abbott having an irrational thought bubble?
early 2000's gov was told no f-35b's on 2 x LHD, when it was asked about, because the ramp was kept. and why don't we get some B's then? leaving the ramp on didn't lose a front spot because of fire fighting requirements and it would need redesign to take it off. cheaper to leave on. The only negative I've heard is swirling winds from the ramp.
If we go anywhere dangerous, it will be under a USA coalition umbrella. I was told the same applies to the french flat top and it needs coalition support. So we would need significant assets to go anywhere by ourselves.
ADF told our Gov they need another flat top, support ships and assets for fixed wing (and a lot more money) As you would know from your time in the RAN, It really is a different ball game.

Navy keeps very quiet while it waits for the last laugh
04 Aug 2007 SMH
"WHEN Brendan Nelson announced last month a $3 billion order for two giant amphibious landing ships, it was widely seen as a victory for the "expeditionary force" school of strategy, emphasising overseas punch for the Australian Army....
...The navy might also have the last laugh. The new ships are actually its path back to acquiring the capability it lost with the retirement of the carrier HMAS Melbourne in 1982: its own fixed-wing strike aircraft operating off its own carriers.
The two ships, of the Juan Carlos I design for the Spanish Navy, will have a "ski-jump" ramp for vertical and short take-off and landing jets, and be able to carry at least six such aircraft.
The aircraft could be the Harrier jump-jet strike fighter long in service with the British Navy, the US Marine Corps and the Spanish Navy, or the projected V/STOL variant of the F-35 Joint Strike Fighter in which Australia has invested as the next generation supersonic, stealth mainstay of the air force.
The Spanish shipyard Navantia, which will build the two navy ships with the Melbourne-based group Tenix, has made much of this capability, and Canberra defence insiders say the navy was well aware of this when the Government was persuaded to opt for the ships over the smaller French rival.
"There's a lot of chuckling behind the sleeves," said Derek Woolner, an expert on defence technology at the Australian National University's Strategic and Defence Studies Centre. "The joke around is Navy's being very, very careful. They've got almost total discipline: no one in Navy is saying anything about Harriers."
Woolner expects the subject to come up once the air force starts getting its new F-35 aircraft.
"They'll say how about buying some V/STOL versions, they'll be really cheap because we can get the maintenance and support done out of the RAAF fleet, they wouldn't be like a little orphan fleet, we'd only need a few, and gee, it would add so much to our power projection.
"People are fully aware of it, it's just that the politics of the thing are such that Navy is shutting up," Woolner said....

CARRIER-BORNE CLOSE AIR SUPPORT Historical and Contemporary perspectives
CMDR David Hobbs MBE, RN (Rtd) The NAVY Vol 72 No 4 Special Oct-Dec 2010
"...Historically, air forces have shown themselves to be the least joint of armed forces, the least adaptive to other people's ideas and formed on the unsubstantiated political assumption that all future wars would be fought by them, making navies and armies obsolete. Experience shows the need for successful integration of 'air' into naval and military operations and questions the need for a third service to support the other two without fully comprehending their needs. The transfer of battlefield support helicopters from the RAAF to the Army Air Corps was a wise move that supports this view. The choice of future aircraft put forward by the RAAF is questionable and demonstrably follows an independent line. The LHDs are being built to a Spanish design with a ski-jump and their Spanish sister-ships are intended to operate the F-35B, STOVL, version of the Joint Strike Fighter (JSF), itself designed to meet a US Marine Corps requirement to operate as CAS aircraft from US Navy LHDs. The RAAF wants 'up to' 100 JSF; to an outsider this offers a straightforward solution since the Australian Defence Force is buying the big deck ships and the CAS aircraft to operate from them. This is not the case since the RAAF insists on procuring the F-35A version of the JSF, designed for the US Air Force and incapable of operation from a carrier or providing support for a distant expeditionary operation. It is not clear why the Australian Government is considering buying an aircraft with such limited potential when it could get so much more for its money by taking a wider view. Air Force politicians will point out that airborne tankers and transport aircraft could relocate maintenance personnel, spare parts and ammunition to a 'friendly' air base near the scene of the action. As with the Hunters in Kuwait, however, this would buy up much of the tanker/transport force and prevent it from carrying out other tasks which would no doubt be given lower priority; an inward-looking RAAF view rather than working with others to achieve the best result in the national interest.
There are major issues with the cost of the JSF programme and the high cost of individual aircraft and the unknown cost of their support may deter many nations, including Australia, from buying it in the numbers they originally intended or at all. This is another area that has not yet been debated and deserves to be. The phenomenon of expensive front line aircraft is not new...."

F-35Bs Crawl, Walk, Run to Transformation
27 Jun 2014 Marc V. Schanz
"The F-35B strike fighter is a "transformational" capability, on par with how the MV-22 tiltrotor platform revolutionized expeditionary operations, Lt. Gen. Kenneth Glueck, head of Marine Corps Combat Development Command, told reporters on Thursday. But some of its capabilities will take years to perfect, he said. "I would say we are in the crawl stage on that," said Glueck when asked about the maturity of data links and systems to disseminate the jet's electronics and command and control capabilities. The F-35B is "transformational because of what it does," he said. "It is a battlefield integrator," and when its systems mature, it will be able to deliver information about the overall picture of a conflict down to marines and troops on the ground [and RAN ships/LHDs], he said. The F-35B will eventually replace three aircraft across the Marine Corps: the F/A-18, EA-6B, and AV-8B, said Glueck. "It will be a disruptive technology in the beginning," he said. "It's going to take a while to realize what we need on the ground to take full advantage of all the capabilities," he added."

Johnston raises possibility of acquiring F-35Bs
19 May 2014 australianaviation.com.au
"Defence Minister Senator David Johnston has again raised the possibility of Australia acquiring a number of Lockheed Martin F-35B short take off & vertical landing (STOVL) versions of the Joint Strike Fighter for operation from the RAN's new Canberra class LHD vessels.
Speaking to The Weekend West on May 17, Senator Johnston said the acquisition of the F-35B was "an option which has been considered from day one." His comments echo those he made to an ASPI dinner in October 2012 where he described the LHDs as "…STOVL capable."
Defence officials have consistently tried to pour cold water on the possibility of Australia buying F-35Bs over the years, despite its commonality with the conventional takeoff F-35A version of which the RAAF is acquiring 72 examples.
The Canberra class LHDs are being built optimised for amphibious operations using water craft and helicopters, and do not have sufficient fuel and weapons bunkerage to operate F-35Bs without a considerable upgrade in the RAN's support ship fleet. Further, & while the possibility of cross-decking with F-35Bs of the USMC, the UK and other partner nations exists and will likely be encouraged, the LHDs do not have the thermion heat-resistant deck coating required to accommodate the F-35B's exhaust for extended operations...."

