Some more excellent pics of our poly tunnel cover as seen from inside, taken by Mick Nolan and used, naturally, with his full permission. It looks like a good job to my untutored eye and will work well this winter and for future winters. I am not sure how or where we will store it but I presume the guys will have something up their sleeves. Incidentally, one of the shots includes a Birthday Boy, namely our own Boss of Volunteers, Basil Brambleby. Many Happy Returns for today, Basil. I hope they spoil you rotten and you don't have to work too hard, at least not on the barge. Still look just as young, handsome and fit as when I first met you. 🙂 Happy Birthday.
Gear Down; into action!
A busy weekend for the Volunteer team. They have wound the gear down for maintenance, painting and 'bending on' the sails (fixing them to the spars). Dave Brooks on Facebook tells me, "Here are some pictures of Cambria yesterday morning and yesterday afternoon. Gear is down ready for painting the mast and sprit and then for the epic fun that is re-rigging. Lots of very hard work ahead of us plus a visit to Oare Creek. At least the sailing season is a another step closer". They will miss Nozz, I am thinking. He was an expert on de-rigging and re-rigging.
Meanwhile in an email I get a nice programme of events, which I will add to the calendar when I get a chance. There is also a progress report as follows, from DB.
"It was a busy weekend on the Cambria. Yesterday Skipper Ian Ruffles and Mate Denis Johnson came down and got the masts lowered ready for painting. Today Boss of Volunteers, Basil has cleaned and sanded the topmast in readiness for oiling and varnishing. Mark Chapman and I have washed and sanded the sprit, and thanks to the weather we managed to get it painted as well. Julie Brooks has been busy getting the galley ready for the new season. She was duly dispatched off to Tesco's for Mr Muscle oven cleaner and the cooker is now looking like new again. Word for all our prospective charterer's (And Skipper's cooking Pizza) the Mr Muscle oven cleaner will be in the kitchen cupboard". I think we'll take that as a 'pointed' comment, Dave!
Facebook update from DB
First a couple of drawings of those main mast winch drums showing how they will be installed. On either side of the mast you can either winch direct from the upper drum for lighter hauling, or you can use the geared down 'mechanical advantage' version for heavier hauling. Thanks for those, Boss of Volunteers, Basil.
Next a nice progress report on our winter re-fit from Dave Brooks via the Facebook Group. Dave writes, "The sailing season fast approaches and next weekend the mast is lowered in readiness for re-rigging. This year we will be re-rigging at Oare Creek whilst Tim Goldsack and his team undertake work on the heating system, the windlass, anti fouling and a new cabin amongst other things. During the close season all the blocks have been serviced and painted (all the same colour and looking very smart) also a major overhaul of the waste plumbing system has been keeping the air fragrant. Most of the deck furniture has received a fresh coat of paint, but there is still a lot to do. Any volunteers welcome. We will have two clear weekends in order to touch in paint on the mainmast and sprit, coat the topmast and finish serving the standing rigging that hasn't already been done. Once again the weather has held up painting but investigations are ongoing for a poly tunnel next winter. Will keep you all informed of the progress".
Thank you for that, Dave.
A Celebration of Life
Thank you very much, Boss of Volunteers, Basil who posts me a copy of the 'Order of Service' for the recent Celebration of Life for Catherine De Bont. This contains some lovely pictures of Catherine and looks like it was a fine and dignified, appropriate service. It featured my favourite hymn, "Eternal Father, strong to save". I am a Hastings lad, and we grew up knowing the sounds of the lifeboat launch maroons. If ever they had been heard and the lifeboat launched we would sing this hymn in School Assembly. Ah well. Well done to all those involved in the service and the Celebration of Life. She was a wonderful lady and will be much missed.
Readers may not be so aware that Catherine was a good Friend of Cambria going back years; certainly to well before I became involved in 2007. She was an expert journalist and wrote regularly for the magazine "Traditional Boats and Tall Ships" and it was in one of these pieces, also posted to me by Basil, that she covered the forced move of Cambria, in her lighter, from the Dolphin Yard in Sittingbourne, to the Sheerness Docks ("Cambria on the Move" by Catherine De Bont, Trad Boats and Tall Ships, March 2006).
