way he's turning double plays lately is the best I've ever seen him do it. It's fun to watch. It gets you excited to play defense. He's a superstar on defense.''
After Altuve and Josh Reddick walked and Yuli Gurriel singled to lead off the fourth, Gonzalez followed with his two-run single. Kendall Graveman (3-4) induced flyouts from Carlos Beltran, Juan Centeno and Derek Fisher to prevent further damage.
Bregman added a solo home run over the train tracks above the left field wall to lead off the eighth.
Houston improved to 12-2 against the A's this year.
''You saw the same game I did,'' Oakland manager Bob Melvin said. ''Just not very good swings at times. Got to give the pitcher some credit. He threw the ball pretty well but I expect us to hit some balls harder than we did tonight.''
Francisco Liriano pitched the seventh, Joe Musgrove the eighth and Tyler Clippard the ninth for his fourth save and first with the Astros.
Graveman allowed two runs and six hits with three strikeouts in six innings. Graveman had his second straight good outing after allowing two runs in seven innings against Baltimore on Monday.
''I thought I located the baseball well tonight,'' Graveman said. ''Overall I think my stuff was good, we mixed in some more offspeed pitches tonight than usual. The two walks definitely hurt there in the fourth inning.''
Astros: SS Carlos Correa (thumb) fielded ground balls and hit inside before the game, Hinch said. ... LHP Tony Sipp (right calf) and RHP Will Harris (right shoulder) were doing well after their live bullpen sessions Friday, Hinch said. ... C Evan Gattis (concussion) went through a catching workout Saturday, Hinch said. Harris, Sipp and Gattis are trending toward rehab assignments next week, Hinch said.
The Astros celebrated the 1997 NL Central division champions Saturday by wearing the jersey from that year. Hall of Famers Craig Biggio and Jeff Bagwell, Shane Reynolds and Larry Dierker took part in a pregame ceremony celebrating the team. Dierker, who was the manager of the team, threw out the first pitch to Hinch.
A day after being hit in the left hand by a foul ball, Jerry Layne was the third base umpire. Layne left Friday's game with a left hand contusion. Layne wore a brace on his left hand.
Athletics: RHP Jharel Cotton (5-10) will start Sunday looking to bounce back after allowing six runs in six innings in a loss to the Royals on Monday. Cotton is 0-2 with an 8.27 ERA since returning from the disabled list July 30.
Astros: RHP Brad Peacock (10-1) starts Sunday looking to rebound after being tagged for four runs in 4 1/3 innings in his last start Tuesday in Arizona. Peacock is 2-0 with a 2.19 ERA in four games, two starts, this season against Oakland.

Stitch n Kitsch – April 14th, Kitchener

DKC Knitter's Frolic – April 28th, Black Lamb Booth, Toronto
Yesterday I had a lovely day trip up to Kitchener, Waterloo and Guelph – checked out shops, had lunch, and wandered around the Clay and Glass Gallery. That was definitely the highlight of the day as they have an Ann Roberts Retrospective and exhibition on right now. They have a LOT of her incredible work, displayed wonderfully. But better yet this weekend she is there doing handsculpting demos. It was lovely to watch her hands molding clay into the shape of a bull. She was depicting the story of Europa and the Bull, a story she has depicted a few times in the past. She had with her a couple of her 'rejects': these beautiful sculptures sitting only as examples of her path, where she wants the work to finish. I couldn't help but mutter 'stunning rejects!'.
Here are a few shots of Ann working and of her work currently on display:
It's a nice morning – cool but sunny. I made blackberry sweet cream crepes and bacon. I woke up early and went to the potter's guild to unload my bisqueware and organize the insane amount of buttons that now need to be sanded, dusted and glazed. A trip to the pottery supply house is in order for some time this week so I can get a banding wheel and new glazes. I have about a million things to do before I go on vacation.
Some spinning is getting done. I have actually been getting through a lot of my fibre stash which feels really great and makes me feel so ready for Maryland Sheep and Wool in a couple of months. I have made a pact with myself that I am not to buy any yarn. It needs to be all about fibre, felting supplies and weird stuff. I have way too much yarn. So much yarn that it makes me vision my own mortality and how much of it will be used before those dark days are upon me.