White Paper to consider F-35Bs for LHDs – report
23 May 2014 australianaviation.com.au
"Prime Minister Tony Abbott has instructed the authors of the new Defence White Paper currently in preparation to consider the acquisition of the STOVL F-35B variant of the F-35 Joint Strike Fighter to operate from the Navy's forthcoming LHD amphibious ships. "It is understood Mr Abbott has instructed planners working on his defence white paper to examine the possibility of putting a squadron of 12 of the short takeoff and vertical landing version of the JSFs — the F-35B — on to the ships," a report in The Australian newspaper on Friday says.
A spokesperson for the Prime Minister contacted by the newspaper did not confirm or deny the suggestion the F-35B would be considered as part of the White Paper process, only noting that the White Paper's Force Structure Review would: "examine a range of capabilities & will provide the government with options to ensure Australia maintains a sustainable, versatile and highly capable defence force in coming decades".
However, on April 23 when Prime Minister Abbott announced the decision to acquire a further 58 F-35As for the RAAF to take the total buy to 72, he made passing reference to the fact that the F-35 variant slated to be acquired for a final batch of up to 28 jets (to replace the Super Hornet) some time next decade had not yet been determined.
"We are certainly retaining the option to purchase an additional squadron – a further 18 Joint Strike Fighters and we haven't decided precisely what type it might be – that will be something that will be looked at in the context of the coming Defence White Paper," the PM said. While at the time RAAF officials explained to Australian Aviation that the figure of 18 aircraft was a slip of the tongue and should have been 28 jets, but the comment about "what type it might be" went largely unnoticed at the time.
But the question of F-35Bs being acquired for the ADF was subsequently flagged by Defence Minister David Johnston in an interview with The Weekend West on May 17, where he said the acquisition of the F-35B was "an option which has been considered from day one.""

Navantia | Strategic Projection Ship | LHD "Juan Carlos I"
"...AIRCRAFT CARRIER: A temporary platform for carrier-based naval aircraft, acting as a flight deck for strategic projection airborne vectors (Navy's Air Wing), capable of becoming a temporary platform to substitute the aircraft-carrier, "PRINCIPE DE ASTURIAS", when she is not available due to downtime (repairs, modifications, etc.)...
..In a significant qualitative leap, this ship is also designed to operate with the STOVL version of the JSF, the F-35B Lightning II, if the Spanish Navy decides to acquire this exceptional plane. A touchdown point has also been reserved astern of the flight deck that is specially adapted (in dimensions & resistance) for the special needs of the new V-22 Osprey tilt-rotor aircraft.
For the transfer of aircraft between the hanger and the flight deck, the Juan Carlos I has two elevators, each with a capacity of 25 tonnes and sufficient size to be able to carry up to the new F-35B Lightning II, or a helicopter the size of a Chinook....
...The hanger itself, situated further astern, can house up to 12 medium-sized helicopters. In the case of the LHD operating as a temporary aircraft carrier, the vehicles and material would be substituted by between 10 and 12 STOVL planes, as well as the dozen helicopters previously mentioned. In order to provide support for airborne operations, it is estimated that the ship has sufficient fuel, spare parts and arms so that the embarked aircraft could carry out their operations without the ship needing replenishment for up to a maximum of 50 days.
The planned airborne capacity is for her to transport and operate up to 30 aircraft including medium-sized and heavy helicopters in amphibious operation profiles, or between 10 and 12 F-35B planes or AV-8B+, plus a similar number of medium-sized helicopters when acting with an aircraft carrier mission profile at times when the Príncipe de Asturias R-11 is not operational...."

Plan Jericho - Introducing 5th Generation Capability

"...A STOVL F-358 for Air Force?
CAF also revealed that Air Force is currently studying the potential operations of a short take off vertical landing (STOVL) F-35B from the decks of Navy's new Landing Helicopter Dock ships.
The Abbott government is reportedly interested in expanding the LHD role by the addition of combat jets and analysis is now being undertaken to determine what will be required. Air Force has previously (and repeatedly) said that the F-35B was not under consideration and that modelling showed the LHDs could be adequately protected by shore-based F-35As. [THIS NEEDS TO BE DEMONSTRATED and NOT HAND WAVED AWAY - CRABS BEWARE - WEEZwatchin']
"Any idea is worth a look at, because the situation changes, circumstances change. STOVLs have their place, they are a more expensive aeroplane, they have a lot less range and they don't have the weapons capability," he noted.
"It depends on how you see the LHD. If you want to convert it to take STOVL, there are a lot of considerations that you have to take into account and JSF/STOVL by itself isn't a capability. It needs weapons and it needs fuel. [DOH]
"And I think that if you go and look at the changes you have to put in place to operate STOVL off an LHD you will see that it's got its challenges. That's what we'll work through over the next few months is to articulate what those challenges are, what additional cost, if that's the way we decide we want to go."

"...Joint Strike Fighter (JSF) [F-35B/C] pp14-16
Our tried and true F/A-18s, AV-8Bs and EA-6B Prowlers have performed magnificently in combat in Iraq and Afghanistan, providing our Marine riflemen the fires they needed, in every clime and place from sea bases large and small, and expeditionary bases ashore. With the help of Congress, we have kept these aircraft as modern as possible and extracted every ounce of readiness we can from them; however, the high operational tempo has pushed these aircraft to more rapidly approach the end of their service lives. Due to the uncertainty prevalent in today's global security environment, the Nation requires we maintain a capability to respond quickly in contested regions regardless of weather conditions. The F-35 Joint Strike Fighter, as part of the MAGTF, meets the Nation's needs.
The Marine Corps remains committed to the recapitalization of our aging TACAIR fleet through the procurement of the F-35. The JSF brings a new capability to the battalion sized forces that sail with our Marine Expeditionary Units. Today, there are a multitude of high risk regions where a crisis response operation would require large Joint strike packages to soften or blind the threat. These packages would have to include cruise missiles, fighter aircraft, electronic warfare platforms, aircraft which specialize in suppression and destruction of enemy air defenses, and strike aircraft - just for U.S. forces to gain access. Such strike packages require coordination across services and combatant commands and take weeks and months to assemble. This same kind of access can be attained with a single detachment of 4 to 8 F-35s - the same sized detachment which will reside with a Marine Expeditionary Unit. For major contingencies, a surge of F-35Bs to our amphibious carrier decks and forward austere bases enables even greater options and striking power. The F-35 provides a transformational capability to the Marine Corps and the Joint Force. It gives our Nation a day one, full spectrum capability against the most critical and prohibitive threats.
Carriers or austere Forward Operating Bases (FOBs) and Forward Arming and Refueling Points (FARPs) ashore. This places the F-35's transformational capabilities in the hands of the infantry Marine. The Marine rifleman is now supported immediately with close air support, electronic warfare capabilities, and intelligence, surveillance, and reconnaissance support in threat and weather conditions which previously would have denied aviation support. The F-35's ability to develop, process, and display information to the pilot and disseminate it at tactical, operational, and strategic levels is what makes the platform truly unique, "a server in the sky" for the MAGTF. The sensors and communications equipment of our F-35s allow pilots and forward air controllers to see through the clouds to exchange high fidelity pictures in environments we would consider a no go today. Enhancing the C2, strike and intel capabilities of the MAGTF commander, the F-35 transforms the MAGTF into an element capable of penetrating any AOR in the world to set the conditions necessary to enable follow-on forces...."