It's a lovely piece again with plenty of nice pictures which I am guessing are also by Catherine – she was certainly handy with a camera. One of my few person to person memories of Catherine actually involves a camera – we were at a lecture in Rochester by Jim Lawrence and she spotted that I was nipping about with my reasonably priced Canon EOS digital camera. She passed me her own top-of-the-range camera and asked me to take a few for her from the back while I was moving about. She was already a 'celeb' to me – beginner barge-fan that I was, so I was a bit star-struck, but I hope I got some nice pics for her. I never did find out.
Ah well. Rest in Peace, Catherine. Fiddler's Green?
Up the Creek
As promised, a report from Boss of Volunteers, Basil on our involvement in the Faversham Nautical Festival last weekend.
Says Basil, "This weekend just gone, we were at the Faversham Basin Festival of Sail, where Faversham
Creek Trust were the main fundraisers – There were a couple of visitors to Cambria
corner who were remembering (Mr Volunteer Views) fondly, and regretting your move to Ireland,
but very delighted when they knew that you sort out the website from afar (didn't know them, and too slow to get names). The musical accompaniment to
proceedings was fantastic and much enjoyed by all comers. SB Lady of the Lea
was visited by a constant stream of people in all age groups, the Creek
Trust appeared to collect many new members which must have made their
efforts all worthwhile. Bangers and burgers were available along with a flow
of beers. We were there to sort of join up the Apprenticeship scheme since
it started via Cambria, and should continue in the Purifier Building,
hopefully. We were very cordially treated. Dave Walsh and
Catherine de Bont were around. She had brought her boat up to join many
others in the Creek.
It was mentioned to me by several people how Medway Ports has become
involved with the Lock Gate, and I pointed out to them that it was project
manager William Collard who initiated this action."
Basil reminds us that "next week we're on the pontoon at Gravesend."
Thanks for that, Basil and thanks to the people who remembered me. The picture is by Dave Brooks. The Cambria stand is the green gazebo behind the bowsprit.
A Clean Bow
While we are still "on the blocks" at Pinmill I thought it would be nice to share another photo with you taken by Dave Brooks. This really just to show you how nice, clean and grey she looks in her new paint. This bow area, particularly has been a problem to keep looking neat due to the bleeding of tar (bitumen?) through between planks outwards, leaving us with a horizontal version of zebra striping. This is not a problem in 'soundness terms' (better tar leaking out than water leaking in!) and is seen as a good thing and common in brand new barges, especially where the bow and sides are double skin, like ours, overlapping but stepped like brick-work, with a layer of bitumen-soaked tar felt between the 1 and a half inch (I think?) planks. The spiking down of the outer skin puts such pressure on the tar felt layer that it bleeds out between planks (inwards and outwards).
Even when we were first painting the hull, before she was launched we would faithfully roller on a layer of the silver-grey only to find it 'spoiled' (in the eyes of we volunteer, beginner-ish painters) by the next morning, especially in warm weather. We'd let it 'dry' (of course it never really did), try to clean it off and then repaint, only for the bleeds to come back again. Eventually she was launched like this and we just had to explain to everyone that this was OK and she might do it for 5 years or so before she eventually settled down.
Well, now the Sea Change Sailing Trust have had a go at painting her again. We'll see whether they get the same issue as the "Summer" progresses.
Tomorrow, a nice report by Boss of Volunteers, Basil Brambleby from the Faversham Nautical Festival which took place last weekend and at which the Cambria Trust had a stand.
Lectures in Gravesend
Ha. The website has just received a nice comment about a recent post which gives details of where you can go to "your best Sexy Lingerie private Online Store". Should I approve it? Um… That'll be a 'No' then.