And this brings me to day 1 of OOD, or Object of the Day rather…
For those who know me really well, it is already known that I am an avid dollhead collector. This is not the same as a doll collector. I really am only interested in the head. I either use the other body parts in an artwork, or end up donating them back to goodwill with the hope that someone could love a headless doll. I also thrift for them, seek them out in antiques stores and obsess over them online from places like Germany, which are by far my favourite. This particular doll was picked up somewhere in an antique store in Ontario (I want to say in the KW area) in a big white house that was really cold. I got it with one other dollhead for about 10 bucks and when I brought it to the counter, the lady lovingly said 'Aww….do you restore these? How nice. My husband wanted me to just throw these in the trash but I thought someone might want them'. So, I left her with the idea that I would restore this doll into something of Victorian beauty. But actually, no – it stays as it is and joins the happy menagerie. There is just something about dollheads that really appeals to me. They aren't even funny to me…but they have some kind of dark..class. It's weird but I see them as though they should be in design magazines. I guess this is why I am not an interior designer and why my house is kind of like a scary art circus maybe.
I have been a lazy blogger – but not a lazy maker. My day job has been really demanding of late and I have been preparing for shows which will bombard my life in April.
I have been working away on felting pods, dyeing yarn, spinning, potting – new bowls and buttons and all sorts on their way. I am also thankfully preparing for a much needed vacation in a couple weeks.
I recently decided I would join the Neilson Park Creative Centre and the Etobicoke Spinning and Weaving Guild so that is a nice thing to be excited about and have some more involvement in. I hesitated for a long time to join a guild because I am not a good rule follower when it comes to my work and I have been in a lot of guilds and groups where your work can get sort of …bossed around, or stifled by those around you. However, the folks I have met so far are wonderful. I am just going to try not to dedicate myself too much to responsibilities on a board type situation. I do enough of that already and I am feeling like in the next few years I need to take a hiatus from those sorts of things to allow myself more time for research and development on my craft and to discover new things and organize what will work for me on a longer term basis.
I should also mention the shows that I have coming up soonish!
April 14th – Stitch n Kitsch
April 21st – PENDING – Waiting to hear if I made the cut to get into the Made by Hand Show. I know there were about 60 extra vendors than the venue had room for so we shall see.
April 28th – Downtown Knit Collective – Knitter's Frolic – I will be in The Black Lamb's booth with all my goodies.
I am also happy to announce that I solved an issue I was having with a few dyes that I recently purchased. I had a couple of customers advise me that their yarn was bleeding a bit of colour when they washed it. Of course for a yarn dyer, this is a BIG deal so I immediately started researching the issue and found that for a few dyes I use there have been some recipe changes and they need to be mordanted a little differently. So, I have worked out the kink and tested it and now all will be well. Thank you to my customers who let me know about this problem. Things like this cannot be fixed if they are not identified.
And, I have managed to finish the Dark Birdcage hat for a recent show that I entered.
I have done a lot of photography today, and I am planning on updating this blog more and doing sort of an 'object a day' thing where I may not have anything to say..but I will try to post pictures frequently of things that inspire me, that I covet or make. I think this will be a good way for me to get myself back into blogging. It's good 'me time'.
It's hard to believe that Rhinebeck and Maryland vacations have come and gone and once again I am up to my ears in show preparation and loads to do but I am doing it with as much love and passion as I can and trying to just breathe when it comes to real world work stuff and stress. I have come to a bunch of big decisions as it relates to my future, further education and career moves – it's too early to talk about now but I am already feeling warmer inside thinking about big changes.
Rhinebeck was fantastic – I got some great fleece, lovely yarns and some sweet gnomes from http://www.goinggnome.com/ who are probably my very favourite gnome felters. I myself have been working on loads of wet felting and I am planning on expanding my own wet felting knowledge and figuring out more techniques so that I can invent my own and add to my educational repertoire a bit. I also got to spend a bit of time in Catskill, NY and did some great antiquing – my biggest find were some amazing old doll mods.
Maryland was quite relaxing and filled with loads of fun. I got to see some a great Shonen Knife performance at The Ottobar. Also, The Degenerettes and The Quarantines were awesome.
I was totally stoked at just how energized the performances were. Shonen Knife are such a fun group – they really love what they do and it shows so much, and they just put on a really fun, high energy and happy show.
I got to have a nice day of relaxing going hiking at Susquehanna state park, one of my favourite places, and that was really great. It was a lovely fall day and it was gorgeous. I came across a lot of really lovely mushrooms, some big spiders and even a little red salamander.