A well-balanced Air Force
02 Jul 2014 Sergei DeSilva-Ranasinghe ANI Australian Naval Institute
"...Q: In recent times, Air Force integration with the amphibious concepts has been talked about between Army and Navy: Doctrinally, to what extent will the RAAF have a role in this?
Air Marshal Brown: For the RAAF's role in the amphibious force, air control is probably the main priority and strike is the second. Our involvement doesn't get a lot of mention because the real issue that you have to solve is the seams between Army and Navy. For us, one of the air-control tasks is protecting a high value asset: the amphibious ship or naval task force. We will be involved in Airborne Early Warning and Control (AEW&C), and the tankers, fighters and maritime patrol aircraft to try to keep the taskforce screened, so it can go from A to B. And, certainly, at its destination you're looking at co-ordinating close air support or strike and maintaining air control. So, there's no great change [YA THINK] for Air Force regarding our roles and how we fit in, it's just that the vital point that you're protecting is in the sea. Of course that comes with its own challenges regarding force projection and the reliance on tankers, and achieving a persistent presence at a distance for all our assets that are part air control for an amphibious force...."

'Sea control & maritime power projection for Australia: maritime air power & air warfare'
2003 Richard T. Menhinick - University of Wollongong
'The Aircraft Carrier Debate' section on pp.109-122 has an overview of non-replacement for HMAS Melbourne back in the early 1980s. pp. 137 to 142 express the idea of LHDs as 'mobile bare bases'. On page 141:
"...As stated aircraft carriers for Australia could be viewed more properly in the context of mobile bare bases. They would build on the positive attributes of Australia's current fixed bare bases, but overcome the limitations of these bases, by being able to bring air power to the area of operations, should the strategic and tactical situation require it. Evolving aircraft technology permits the possibility of Australia being able to operate an air dominance aircraft from a maritime platform. Noting the seamless force statement of 'Force 2020', the RAAF could operate an air dominance and air strike combat air group from the mobile bare base exactly as it does today from land bases. The RAN does not need to re-create a fixed wing fleet air arm. The operation of air dominance aircraft in what the RAAF does already. Australia should just move the base to sea as necessary. The RAN would operate the ship, steam it to where it is required and maintain it. The RAAF could be responsible for the fixed-wing air group, including maintenance and training.
This approach builds on the UK use of RAF GR7 Harrier aircraft from the 'Invincible' class aircraft carriers off Yugoslavia. In fact between 2002 and 2006 the RN's Sea Harriers will be removed from service. This will result in the three 'Invincible' class aircraft carriers deploying solely with RAF fixed wing aircraft. As already stated the British are moving to provide a two carrier fixed wing air dominance and strike capability to permit expeditionary warfare from 2012. Australia seems not to have studied this aspect of operations. It is time to investigate this option with a view to operating either a common aircraft variant from land and mobile sea bases or even a different variant should that be the preferred and logical outcome.
There would of course be significant challenges. It is some 20 years since the RAN operated fixed wing aviation at sea. It would be a period of 30 to 35 years (2012/17) by the time Project Air 6000 platforms could be commissioned into service. To be effective at sea aircrew would need to be educated in maritime operations. This includes a basic understanding of how ships work, both at sea and in harbour. This includes issues such as standing watches, conducting damage control training, ship safety training and survival at sea. Issues such as obtaining experienced Carrier Air Group Commanders to command the air element would be taxing. The development of the 'shipside' such as the ship's Commander Air, its head of the Air Department, and the team responsible for the shipboard side of training and operations would also be demanding. The RAN and RAAF would need to build this up over the next few years, by exchange postings to overseas forces operating aircraft at sea. Given the 'Force 2020' proposals and vision this should be possible. Noting Project Air 6000's impact on Australian strategy and its very significant budget, this proposal should be investigated in a meaningful and open fashion.
The benefits that could flow from such an approach are more diverse than just the direct strategic options such a capability provides. Less obvious effects perhaps could be an increase in the retention of aircrew, with them being given better opportunities to serve in operational environments away from Australian bases than occurs at present. Other effects may include... operations free from considerations of diplomatic issues of third nation land based air operations...."

The Aussies Focus on Amphibious Capability: A Plan Jericho Opportunity?
04 Aug 2015 SLDinfo
"2015-08-04 This Spring, the Marine Corps hosted an amphibious conference in Hawaii which provided a first of its kind look at the evolution of amphibious capabilities in the region. 23 nations from the region joined the Marines and Navy in looking at the amphibious dynamic and discussing ways ahead within the region.
In part this is happening because of the demonstrated utility for the afloat force to provide for humanitarian assistance of simply connectivity and support in a crisis in addition to more robust approaches to military operations.
In a discussion with Brigadier General Mahoney, Deputy MARFORPAC, the emergence of what the Marines call "amphibiosity" [only the gyrenes could invent new woids such as this] within the region was a key point of discussion.
There are clear differences in the region between those who focus on an older concept of amphibious forces as transit or transportation assets and those who see a more robust role for those forces within an overall integrated force structure.
A challenge is simply the ambiguity of what amphibious means in the wake of the Osprey revolution and the coming of the F-35B.
As one Marine put aboard the USS WASP: [think this in context of 'fleet defence as explained a zillion times now']"No one in the world has ever sent an airplane off of an amphibious ship with this level of situational awareness and fusion between aircraft to aircraft and aircraft to ship.
The fusion of the data aboard the airplanes and your ability to see what other planes are seeing a number of miles away from you, as well as what the ship is seeing, and then to be able to communicate with them without using the radio is a tactical and strategic advantage that can not really be over stated."
And with the Osprey, now the amphibious ready group operates over a vastly increased area and is able to prosecute a wide variety of tasks over that operational area....
...They [a report mentioned in the article - go there or be square] focus on the shifts the Australian Army will need to make as well as the importance of working the joint problem as well. They make a solid case for setting up and amphibious center of excellence as well.
Clearly, C2 and aviation demands are important to resolve as well. And the C2 side will not be solved within the amphibious fleet itself and is more a joint opportunity as suggested by the RAAF approach to Plan Jericho.
The ability to link across the combat force is not about what organically is ON the amphibious ships but what those ships can connect to in the battlespace. The connectivity between the Wedgetail and the surface fleet is a key way ahead for managing the amphibious aspect as well.
And buying a Tiger helicopter without working out how to operate it onboard a ship or the same for an F-35B is not how one wants to approach the future of the amphibious ships within an integrated force.
The report really does not discuss the aviation aspect of the amphibious fleet, which for the USN-USMC team has been the most dynamic reshaper of amphibious operations, and this reshaping is really only just under way.
The Australian Army would need to look considerably more like the USMC in terms of ship ready aviation and related systems to get from here to there in 21st century operations. But given the close relationship this is a very feasible outcome.
Maritime-based helicopter support is part of but not the future of more advanced amphibious operations, and the Plan Jericho opportunity might provide a framework to shape a way ahead for the amphibious fleet in Australia."