In "Cambria Watch", Hilary says "Cambria Left Maldon 6.30 am bound Brightlinsea, nice sunny sail though wet now. Cambria now on Brightlingsea Hard and first beer delivery 1.00pm tomorrow (That's today, Friday July 13) hopefully with horse and cart". Love to know how they got on!
Meanwhile Boss of Volunteers, Basil tells me that immediately after the Thames Match this year Cambria will be moored at Gravesend Town Pier and will be used for a series of lectures on barges, the RNLI and The Thames and Medway Canal, by the renowned expert and author Richard Hugh Perks and Friend, expert and Power Station afficionado, Tricia Gurnett.
Basil takes up the story.
"Earlier this year Sailing Barge Cambria strengthened her link with the Town of Gravesend by being the first vessel to berth on the new town pier. This followed a successful spell on the wall at St Andrews last year where she was opened to the public.

News & Events
New Agribusiness Department Chair
Welcome to the 2016 edition of the Cal Poly Agribusiness Department newsletter.
I was hired to lead the Agribusiness Department (AGB) in July 2015. I bring three decades of experience in agricultural economics and business.
It has been extremely gratifying to learn about the tremendous achievements of our AGB students and faculty over the past nine months, as well as the alumni, industry partners, and other friends and constituents of the department.
This past academic year has been an eventful one. In July, Professor Jay Noel retired as department chair and I was asked to assume leadership of the department. Noel's many years of stellar service as both a faculty member and chair led to the hiring of several quality faculty members, some of whom you will hear from in this newsletter. Under his stewardship, the AGB department grew steadily and is now the second most in-demand major in the College of Agriculture, Food and Environmental Sciences (CAFES). The department's success is due to Noel's nurturing of faculty and students, as well as overseeing major improvements in teaching and research effectiveness. Noel will retire from Cal Poly in fall of 2016. Please join me in thanking him for his many years of service to the AGB department and Cal Poly.
Looking to the future, we plan to revamp our curriculum, reinvent our internship program, complete our five-year program review, and renew and refocus our industry advisory council. We will also make improvements to our classrooms, including the creation of a tutoring center that will also serve as a study space, so that our students will have an academic area close to our classrooms.
The AGB faculty continue to attain high levels of success, presenting their research at professional gatherings, obtaining research grants, and publishing research in respected journals. The faculty commitment to the Cal Poly teacher-scholar model immensely benefits students by exposing them to instructors who are fully equipped with state-of-the-art knowledge and the tools to tackle real world problems. Their success in many national competitions is a testament to the quality of our faculty and the willingness of our students to work hard and deliver first-rate performances.
Our students continue to be successful in securing jobs that lead to meaningful careers in the industries they love. As you read this newsletter, I hope you share my pride in the department and the fantastic opportunities it offers our students. I hope to hear from many of you in the coming months and encourage you to stop by and see us whenever you are in San Luis Obispo. On behalf of the AGB students, faculty and staff, I wish you an outstanding and productive remainder of 2016, and hope that success will continue to find you and your loved ones in 2017.
Agribusiness Senior and ASI President Owen Schwaegerle
As ASI President, agribusiness senior Owen Schwaegerle's goal is to fulfill the promises he made to students when running his campaign, which focused on student fees, student safety, school spirit, and helping students find their anchor.
Schwaegerle is lobbying the state government for more funding through the California State Student Association. One bill successfully lobbied in October 2015 was Assembly Bill 798, the Affordable Textbook Act. State advocacy is more effective when students are registering and actively participating in the democratic process, said Schwaegerle. ASI utilized Turbovote, an online registration software, during the Flex Your Right campaign in 2015 to register nearly 2,000 students to vote. Schwaegerle also co-sponsored a debate of the 24th District congressional candidates at Cal Poly to help students become informed prior to the election.
Student Safety is a part of his platform Schwaegerle has become increasingly passionate about. One of the ways he has lobbied to improve safety on campus is through the use of a phone app called Tapshield, which allows students to share information about incidents and identify and communicate potential threats quickly. The ASI executive cabinet is also working on a Mental Health Awareness week in the month of May.