Then we went to an amazing haunted house at Eastern State Penitentiary and it was freaky, but fun. It was cool because we got to see the cell corridors, which were creepy and learned a bit about just how terrible prison life was back then when things were really a lot more about punishment and penitence and not at all about trying to make people heal and become better. There was Al Capone's cell and the a weird story about Pep the dog who did a life sentence for killing the governor's wife's cat.
We also did some antiquing in Ellicot city and in different parts of Philadelphia, went to PA dutch country and kitchen kettle village. We ate too much good food and hung out with friends. It was overall a great time. I have learned that shopping at Wegman's dangerous. I can never leave there without spending a fortune. Also this time I found awesome baby cake making machines and picked up one for making mini donuts and one for making whoopie pies. The website of the people that make these, and have fun recipes is http://thebabycakesshop.com/ but I have been winging it and just making up my own.
The one in front is a carrot cake with raisins, with a cream cheese icing, rolled in crushed chocolate covered almonds. The one in back is a devil's food cake with a fudge icing rolled in ground candy cane Hershey kisses and ground candy canes. They were awesome.
And, the boy brought me flowers. This has been a nice weekend.
I am between travels as I write this – just returned from NY for Rhinebeck! (NY Sheep and Wool for you non-fuzzies) and heading on out to Maryland next week. But tomorrow is the Woodstock Fleece Festival so ya'll should come on out and see me. I will be in The Black Lamb booth with Laurie selling many pretties.
I can't believe I haven't blogged about the new love of my life, well, actually my husband's life (as he was kind of a birthday present) – oh yes! Meet Toasty!!!
He is almost 12 weeks old and has finally reached 1 pound. He is a deliciously sweet puppy with a great attitude, and is unbelievably cute. He started puppy classes last week and handled being in class with all bigger dogs like a champ. I could not be happier that we got him. He's awesome.
He is always climbing on Lulu and she has been very motherly and sweet about the whole ordeal. She loves him to bits.
Rhinebeck was a blast – I got some lovely fleeces, yarn and only a wee bit of fiber. It was great fun on Sunday though going antiquing in Catskill, NY and then driving through Albany. There are a lot of great flea markets and galleries and I got a lot of great stuff…he's a peek – sorry for the bad photo.
I got a lot of great anthropomorphic ceramics, a box of dental molds, incredible doll molds from a pre-50s NY factory, fat quarters, little art pieces – great stuff.
Albany has this weird half-egg shaped building, among a ton of lovely, historic buildings.
Cutest goat at Rhinebeck:
Not much else happening, but look at these lovely mushrooms from my backyard:
The shop has been updated with a massive amount of new yarns!
First off, my new line of worsted weight merino hand dyed yarn – Wink Wink Worsted. You can get it HERE. And a sneak peek:
And, the Fall 2011 colours of Bootsie sock yarn are posted! You can pick them up HERE! And a sneak peek:
Plus, Candy Sprinkles has been re-stocked! Right HERE!
And, there are new shades of Foot Fetish – Merino/Cashmere/Nylon fingering weight! Right HERE!
Summer is really winding down quickly here in Ontario. It has been really chilly but I am not bothered – it's making me want to update my Fall wardrobe and wear scarves and go to evening outdoor events where you can bundle up with hot cider and listen to live music – that sort of thing. Nesty.
I think sometimes when I am trying to give a name to my blog posts that I get sort of frazzled ..trying to figure out how to give a title about everything I am going to write about so it ends up looking like 'Random Art Show, Some Food Stuff, Dog News, etc' so from now on I am going to raise the stifling curse on myself and give random one-liner names of words in my head at the time. Why is it important anyhow?
So, the Kitchener-Waterloo knitter's fair was a great success. My wares looked lovely in the generous booth space and there were many patrons, and overall nice people. I got to meet some people I know from Ravelry, in person and with the boys there to help me, it was not overwhelming at all. I really started preparations for the show ahead of time so I set myself up for success on the big day. Here are some shots of my booth!