Plan JERICHO Program of Work Transforming Air Force's Combat Capability
27 Jul 2015 RAAF PR
"....Enhance Air Force's Maritime Operations Capability [page 10 Plan Jericho Program of Work]
Owner: Commander Surveillance and Response Group
Commence: To be determined after consultation with the Royal Australian Navy
Complete: Within four years
Air Force's vision is to enhance the capabilities of air and maritime platforms through effective integration and training. This project will enhance joint air and maritime operations such as maritime surveillance, maritime strike, under-sea warfare and protection of the Amphibious Task Group (ATG). Air Force will work with the Navy to develop concepts through experimentation, war-gaming and ongoing joint collective training. Some aspects of this project are already being addressed, but there is a need for a coordinated approach to capability realisation and doctrine development, and opportunities for short-term successes.
Elements to be addressed or considered
• With the air-land integration project owner, develop Air Force's input into amphibious doctrine and TTPs.
• Develop Air Force input into broader airmaritime doctrine and TTPs.
• Ensure Air Force can contribute to the maritime operating picture in real time.
• In consultation with Director General Air Command Operations, ensure that situational awareness data is shared between air and maritime platforms at the tactical and operational level.
• Ensure Air Force capabilities can provide communications gateways or relays necessary for the surface groups to retain
information control in contested, denied operating (CDO) environments.
• In consultation with the AWC, develop professional education and training in maritime strike for operators, planners and Commanders.
• In consultation with the AWC, develop professional education and training in anti-subsurface warfare and amphibious
operations for operators, planners and Commanders.
• Transition development of Air Force maritime doctrine and TTPs to the Air Warfare Centre when it has the capacity to do so...."...Develop an Integrated Fire Control Capability [page 16]
Owner: Commander Air Combat Group
Commence: Chief of Air Force Advisory Committee submission – 2nd Quarter 2016
Complete: Seven years
To fight and win in the future, Air Force must be capable of sharing weapons quality sensor data across airborne, surface [MARITIME? NAVY?] and land based platforms. Automated sensor crosscueing will enable collaborative detection, identification and engagement of targets at long range in a contested environment. Air Force's integrated fire control policy will guide engagement with other services, the evolution of Air Force platforms, the acquisition of new platforms, and the development of associated doctrine and operational concepts within Air Force and across the Joint Force. Capability Management of Integrated Fire Control will be described in the Capability Management framework, along with other integrated effects. Air Force will pursue the development of integrated fire control while this Capability Management framework is matured.
Elements to be addressed or considered
• Develop a roadmap for integrated fire control.
• Develop integrated fire control capabilities across all required Force Elements (FE).
• Build networks so that sensors can detect, identify and engage targets collaboratively across all FE.
• Develop doctrine and TTPs for the use of integrated fire control across Air Force.
• Develop doctrine and TTPs for the use of integrated fire control across the Joint Force.
• Transition development of integrated fire control doctrine, TTPs and experimentation to the Air Warfare Centre...."

[This aspect could be a problem because our last aircraft carriers were designed for the NORTH ATLANTIC which meant they had NO AIRCON which made living conditions almost unbearable in the tropics where they operated a lot on exercise as well in sub-tropical waters until a few parts of MELBOURNE were airconditioned when A4Gs onboard. But 'reinforced decks' me likee ]
"It's desirable that we sell them as quickly as possible," Le Drian told RTL.
France already has three Mistrals and would have difficulty absorbing the ships into its Navy.

Why the UK won't purchase the ex-Russian Mistral assault ships, even though we should
07 Aug 2015 SaveTheRoyalNavy
"There are many suggesting the RN purchase the 2 ex-Russian Mistral class assault ships from France. The ships which have excellent aviation facilities as well as a floodable dock for landing craft would make superb replacements for HMS Ocean, Albion & Bulwark. If this government understood the true value of amphibious capability, they could abandon the flawed and quite desperate plan to make the QE aircraft carriers double as assault ships and buy the Mistrals.
However, this is very unlikely to happen because:... [I'll leave you in suspenders]
3. The Mistrals are not fully compatible with RN requirements as they are fitted with Russian & French systems. They would need expensive re-fitting with RN standard equipment.... [This would be a problemo for Oz also.]

"Tessa said something that completely change my path and my life. She said that 'falling in love with life was the first step on the a mystical path.'"
- Adam Bucko
I first met Tessa Bielecki as I was exiting a port-a-potty. Let me explain. A few years back, I was at an arts and spirituality festival. As I departed a port-a-potty, I made a crack about it being a cramped prayer cell (or some such nonsense) to the woman next in line, and she let out an infectious belly laugh while held the grimy door open. Looking back, this was the right way to meet Tessa. See Tessa Bielecki is a contemplative on the roads of the world. She is familiar with the ditches, the biways and the old desert roads that take you to the end of what you know. And she's gracious enough to share her wisdom of these roads with us today.
Tessa Bielecki has written a number of books, I recommend them all, and most heartily Holy Daring: The Earthy Mysticism of St. Teresa, the Wild Woman of Avila. Tessa dipped into a contemplative way of being early in her life and has followed that thread all the way up to the present moment. She been a part of many groundbreaking contemplative initiatives, and I'll highlight one now. The Desert Foundation was founded by Tessa with her pal Fr. David Denny 'an informal circle of friends exploring the spirit of the desert, its landscape and soulscape, with a special focus on peace and reconciliation among the Abrahamic traditions: Jews, Christians, and Muslims.' You'll get a mighty wash of that spirit of the desert in our conversation today, which holds the bearings for a rhythm of life that incorporates contemplative practices, the insights gleaned from re-reading formational books in your life, why the stories of Ernest Shackleton might just be the marker for transforming a season of life and so much more.