"School spirit is something we need in the midst of these divided and chaotic times worldwide," Schwaegerle said. His cabinet supported athletics with an ASI tailgate before the Homecoming football game as well as a pregame BBQ before the Fresno State doubleheader basketball game at the end of fall. Schwaegerle also helped ASI sponsor an event in the fall called Good Neighbor Day, where nearly 80 students participated in a trash pickup in nearby neighborhoods.
Riley Nilsen, secretary of student responsibility and fellow CAFES student, promoted academics and school spirit through a week-long Be Present Challenge where 600 students downloaded the app PocketPoints, which rewards students for not using their phone during class. Schwaegerle's cabinet also improved ASI's visibility by recruiting an average of 30 students a week to attend the Green Team, a passionate group of students who help put on the executive cabinet's projects.
"We at Cal Poly have much to be proud of and much to be grateful for. Serving the students as ASI President has been a time of growth and humility, and there are many plans yet to come," he said. Schwaegerle and his cabinet hope to plan a neighborhood clean-up and barbecue, a spirit week, and a mental health awareness week before the end of the school year. "I am excited for the times ahead, and honored to serve," he said.
Meet our New Agribusiness Faculty
Two new Agribusiness faculty joined the department this fall. Professor Cristina Connolly joined Cal Poly from Ohio State University. Her research interests include local food, health and direct marketing. She has published research in several peer-reviewed journals, including the American Journal of Agricultural Economics.
Professor Tim Delbridge earned a doctorate degree in applied economics from the University of Minnesota in 2014. He has taught undergraduate courses in managerial economics and environmental economics and policy at the University of Minnesota and Oregon State University.
Cal Poly Named One of Nation's Top Four Colleges of Agriculture by Campus Explorer
Cal Poly's College of Agriculture, Food and Environmental Sciences has been ranked one of the top four colleges of agriculture in the nation by Campus Explorer, a website that assists more than 30 million students a year with college planning.
According to Campus Explorer, Cal Poly has everything, including its own creamery, organic farm and irrigation research center. "If you're searching for an impressive and more affordable agriculture school, Cal Poly is the place," states the report.
"Our Learn by Doing philosophy gives our students firsthand experience in the field of their interest," said Andrew Thulin, dean of the college. "Our classrooms are living laboratories. Our faculty members partner with students, sharing research opportunities and practical experience needed for successful careers."
Campus Explorer also notes that students can apply for more than 115 scholarships in the College of Agriculture, Food and Environmental Sciences.
Additional colleges on the list include those at Utah State University, Purdue University and Montana State University. According to Campus Explorer, each of these colleges provides the resources that agriculture majors need at a reasonable tuition price.
Cal Poly Agribusiness Fair Program Recognized
The Western Fairs Association, a nonprofit trade association serving the fair industry throughout the U.S. and Canada, recognized the Cal Poly Agribusiness Department Fair Program for 50 years of service to the industry. A big thank you to lecturer Jacky Eshelby for so many years of hard work.
Agribusiness Students Study in Australia
This quarter, Agribusiness Professor Michael McCullough is teaching two agricultural business courses abroad in Australia. Students are spending seven weeks studying in Adelaide, Australia, touring local wineries, visiting Kangaroo Island, exploring a national wildlife park, and experiencing beach life in South Australia.
University of Adelaide's main campus is located in the cultural heart of the city. It is the third oldest university in Australia, and is also one of the group of eight Australian Distinguished Universities. It is a top-ranked, government funded research institute, complete with educational and social facilities. University of Adelaide is said to be a stimulating place to study, combining the beauty of a historic campus, the friendly and accessible nature of Australian society, and the culture and tradition of a well-established university.

Ag Showcase 2016
2016 was another successful year for the annual Ag Showcase.
Ag Showcase gives students the opportunity to directly communicate and network with company representatives from a wide range of fields in the industry.
Ag Showcase not only provides Cal Poly students with opportunities for internships and careers, but also allows companies to showcase their company and meet with potential employees.