The overall booth
Hand Dyed Yarn Wall
Candy Sprinkles Yarn and Fiber Goodies
Octopi Yarn Bowls, Test tubes of Beads, Bamboo Lace
Stitch Markers, More Bamboo Lace, Buttons
So, I think I am all finished for canning season this year, except husband is going to try to pickle some insanely hot Thai green chilies that we used 4 ounces of in our salsa. The salsa turned out completely yummy. So, for this year I did huge loads of salsa, canned whole tomatoes, canned chopped tomatoes, plum butter, strawberry jam, candy apple jelly, dill pickles, and rhubarb marmalade. Today is farmer's market day though so one can never be sure if something else might catch my eye. I am thinking something apple, but not apple sauce would be nice.
Mat and I have started podcasting again, after over a year of not doing so. So, for Muststashyo listeners, you can download the new episode here: http://www.muststashyo.com/ We are working away on the next one too and it will be recorded and uploaded on Sunday probably.
I also have a massive yarn update on it's way – a new link called 'Wink Wink' of hand dyed worsted yarns perfect for hat and cowl projects. And, I have the new Fall 2011 Bootsie colours as well as some new merino/cashmere/nylon sock yarn. Here's a peek:
Bootsie sock yarn
Wink Wink Worsted
Lastnight was a lot of fun too – I went to the Brampton Indie Artfest at The Rose Theatre and we saw The House Plants, The Shuffle Demons, some great art installations, heard some poetry slamming, ate organic cotton candy, and saw a lot of smoking hipsters. The best part of the night would have to be The Shuffle Demons though – they sounded great and reminded me of when I was a kid and used to hear them playing their music from across the street. There was a little old lady who lived across the street from me as a kid and the least sax player/singer of the band was married to her daughter.
I am heading back for a second night tonight to see Lily Frost and some other acts. Anyhow, the work day beckons and I should listen.
PS! Worldwide Spin in Public Day is this weekend – so find an event near you! http://www.wwsipday.com/
It has been a busy week and I am working long days of the day job and long evenings of show preparation for Kitchener Waterloo's Knitter's Fair.
Much yarn has been dyed and photos need to be taken. I did up a little indigo dye pot yesterday for some indigo tie dyed in fingering and worsted weights and I really love how it turned out.
On the weekend I made a little piece of wall art – from miniature furniture for doll houses..I was thinking it was quite Alice in Wonderland feeling and imagined a whole wall made of this…would be fun!
We got to dogsit our neighbour's lovely St. Bernard. Her name is Kelowna and she is a giant ball of love.
I got this amazing phang spindle from my girlfriend Janet – it is entirely made by hand from a local Wax Myrtle tree – how amazing is she?
Ok, billions of things to do…so I must say adieu! Dog kiss!

Hello my lovelies,
Concealer for me, is something that I don't very often buy. I find a concealer I like and stick to it, although my concealer collection is fairly extensive I stick to the same two or three products. I feel like I have been stuck in a rut recently and the concealers that I have loved in the past just weren't working for me anymore. Under my eyes were the biggest problem, it just looked awful every line under my eyes was highlighted and the products were just clinging to everything. It's fair to say it wasn't a pretty sight! I just knew I had to try something new..
In walks the Jouer High Coverage Liquid Concealer. Now, I will be honest I have no idea how this ended up in my collection because I didn't purchase it but I saw it staring at me, unopened, and with the rut I was in I decided to give it a go. Jouer is a brand that has been popular over the last year or two when it comes to concealer, foundation and highlighters so I was pretty interested in what the hype was all about considering I'd never tried anything from the brand before.
So, the packaging.. is pretty damn lovely. Simple yet blooming beautiful. There is something about frosted packaging that just really does it for me I just think it adds that sense of quality to the product. A gold top is always great and the more I look into the brand it fits perfectly into their image. For a concealer, it's quite chubby. I know that sounds weird but most concealers are fairly slender but this has some substance.
With a chubby tube, comes a fairly large doe foot applicator. To be honest when I saw the size it could be mistaken for a foundation wand as it carries a lot of product on it. It's something to consider because if you only use a small amount of concealer you would really have to wipe a lot of product off. For me, I don't have this issue and the applicator works really well. I do sometimes go a little overboard on product but I can always blend it out.
So the product itself. As the name suggests its a high coverage concealer. Serious heavy duty stuff in my eyes. It's a fairly thick consistency in comparison to most concealers but that's the price to pay if you require a high coverage base. I find this is great for covering spots, redness etc. but it doesn't magically make them disappear – however the redness is gone which is sometimes the part you want to conceal anyway. I was worried with this being such a heavy duty concealer that this wouldn't work under my eyes – but how I was wrong.