Sick ISIS jihadis celebrate Manchester Arena suicide bombing as the 'successful' slaughter of kids and threaten more terror attacks
Supporters of the terror group said the attack was revenge for Mosul airstrikes
SICK ISIS jihadis have celebrated the "successful and surprising" Manchester Arena massacre and threatened more terror attacks.
Supporters of the terror group gleefully shared propaganda saying the attack that killed 22 and injured 50 others during Ariana Grande's gig was revenge for Mosul airstrikes.
There's no official claim of responsibility and UK officials have not proven ISIS link yet.
One extremist shared an image of an explosion with a caption: "Kill him everywhere."
Another Twitter user, who appeared to be an ISIS supporter, posted an ominous message saying: "We have more #manchesterarena".
One jihadi shared a shot of injured children, saying: "It seems that bombs of the British airforce over children of Mosul and Raqqa has just came back to Manchester."
Many of those killed in the Manchester attack are feared to be youngsters watching Ariana, who had just left stage.
Thousands who had watched the show fled after hearing a "massive bang" with crowds of screaming and crying teens rushing from the venue.
Greater Manchester Police said: "Just before 10.35pm on Monday 22 May 2017 police were called to reports of an explosion at Manchester Arena. So far 22 people have been confirmed dead, with around 50 others injured.
"This is currently being treated as a terrorist incident until police know otherwise."
Bomb squads were called in and carried out a precautionary controlled explosion, which was later found to be abandoned clothing.
British Transport Police have confirmed the explosion went off in the foyer area of the stadium adding that emergency services are working to establish the cause and ask people to avoid the area.
Shocking pictures and video footage have shown the bloodied injured leaving the 21,000 capacity arena as passers-by rushed to try and help.
Unconfirmed reports from NHS sources have said injuries suggest the explosion could have been caused by a nail bomb. Reuters reports that two US officials have said suicide bombers are suspected.
Courtney Spencer, a 17-year-old student who was at the concert with a pal, told The Sun: "It happened just in front of us at the top of the stairs. We didn't know what had happened. It could have been a gun or a bang or an explosion.
"We just grabbed each other and got away. One lass was laying in her mother's arms. I'm not sure if she has collapsed in shock or was injured."
Terrified fans who escaped the deadly explosion were left struggling to make it home after nearby Victoria station was evacuated and all trains and trams cancelled.
But kind-hearted strangers rallied to help, with hundreds of Manchester locals offering up places to stay for the night using the #roomformanchester hashtag.
More than 50 kids were taken to a nearby Holiday Inn so they could be kept safe after the attack that left 22 dead and 50 others injured.
Paula Robinson wrote on Facebook: "We have got about 50 kids with us waiting to be picked up, they are safe, we will look after them.
"Please re post for any parents with children - we have taken as many kids as we can to Holiday Inn."
Social media was awash with generous gestures, with some offering free taxi rides and others saying they could provide cups of tea and hugs.
Rachel Ellis tweeted: "If you need a bed, a cup of tea, a charged phone etc. - I'm 15 mins from Manchester Arena. DM me, they're open! #RoomForManchester"
Sarah Donohoe said: "Double bed & double air bed available at our flat near Piccadilly if anyone affected needs a place to stay #roomformanchester #manchester."
Hannah S tweeted: "We have a spare room, we are in the city centre, if anyone can't get home. #manchester #roomformanchester."
Another said: "Wonderful people of Manchester using #RoomForManchester to help those in need."
Desperate parents who had not heard from their kids since the concert posted details on social media.
Hospitals have been told to expect a "rush" of patients following the horrific attack.
Extra medics were reportedly drafted in at Wythenshawe Hospital to help in the aftermath of the incident.
Ariana is understood to be "safe" after "explosions" at her Manchester Arena concert that left 22 dead and multiple others injured.
The singer's label rep has reportedly confirmed she is "okay" as hundreds of her fans took to social media to say they are "praying for her".
Witnesses on social media have reported hearing a "massive bang" before screaming crowds rushed out of venue with police confirming there was an explosion.
Police said: "Emergency services are currently responding to reports of an explosion at Manchester Arena.
"There are a number of confirmed fatalities and others injured.
"Please AVOID the area as first responders work tirelessly at the scene.
"Details of a casualty bureau will follow as soon as available."
Unconfirmed reports from NHS sources have said the injuries seen suggest the explosion could have been caused by a nail bomb.
Manchester Victoria Station has shut down all services in and out while emergency units respond.
Witnesses have reported seeing emergency services swarming at the scene as video footage shows crowds fleeing and armed cops arriving.

Price: $7.95
The Knife Training Methods and Techniques for Martial Artists series gives the martial arts interested person a solid background on the importance of the knife as a combat weapon, inspires the reader about the benefits of knife training, and provides detailed step-by-step instruction in how to manipulate and defend against a knife with speed, proficiency, and confidence.
Almost any martial art, traditional or modern, can be adapted to knife offense and defense without changing the basic principles of the art. Since the knife is a relatively small and lightweight weapon, many of the same moves and movement patterns you use in your empty-hand art are easily transferable to your knife techniques, and vice versa. The practical lessons you learn by adding knife training to your arsenal include quick reaction skills, physical and mental control, footwork and evasion tactics, distance control, and target precision.
Knife training gives you a decided physical and mental edge and opens new dimensions that will deepen your understanding of the martial arts. Knife Attacks and Targets, the fourth book in the series, covers the benefits of training in knife offense and target precision, the effects of striking primary and secondary targets, and the ethical considerations of using an edged weapon against an adversary in combat. The book also includes a number of training exercises designed to enhance your assertiveness and timing when attacking with the knife.
The full series comprises the following books:
1. Knife Anatomy
2. Knife Carry and Deployment
3. Knife Grip and Manipulation
4. Knife Attacks and Targets
5. Knife Fighting Stance, Footwork, and Dynamics of Motion
6. Knife Defense Basics
7. Knife Defense Dynamics

You can certainly use the HDD however you want but the copy of windows that came with the laptop you pulled the drive from is non-transferable. MS will be unwilling to help make it a lagit copy of windows for your new system so you'll have to buy a new copy of windows.
Can I put Laptop HDD in a custom build and use same OS? Answered
I have a 2.5 sata harddrive with an OS from an HP laptop. Can I plug this drive into a new custom build so that I don't have to buy a new hard drive and OS
I bought a win7 home premium and was allowed to put it on 2 other machines. Putting the hdd in a custom build may require a call to
ms and they will enable the os from their end.
Good Luck
Admittedly my "allowed installs" info dates to around windows 2000 or earlier (been a mostly BSD and Linux user since mid-90s). Glad to hear it seems a little outdated in a positive way :-)
It would not surprise me if it depends on the type of windows version (OEM, Home Basic, Home Premium... or what they call them these days) But perhaps I should stop making a fool of myself making guesses at this :-)
Im a Linux user as well, these day's win 7 is only on my machine so I can play games, in the future Steam will offer AAA games for Linux and It will good bye to MS for good
If it have a standard sata connector (often internal laptop drives have custom connectors in my experience) then it should be technically possible.
(Note that I am not a lawyer, and I am north-european - laws are different all over):
Assuming you have Microsoft Windows on the disk, it is likely an OEM (original equimpment manufacturer) version. Which means legally you may not be allowed to make that switch (it is bound to the laptop). Though I am not sure I have ever heard of anyone being in legal trouble over it (except companies). It is technically possible, with the caveat that drivers for the new computer may be missing.
I hope that is of some help...
Sorry to reply to myself but...
If you bought the version of windows yourself seperately (that is, it is not an OEM) then i believe you are free to use it on whichever machine you want (though only on 1 at a time unless you paid for more licenses)