This concealer looks beautiful under the eyes and I never have an issue with it looking cakey or it going into fine lines. It's amazing and to be honest it has completely changed my outlook on concealers. I always worried about putting heavy coverage concealers under my eyes but this is just a game changer. You just don't need to be afraid with this concealer.
The wear of this is also lovely and keeps oil at bay throughout the day. It works with all my powders and to be honest my skin looks seamless when I wear this. I have noticed such a difference when I use this and to be honest I think I have fallen in love. For me, this a lot better than Tarte's Shape Tape and Collection Lasting Perfection which are cult favourites in the beauty world.
What I also love about this, is the shade range. There are 25 different shades which by my standards is pretty impressive for a brand. I have the shade custard which is a perfect match for me, even though I have no idea how this came into my collection it magically appeared in a shade that matches me!
For me, this has really changed my concealer game and I cannot stop using it, I am obsessed. It just really works for me. This retails for £16.75 which personally, isn't too bad for a concealer it's not going to break the bank and for a reliable concealer it's well worth the money in my opinion! This has really made me want to try the foundation now so thoughts on that would be great! I just don't want to be disappointed as the concealer works so well for me.
If you would like to find out more information on the concealer or try it out for yourself see here
Let me know if you have tried this concealer before and what your thoughts are. What is your favourite concealer to use?

So, the 'ugly tourists', (as discussed earlier) not satisfied with the mess they have already created across the earth, are reaching out their ugly impertinence of exploring (or exploitation!) nature far to the virgin Antarctica. And it is becoming a popular destination for tourists who want to experience its unspoiled beauty! — threatening its ecology and its tranquility. Annie Kelly reports these concerns.
Tourism is growing exponentially there. It was until 1987, fewer than 1,000 people annually traveled to the continent — there were 6,500 in 1992/93, and double that number in 2002/3. But, this year, more than 28,000 people are expected to come within inches of the kind of wildlife and landscapes that are normally seen only on film. Are they endangered by our thirsty minds and eyes, and our environmental irresponsibility? Following the success of the March of the Penguins film, the trend is set to continue with "penguin fever" running high. Now whom will these tourists blame?! ownself or the Media…?

Jennifer Lawrence apparently isn't a Miley Cyrus fan, if you go by her recent comments.
As previously reported by The Inquisitr, the Jennifer Lawrence nude photo shoot went well, although the related interview started awkwardly with the actress saying, "Your "tape recorder is pointed at my vagina.'"
So, yeah, Ms. Lawrence has no problem stating what she thinks. And when she was asked about how performers like Miley Cyrus are sexualizing young women in general, she was pretty blunt:
"It is a part of the entertainment industry that sells. Sex sells, and for some disgusting reason young sex sells even more. For some people, that's how they feel best, that's how they feel sexy."
(This is where you insert Jennifer Lawrence's derp face.)
Her mental lawsuit alert buzzer must have being going off because she stopped short of dissing Miley specifically. But the Miley Cyrus nudity backlash has been garnering comments from all sorts of female stars.
For example, Melissa Joan Hart rejected a $1 million Playboy offer and says Miley Cyrus is putting too much out there. Avril Lavigne said nude photos of her are unlikely since she prefers her own fashion and doesn't want to use sex to further her career. Sinead O'Connor tried warning Miley Cyrus that the music industry was "prostituting" her for money, but the resulting Twitter cat fight led to threats of lawsuits.
Even pop star Katy Perry is saying these nude antics are making selling sex just plain nasty:
"I'm not talking about anyone in particular. I'm talking about all of them. I mean, it's like everybody's so naked. It's like put it away. We know you've got it. I got it too…. I'm just saying sometimes it's nice to play that card but also it's nice to play other cards. And I know I have that sexy card in my deck but I don't always have to use that card."
Pretty much the only famous person defending Miley Cyrus' nude crusade is Sky Ferreira. Although, she's probably a little defensive herself because of all the controversy over her nude album cover.
So, for Jennifer Lawrence, nudity isn't an option and she says that when she stars in movies appealing to younger girls, she makes "conscious decisions" to set a good example:
"Growing up I didn't have a female hero the way that Katniss is and I think she's a wonderful role model for young girls. I'm happy that they have a character like that. I don't think you make a decision to be a role model. I didn't set out to be one at all. It's something that just happens when you're in the spotlight you just have to look at what you want the younger generation to hear. I think Katniss is a very good role model, she's strong and not afraid to stand up for what's right."