Just hours before an exceptional EU summit on Greece, an agreement could be signed that would lead to a deal on the second bail-out package for Greece, releasing the final tranche of 7.2 billion euros. Greece could then meet its deadlines in late June with the IMF (1.6 billion euros) as well as those in July and August with the ECB (6.6 billion euros) and again with the IMF (0.45 billion euros). At the end of August, Greece's debt to the IMF could rise by almost 1.5 billion euros, as the IMF is contributing 3.5 billion euros to the 7.2 billion euro tranche.
Greece has to repay a total of 8.6 billion euros by September, and nearly 12 billion by the end of the year, which means funding needs that exceed the 7.2 billion euros covered by the negotiations with the Brussels Group (i.e. the ex-Troika). To deal with this, the Hellenic Financial Stability Fund (HFSF) could be used, to the tune of about 10 billion euros, but it will no longer be available for recapitalizing the banks.

Women's Ashes Test
Lanning calls for more Test cricket
Aussie skipper wants the growth of the women's game to extend to Test cricket
Cricket Network
9 April 2019, 01:43 PM AEST
Australia captain Meg Lanning hopes the proliferation of top-level women's cricket in recent years can ultimately include more regular Test cricket.
As Lanning and her troops look to become accustomed to an increasingly hectic cricket schedule, the continued scarcity of Test cricket is one area of the game she would like to see addressed.
And key to any potential shift on that front, she believes, is India.
"We'd love to play more Test matches," Lanning told SEN radio's Whateley program. "Unfortunately it's only Australia and England that are interested at the moment, and we only play each other every couple of years.
"Hopefully down the track more countries are interested.
"I think India would be great at playing Test matches – I think they'd be the big fish to get involved because they've got such a big influence in cricket.
"If that was the case, I think that would definitely help that side of the game grow, but unfortunately one game every two years is difficult to prepare for and play well.
"But we enjoy playing them so hopefully there's a few more down the track."
England (seven matches) and Australia (six) have led the way in women's Test cricket over the past decade, with India's involvement limited to just two matches as the white-ball formats continue to dominate the evolution of the game.
The Women's Ashes this northern summer will again be a multi-format points-based showdown, with one Test match (worth four points) sandwiched by three ODIs (two points each) and three T20Is (two points each) respectively.
Lanning says the irregular scheduling of the format also poses challenges.
"(It) is something we don't do too often, so that presents another challenge for us, just in terms of training and preparation," she added.
"We've got to get the balance right to be ready for that format, because we play so much short-format cricket that it sort of takes us a couple of days to work out what we're doing in a Test match. "We obviously want to win that Test match – it's not the be-all and end-all of the series, but it does play a big part, and putting on that Baggy Green is a very special moment for all our group, and we always look forward to that opportunity.
"So preparing for that is something we've looked at, and we have certain days along the way, and weeks, where we have the focus on the longer formats."
Australia's female cricketers are currently enjoying a leave period, before the national squad links back up in Brisbane in the coming weeks ahead of a June departure to the UK. Beyond that, a standalone WBBL competition in October-November, a full WNCL season and the Women's WT20 World Cup in Australia completes an intense period.
"The amount of cricket we're playing both domestically and internationally has certainly increased," Lanning said.
"Once we get away in June with the Ashes, we don't really stop until April next year.
"That's become the new norm, I guess, and being able to deal with that is something we're going to look at.
"We're really exciting about the amount of cricket we've got coming up."

How to File a Home Insurance Claim: Is It Worth It, or Will You Regret It Big-Time?
If your home gets damaged by a flood, falling tree, or other random accident, you'll want to know how to file a home insurance claim. Homeowners insurance can help you cover the costs of repairs, providing some much-needed financial relief. But before you file that claim, you'll want to know the process (and the consequences) so you can plan accordingly.
Here's what you need to know about filing home insurance claims:
1. How much will I get paid?
While it depends on your particular policy, typically insurance companies will cover anything over your deductible. For example, if your deductible is $2,000, and the damage is going to cost $50,000 to repair, you'll pay the $2,000 and you'll receive the remaining $48,000. Whatever your deductible, you won't be able to file your claim until you've paid that first.
2. Are there consequences to filing a claim?
If you file a lot of claims, this might spur your home insurer to raise your rates or cancel your policy once it's up for renewal.
You'll do not want to look like a risk. Depending on how large the claim is and how many you've had, your insurer may 'nonrenew' you for the next period.
However, assuming you've been careful about how often you file claims, your policy shouldn't change drastically.
3. Should I file a claim for minor repairs?
Even if your repairs surpass your deductible, that doesn't mean you should definitely file, because it could prompt your insurer to raise rates.
As a general rule of thumb, if you can afford the cost of repairs, it's best to pay out of pocket for anything up to $1,000 over your deductible.
4. Should I document the damage?
For starters, keep in mind that it's good for everyone if you can stop more damage from occurring, so handle emergencies yourself as soon as possible.
If a window is broken, and rain is pouring in the house, cover it up as soon as possible. Before you clean up, however, you'll want to take some photos as proof of the damage. From there, you'll want to inform your insurer as soon as you can.
5. What is 'proof of loss' and how does it apply to filing a claim?
A proof of loss form is a sworn statement by you, the policyholder, to your insurance company regarding your loss and/or damages.
Typically, it includes pertinent information like where and when the loss took place and the amount you are claiming. You're basically giving concise details about your claim and how the damage was done.
A proof of loss form is important to getting your claim processed quickly and efficiently, and it usually accompanies other supporting documents such as receipts.
6. After I file a claim, how long does it take to get paid?
The laws vary by state regarding how quickly a payout must occur.
Typically, the insurer must approve or deny a claim within 10 to 15 days. But some states allow up to 60 days - and others just stipulate "within a reasonable time. You can ask your Agent what the payout stipulations are in your state.
Once the claim is approved and an amount is agreed on, payment is usually due within 30 to 45 days. This means that, in theory, it should take about 60 days from the time you file your claim to receive your payout.
7. Is there anything I can do to speed things up?
The more organized you are - with documents, photos, and receipts at the ready - the easier you make the jobs of insurance Agents, and the faster your claim will get processed.
Have a list of everything you want to show the claims adjuster. Get detailed estimates from contractors, especially if you're making a claim after a natural disaster or other event when a lot of other people will likely to be filing claims.
Filing in person can also help speed up the process. When you show up in person you put a face with the name, this tends to make an Agent more willing to pursue and check on a claim.