So, yeah, no twerking or lighting up a weed pipe on stage like Miley, who happened to be at the same event as Jennifer. Although that doesn't stop Cyrus from claiming she's a feminist…
Do you agree with Jennifer Lawrence that Miley Cyrus' nude romps are "disgusting"?

The recent restoration of capitalism in the United States, and elsewhere, has renewed interest in a century-old theoretical conflict about the analysis of poverty in a capitalist system. One of the defining characteristics of the difference between institutional economics and neoclassicism is the treatment of the lower income classes and charitable institutions. The modern neoclassical paradigm provides a very narrow economic analysis of poverty. Institutional economics has a more comprehensive and coherent analysis of poverty within capitalism. Both of these theoretical views can be traced to their intellectual origins.
In the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries, leading theorists from the emerging schools of economic thought attempted to analyze poverty and charitable institutions in the capitalism of that era. In fact, Alfred Marshall, the leading neoclassical thinker, claimed the ultimate goal of the economics profession was to create the tools and find the policies to solve the problem of human poverty. He referred to the poor as the Residuum: those left out of the market system. Marshall used analytical metaphors from biology to explain the development of "altruistic institutions" in a capitalist society. His proposed solutions to the problems of the lower economic classes ranged from greater economic growth through freer markets to the emulation of the German paternalistic policy approach.
Institutional economics, in the work of Thorstein Veblen and others, approached poverty and charitable institutions from a very different perspective. Veblen's use of biological metaphors in economic analysis was more sensitive to their application in economic systems. As a result, his analysis of poverty was a more integral part of his overall theory of capitalism. His keen analysis of charitable institutions within capitalism identified them as a function of the leisure class.
This paper will review the early conceptualization of poverty and charity in neoclassical and institutional literature. The paper will provide a historical analysis of how the early differences in approach led to the divergent treatment of poverty and charity in current institutionalism and neoclassical economics.
Marshall and Poverty
If one read only the first few pages of Marshall's Principles of Economics, it would appear that the primary concern of economics was the reduction or elimination of poverty. Marshall reflected at the impoverished quality of life for the poor:
But the conditions which surround extreme poverty, especially in densely crowded places, tend to deaden the higher faculties. Those who have been called the Residuum . . . have little opportunity for friendship; they know nothing of the decencies and the quiet, and very little even of the unity of family life; and religion often fails to reach them. No doubt their physical, mental and moral ill-health is partly due to other causes then poverty: but this is the chief cause [Marshall 1961, 2].
Marshall focused his goals for the field of economics at the issue of the elimination of poverty. Was it necessary for there to be a lower income class in a capitalist economy? Did the market system require a large group of people "doomed" to hard work, drudgery, and poverty in order for others to be wealthy? Marshall pondered whether or not the wealthy, cultured, upper-class existence depended on market-generated economic inequality. He saw economics as the science that could answer these questions, and he hoped that from the advance of economic science would come the end of poverty:
The hope that poverty and ignorance may gradually be extinguished, derives indeed much support from the steady progress of the working classes during the nineteenth century [Marshall 1961, 3].
Marshall asserted that the answer to this issue was, at least in part, within the province of economics. In fact, this gave economists "their chief and their higher interest" [1961, 3]. He speculated why with this as the ultimate goal of economics (the elimination of poverty) more of the ablest minds had not been...

Quaid injury blow for Limerick hurlers
LIMERICK goalkeeper Nickey Quaid will miss this weekend's Allianz Hurling League Division 1B game against Carlow in the Gaelic Grounds and is now also a doubt for the game against Dublin in Croke Park on March 16.
Quaid injured his ankle in training on the Tuesday before Limerick's win over Antrim and is still struggling to shake off the injury.
"He went for an MRI scan last week," said Limerick manager John Allen, "but it's still unclear how long he'll be out for. He'll definitely miss the game this weekend and he could be out for the Dublin game as well. It's tough on Nickey and at this time of the year you could miss nearly the entire league if you're only out for a couple of weeks.
"It's a chance for Aaron Murphy and he's a fine young keeper. Sub goalkeepers rarely get a look in so this is a chance for him.
"We've also brought Barry Hennessy from Kilmallock in to the panel and Tommy Quaid can play in goals too."
Limerick should have too much strength for Carlow on Sunday although Allen isn't taking the challenge lightly.
"I saw highlights of their game against Wexford on TG4 and they were very impressive. They were in contention right up until the end and they supported each other very well.
"We felt we trained very well in the run up to the Antrim game but we gave a bad performance. We've trained well since that and we'll be looking for an improvement."
And Allen is delighted that the hurling game is on first in the Gaelic Grounds. "12.45 is early for a game but it's definitely better to be playing before the footballers."

Dead Kennedys @ Marquee Theatre | Saturday, September 22, 2012
For those not fully versed in the ins and outs of punk rock history, allow me to bring you up to speed: Officially, the iconic punk band known as Dead Kennedys perished back in 1986 due to in-fighting and the drama surrounding the controversial Frankenchrist obscenity trial.
I state this fact because the abomination that crept onstage at Marquee Theatre last night was not, and will never be, the true Dead Kennedys. Period. Its members may have looked and sounded like East Bay Ray, Klaus Fluoride, and DH Peligro, but without original vocalist Jello Biafra in the mix, it ain't the same band who personified early '80s punk and influenced thousands of punkers and hardcore kids worldwide.
See also: Dead Kennedys Are Coming to Tempe (Sans Jello) See also: Concert Review -- Jello Biafra at the Clubhouse Music Venue See also: DK Kennedys -- The same old punks, minus Jello Biafra, plus Brandon Cruz
You can call them the DK Kennedys (the moniker used by the band after their revival in the early Aughts) or the "world's greediest karaoke band" (a title coined by Biafra), but three-quarters of the original lineup and some dummy they've recruited to sing, which is currently Ron "Skip" Greer of The Winona Ryders fame, does not the Dead Kennedys make.
And believe me, Greer seems quite the fool. Like the other would-be Biafras that East Bay and company have sewn onto the corpse of DK over the last decade (including weirdo musician Jeff Penalty and former child star Brandon Cruz), the spasmodic singer thrashed about the stage, becoming a hyperactive, bug-eyed tornado who attempted to one-up Jello's epic stage antics during the band's heyday, but was nowhere near as captivating.
Heck, an actual bowl of Jell-O would've been more enthralling than Greer's weak-ass performance. His vocals were both undermixed (and were hard to hear and times) while his clowning was over done. Greer's timing was also way off, the between song blatherings were pathetic and eye-roll-inducing, and his annoying high-pitched caterwaulings often matched Wall of Voodoo vocalist Stan Ridgway in terms of annoyance.
This was not the wild vibrato-like voice that I first listened to in high school and spoke of social injustice, the indignity of conformity, or the perils of hypocrisy and backbiting.
It was neutered as the bands weak attempts at political discourse during the show -- including a loud tirade from Peligro where he mistakenly confused Arizona's racially motivated SB 1070 with California's homophobic Proposition 8 (um, guess he forgot which state they were playing in) -- and recapturing the defiant spirit of their early years.
To wit: At the conclusion of the 17-song concert, Fluoride pulled his trademark move of unstrapping his bass and letting it crash to the stage. In the '80s, it seemed a defiant act befitting the Dead Kennedys angry nature. Last night, it seemed like an embarrassing pathetic curtain call to their days of relevance.
And it turns out I'm not the only one who feels ashamed for DK. In a recent interview, the always outspoken Biafra summed his feelings about his former bandmates:
I'm still as proud as I've ever been of Dead Kennedys' music and our legacy and all the cool shit we did together, but I'm just embarrassed to know those guys now. People are asking me to do reunion shows, but I have a list of reasons a mile long why I don't want to do that. I'm not a big fan of reunions, but when I saw The Stooges, it was not lost on me how much it would mean to people to see the real Dead Kennedys lineup back together, but for that, everybody has to be willing to get along and treat the other people with respect, and they have no intention of doing that.
For those who missed the show, do yourself a favor and look up the old Rhino Records VHS tape of DK performing at San Francisco's old Mabuhay Gardens in 1984 for a truly epic performance by the band in their primes. Or you can just watch it on YouTube.