Made from a sage-green felted sweater, this tea cosy is 8" tall - a comfy fit on a 4-6 cup teapot. The decorations are made from similar felted, recycled wools and a vintage button. Aside from the rick-rack stem, the flower comes off for a wearable pin! This also allows for removal before handwashing the cozy.
Charlotte Lyons's creative repertoire includes a happy mix of design, crafts and found objects. Born and educated in Missouri, Charlotte raised three artistic daughters in a bright pink house near Chicago. Presently, she lives with her family in a little green house along the Hudson River in New York.

In many ways Jordan Peele had a tougher road to walk with his second feature film than he did the first time around. There's a scrappy energy to Get Out that can only come when you're the underdog. Many of us were intrigued when it was announced that funnyman Jordan Peele was going to try his hand at a horror movie, but expectation wasn't a crazy high bar for him.
Then Get Out came out, was amazing, made a crapton of money, started winning awards and impacted pop culture in a huge way.
While he earned the industry's respect and probably had a blank check anywhere around town for his next film there had to be a weight of expectation on him this time around that wasn't there before. If Us was anything less than a pop culture phenomenon would it be a failure when held up next to its successful older brother?
Us is a different kind of film than Get Out. It's not a rehash of the same messaging and lofty ideas of the first film, but because Peele made it so quickly after Get Out it shares some of that film's underdog energy. There are similarities, but it's by no means the same experience and I honestly can't predict how the masses will respond to it. Will they embrace it for the good film it is or will they want something more like what he did before?
What I can tell you without ruining your experience is that while the premise is way more Twilight Zone-y than Get Out it does have a few key things in common. For one, Peele proves that he's as sharp as ever when it comes to throwing in some subtext under his fun horror movie. In this case he's asking us to look at our own evils, not some "other." The villainy on display here isn't a mask-wearing psycho or a pissed off ghost or a finger-knived dream demon. It's you.
Secondly, his talent for crafting complex, intriguing characters is still on full display. The Wilsons are a totally fleshed out family unit and there wasn't one of them I wasn't happy to get to know better every scene. Lupita Nyong'o in particular knocks this out of the park. I know she won her Oscar for 12 Years a Slave, and deservedly so, but if there was any real justice in this world she'd win another for this performance. If you've seen the trailer you know she plays dual roles (as does the rest of her family) and while I knew she would bring it for her "regular lady" part I was shocked at how much depth and attention to detail she put into creating the "crazy lady" part. She turned in not one but two top line performances here and while the others did absolutely fantastic jobs at their dual roles as well, Nyong'o's work is the most central and important performance in film and she flat out nails it.
Winston Duke also turns in a great performance as Gabe, the patriarch of the family. He gets most of the comic relief moments and it's a testament to his natural charm and charisma that he can pull that off without disrupting the overall creepy tone.
Shahadi Wright Joseph and Evan Alex round out the family as the two kids. Like their mom and dad they get to be proactive when the shit goes down. There's not a whole lot of cowering and hiding in this movie. When it's time to fight they fight and that includes the kids. It's a small touch, but one I liked a lot.
Get Out wore it's racial ideology on its sleeve. It was woven into the very fabric of that film's themes. I feel like Us is just as progressive, but in a much subtler way. The Winston family isn't treated any differently than anyone else. Tim Heidecker and Elizabeth Moss aren't their "white friends." They're just their friends. Peele never tries to hide The Wilsons' cultural influences and history, but what's so progressive about what he does here is he shows us this family with zero judgments or nods to how crazy it is there's a black family at the center of this story. They're strong, they have agency, they play things smart and you're rooting for them the whole way through.
Again, I really can't tell if general audiences will accept Us as readily as they did Get Out, but as far as I'm concerned Peele avoided a sophomore slump here. Us feels like a film that will reward rewatches. The score and cinematography are both top notch, there's so many rich character details that I feel like I probably only got half of them on this first watch and I just want to go back and spend more time with these characters.

Police chief defends force after second officer is convicted
PUBLISHED: 17:19 10 March 2010 | UPDATED: 09:35 12 August 2010
A POLICE commander has defended his officers after a second cop in 18 months was convicted for misconduct on his watch.
A POLICE commander has defended his officers after a second cop in 18 months was convicted for misconduct on his watch.
Borough Commander Charles Griggs insisted that misconduct in the police was "not a Bromley issue" and said that he was still the right person to lead the force.
One of his new officers, James Formby, was convicted for misconduct in a public office after he had sex with a woman who had called 999 alleging domestic violence.
His conviction comes just over 18 months after Bromley police officer Malcolm Searles was jailed for six-and-a-half years last October for killing Sandy Simpson as he sped in a patrol car in Homesdale Road, Bromley Common.
Mr Griggs admitted that he had "never encountered" officers like Searles and Formby in his 31 years in the police service.
He added: "I was horrified by the driver behaviour of Malcolm Searles.
"I don't think a single officer here was not disgusted by what had happened, and I thought he should face the consequences.
"Formby was recently transferred from another force with 10 years' service. I can't believe he behaved like that here without it happening elsewhere.
"He may have tried it on somewhere else and got away with it but he tried it on in Bromley and he didn't get away with it."
But Mr Griggs insisted that no change in management at the police station was necessary, adding: "It is not a Bromley issue. We maintain high standards of conduct and we take great pride
in the high standards of behaviour.
"When officers don't meet those, we do something about it.
"We need to learn as to why this happened - what put Malcolm Searles in the position that he thought driving like that was acceptable and why Formby did what he did.
"We are absolutely horrified at Formby's conduct and he will never work as a police officer again."
Formby, 31, narrowly escaped jail last Thursday when he was handed a 20-week prison sentence suspended for two years after he admitted a single count of misconduct in a public office.
Southwark Crown Court heard he had sex with a victim of domestic abuse at her home after he and colleagues responded to her emergency call.
An atmosphere of "sexual tension" developed between the pair as she described how she had been attacked by her boyfriend, a male stripper.
It led to her performing a sex act on him in her bedroom last September.
Formby admitted a single count of misconduct in a public office.
He was ordered to carry out 200 hours of unpaid work and pay £1,000 in prosecution and defence costs.
Judge Nicholas Loraine-Smith said: "Your duty as a police officer was to treat her professionally.