Last Night: Dead Kennedys @ Marquee Theatre Personal Bias: My best friend for my teens and twenties, Carlton Rahmani, lent me Frankenchrist and In God We Trust, Inc. on cassette in 1992 and I haven't stopped listening since. The Crowd: Old punks, young crusties, anyone who didn't go to either Agent Orange or the second night of Within These Walls. Overheard: "So outta nowhere, Danzig shoves him and this big guy just fucking clocks him. BOOM! It was hilarious." Songs I Wanted to Hear: "Halloween," "Your Emotions," "This Could Be Anywhere," and "Terminal Preppie." Random Notebook Dump: Skip is as much Jello Biafra as I am Lester Bangs. The Pit Report: Photographer and fellow music blogger Melissa Fossum says that the moshing offerings taking place during the show were fairly weak. One More Thing: Another photog shooting the concert stated he'd heard a rumor that Jello joined the band onstage at one of their California shows earlier this week, which is about as likely as Biafra endorsing Mitt Romney for president.

Pen Hadow's expedition to trek across the sea ice to the North Pole is now fighting for survival on half rations because their resupply plane had to turn back on Monday due to bad weather. One member of the team, the photographer Martin Hartley, has frostbite in his left big toe and all three are struggling to deal with temperatures of -40C.
The Catlin Arctic Survey mission aims to record scientific data about the state of the ice and sea below but the team have made slow progress because the pan of ice they are trekking across is moving in the opposite direction to the one they want to go in. Hartley calls it "a moving escalator of ice".
"We've just heard we're not going to get a re-supply today," Hartley said yesterday. "I had hoped we might celebrate my birthday with fresh supplies but right now there's no prospect of a party."
"The fact that a re-supply plane came so close but was unable to reach us is dispiriting", Hadow, the expedition leader, told colleagues at the CAS Operations Headquarters in London. "We're hungry, the cold is relentless, our sleeping bags are full of ice and, because we're not moving, the colder we get. Waiting is almost the worst part of an expedition as we're in the lap of the weather gods. This is basic survival".
The downbeat mood contrasts starkly with the optimism Hadow had expressed on 13 March when it looked like a re-supply was imminent. At roughly 500 miles from the North Pole he describes in this clip how they were directed by satellite to a suitable location for the plane to land on.
That attempt to reach the team failed, and in Hartley's audio diary on Monday the punishing conditions are obvious.
"My sleeping bag is full of ice and I'm not joking when I say that. It is full of ice - inside and out. My breath is frozen on the walls of the tent. Everything I touch is frozen solid...It is difficult to eat, the food we have is frozen into nothing short of the same texture as roofing tiles.
A fresh attempt to re-supply the team is being launched today.

The Law of Universal Gravitation
«I got a very strange world,» said Roroku.
«I hope it is strange in a pleasant way,» I replied.
«This one is strange in an it-doesn't-matter way,» she told me. «Most worlds have gravity, you know.»
«Quel Quen listed "missing gravity" as one of the reasons why a world might be useless. Mostly worlds without gravity are just formless and fruitless clouds of gas.»
«Kyspert, it turns out, does not have gravity.»
«Kyspert, is all over floating islands. But I thought things fell down if you dropped them — down being "towards the Boiling Ocean"?» I asked.
«There are three celestial bodies on the outside top of the world which exert a strong repulsive force. Objects do not "fall down", they are pushed away from Up. I am brilliant with analysis spells! I can see how the direction that things fall varies slightly from place to place, as the distances and angles to the repulsors changes! They fall a touch more slowly near the Boiling Ocean, which is to say, far from the repulsors! If one ascends to the top of the heavens, the repulsive forces are very strong, and clearly push at one in three directions. It is not comfortable, especially when one has used makeshift sorceries to fly and live in a vacuum.»
«That's quite odd,» I said. «I've only been on worlds with normal gravity.» (Later, of course, Quel Quen told me of the gravitic differences between Basic Balls like Mhel, where things are on the outside of the ball-shaped world, and fall towards the center of the ball, and Typical Toroids like Hove, where things are on the hollow inside of the torus, and fall towards the torus walls. There are choices far weirder than Kysp, too.)
«And the levity pods that hold things up, convert some of the repulsive pressure of the repulsors into heat or twinkly light. I am going to train generations of kysp scientists until they can figure out how that works,» said Roroku.
«You've run into the limits of your analysis magic?» I asked, with a polite degree of dominance contesting and challenge.
«The limits of my patience! I would rather enjoy my new world than be forever poking at the fine points.» Which is to say "yes".Support this project!