In Retirement, You Can't Invest
Until You Know This
Good Morning Relaxing Retirement Subscriber,
Every "retirement calculator" I've come across from any financial firm always begins with you assuming an investment rate of return you either want to earn or think you can earn.
This completely puts the cart before the horse.
It's what gets so many people into trouble, and what causes so much confusion and anxiety.
Once you're past the first steps in The Relaxing Retirement Formula™, and you know just how dependent you are on your Retirement Bucket™, the next question is, "what rate of return do I need to earn on my investments?"
That rate is NOT chosen arbitrarily. It's the investment rate of return that allows your Retirement Bucket™ to outpace inflation and remain intact year after year while allowing you to continue to spend what you want.
And, it's different for everybody so there's no 'rule of thumb'.
Why This Rate Is Different For Everybody
To illustrate why it's different for everybody, let's revisit what we know about our two couples who we've been discussing over the last few weeks:
For simple round numbers, let's assume each couple has:
- $2.0 million dollars in investments,
- the same social security retirement income, and
- the same pensions.
Beyond that, here's what else we know about them:
Bill and Linda Independent have no mortgage or home equity line of credit, and have recently completed many of the major upgrades to their home, i.e. a new roof, new indoor and outdoor paint, a new furnace, and new bathrooms. They purchased new cars with cash in the last two years which they plan to drive for ten years since they put very little mileage on their cars.
Ron and Rose Reactionary still have $365,000 outstanding on a second mortgage they took out to pay for their kids' college tuitions and weddings, and a condo down in Florida they bought a few years back. They both drive high end cars which they replace every three years. And, while their home is very nice, after 26 years, it is starting to look "tired" and will need significant upgrades in the next two years.
Ron and Rose are clearly more dependent on their Retirement Bucket™ than Bill and Linda, meaning they need to withdraw a lot more money each year to support their more expensive lifestyle.
If they need to withdraw a lot more money each year, then their Retirement Bucket™ needs to grow faster just to remain full so they don't run out of money.
If their Retirement Bucket™ needs to grow faster, then Ron and Rose need to earn a greater investment rate of return than Bill and Linda!
When you've reached the stage where the money you've saved must now support you for the rest of your life, when you're dependent on your money to "live" as opposed to receiving a paycheck from the work you do, you have to think very differently about how you're investing your money.
This is no longer a game. It's no longer a race. You can't afford to lose this time because, if you do, you'll be forced to do one of two things:
- make drastic cutbacks in your lifestyle (who wants to do that after working all these years in preparation for this stage in your life where you get to reap all the rewards of being a diligent saver), or
- you will have to go back to work to make up for the losses, something your health could prevent you from doing in the future.
Neither of those sound like very good outcomes, so that's why you have to think very differently about investing at your stage in life.
And, it's why you have to know the investment rate of return you must earn, as opposed to randomly investing your money in whatever appears to be the 'hot' thing at the moment.
The Medical Analogy
To draw an analogy, it would be like you taking a new medication without a doctor first analyzing your symptoms and doing a thorough examination to determine if you even need any medication at all.
When asked why you're about to take this new potent drug, the doctor tells you that it's a really popular drug right now. It's all over the news and everyone's taking it.
Now, if that sounds ridiculous to you, you're right. However, this is how millions of Americans select their investments in retirement.
They don't have a carefully calculated rate of return they're aiming for. And, because they don't, they're at the mercy of the next salesperson who sells them whatever makes that salesperson the most money, or whatever appears to be "hot".
For all the reasons I mentioned above, this is extremely dangerous. Don't be lazy and fall into this trap. Take the time to figure out the rate of return you need to earn first.
Then you can go about crafting an investment matrix with specific investments that have the highest likelihood of generating that investment rate of return over the long run.
In the next edition of The Retirement Coach Strategy of the Week, we will help you determine the investment rate of return that YOU need to earn.
Committed to Your Relaxing Retirement,
Jack Phelps

Sat August 14, 2004 - Midwest Edition
TYNDALL, SD (AP) Tyndall officials and residents are hoping for better drinking water by late fall.
The town is tapping into the B-Y Rural Water System as part of a $12.4 million expansion of a treatment plant southeast of Tabor, said B-Y manager Mike Williams.
B-Y is obtaining easements and preparing for the bid process, Williams said, and hopes to complete the project by late fall or early spring.
Soaring demand at the treatment plant made the expansion project a necessity and opened a window to add new customers, Williams said.
"We reached our peak capacity in 2002," he said. "The industries in town are expanding, and we need adequate capacity."
Tyndall Mayor Dick McCann, who calls the city's water "terrible," said connecting to the pipeline will be a great improvement.
"It will make our residents happier," McCann said.
The state Board of Water and Natural Resources approved a $75,000 grant for Tyndall to connect to the system. The grant, combined with local funds and a $861,000 Drinking Water State Revolving Fund loan, provides the financing to construct the pipeline and pay a one-time hookup fee of $150,000.
Workers will install about 64,000 feet of eight-inch diameter pipe to bring 264,000 gallons of water per day into the city.
The upcoming construction of 300 to 400 miles of pipeline will serve northwest Hutchinson County, southwest Bon Homme County and Tyndall, Williams said.
B-Y will add nearly 1,500 Tyndall residents to its system, as well as 176 rural customers in Hutchinson County and 138 in Bon Homme County, Williams said. The rural customers are charged $1,550 apiece for membership.
The northwest Hutchinson County pipeline will become the first phase. The $1.8 million project will be financed by a $900,000 grant and a $900,000 loan through the U.S. Department of Agriculture.
Lynn Jensen, state director for USDA Rural Development, said the project represents more than just water. The pipeline brings tremendous potential for value-added agriculture and entrepreneurial activities, he said.
"Look at the demographics," Jensen said. "Wherever there is not an integrated water system, you have an out-migration of population. Those who have water are growing."

Free waffles had Langley Meadows Community School students rushing off to class bright and early Thursday morning.
Beljam's Waffles food truck, with the help of a few staff members and parents, served up a warm breakfast for hungry elementary students.
Nathen and Sophena Shandler, owners and operators of Beljam's, have been feeding Langley Meadows students for the past four years through the Breakfast Club Program.
"We do one thing – waffles," Nathen said. "We'll serve waffles with apple preserves, strawberries, and whip cream to about 100 to 150 kids. We always have extra ingredients left over from the year. It's a way to clear the closet, but mainly it's a way to do some good."
Beljam's food truck is a seasonal venture for the couple, available for special events only and the occasional film set catering gig.

Nathen said when they did operate on the streets of Vancouver a number of years back, they initially hooked up with the Breakfast Club at Strathcona Elementary before moving to the Fraser Valley.
The Breakfast Club of Canada is a nation-wide organization, aimed at working with schools and communities to give students access to healthy meals before class.
With the win/win opportunity of helping hungry children and closing down the food truck efficiently, it's been a yearly tradition the couple makes sure they continue.
"Most every truck closes for the winter and so I like to put out the challenge out there to all of them to give back," Nathen explained.
With lips covered in syrup and full bellies abundant at Langley Meadows, it was clear a successful morning wrapped up another summer season for Beljam's Waffle truck.
Through the Breakfast Club program, students at Langley Meadows are given a nutritious meal that also gives them a space to socialize every morning.