Each year we look forward to welcoming back a number of successful alumni. We extend a huge thank you to our industry partners and the ABM/NAMA Club for a great event.
2016 National Grocers Accociation Annual Meeting
Agribusiness Professor Richard Volpe attended the National Grocers Association (NGA) annual meeting in Las Vegas from Feb. 27 to March 2 alongside four agribusiness students. Cal Poly is one of the newest members of the Food Industry University Coalition (FIUC), a group of universities across the U.S. with programs emphasizing the preparation of undergrads for careers in food retail and supply chain management. Each year, the NGA supports travel and lodging for four Cal Poly students to attend the meeting and compete in the Case Study Competition. During the competition, a participating retailer provides a prompt to all schools, which is usually a challenge or objective facing the retailer. This year Davis Food and Drug asked students for ideas as to how they can best enter the digital age of food retail.
The 2016 team is comprised of JT Janowski, Ryan Mekech, Katie Keaton, and Rachel Schumm, all agribusiness majors enrolled in AGB404: Food Retail Management. Our Cal Poly team gave a great presentation and represented Cal Poly well.
NGA, in conjunction with FIUC, held a number of student sessions throughout the three-day meeting, giving students and faculty the opportunity to meet with retail executives in small, intimate sessions to discuss topics such as roles for millennials in food retail and the impacts of government regulation and legislation on retail profits , with plenty of time for questions.
Professor Jay Noel Retires after 26 years at Cal Poly
This year the Agribusiness Department says farewell to another distinguished and beloved Cal Poly professor. Dr. Jay Noel earned a doctorate degree in agricultural economics in 1979 from the University of California, Davis. He has worked as a natural resource and agricultural economics consultant, the chief operating officer for a California rice marketing cooperative and served as a professor and chair of the Cal Poly Agribusiness Department. He is also a past director of the California Institute for the Study of Specialty Crops at Cal Poly.
Noel taught courses in quantitative methods, agricultural cooperative management, agricultural policy, agricultural policy, agricultural economics, agricultural marketing, and research methodology. His research efforts recently focused on the impact that market, economic, and public policies issues have on the California and U.S. agricultural specialty crop sector, food supply risk management issues, financial management, and regulatory policy analysis. His research has been published in peer-reviewed journals, research reports, and presented at conferences and workshops. His research efforts have been used by agribusiness firms, California agricultural commodity groups and government policies officials in evaluating a number of differing California food industry issues.
He looks forward to enjoying retirement with his wife and family. He will be greatly missed at the Agribusiness Department. We thank you for your many distinguished years of service!

"Don't focus on having a great blog. Focus on producing a blog that's great for your readers." Brian Clark This blog presents some of my thoughts related to anything. Do spare some time to read some of my posts and leave a comment. Feel free to email me at firstname.lastname@example.com
Friday, January 20, 2006
Sometimes, I feel why do people get angry...and that too at such petty things..Also, this includes me...as getting angry is not so good or infact it is not at all good. Getting angry can be harmful for your health....as well as it may cause a lot of mental trauma...it may also be a spoil-sport in your relationships..If we are not happy at something...then we tend to get angry and in that event shout like hell...and waste our energy..which is not good...instead we should conserve our energy to use it in some useful work...One should laugh as much as possible...Daily, if you laugh atleast 30 mins then you are using a lot of muscels...which keeps you fresh....I used to get angru very often but now I have atleast learnt how to control my anger...by either involving myself in some other work...or remaining calm...at very pressure situations...and also I practise Yoga...daily..in the morning and that gives me a lot of concentration...

I agree with you Anuj..but you must also agree with me that this controlling the anger thing is much easier said than done.
I also try to control my anger..sometimes by counting upto 100..sometimes by deep breathing..but I have noticed that when I am too angry I can not even concentrate on counting or even deep breathing..maybe it is a matter of practice..but it does not work always for me.
- Anuj Kapoor said...
You are right navneet...its easier said than done..I have also experienced the same..Well, I never counted 100 times but I practice meditation to keep myself relaxed every day for 5-7 mins..but it never pays off. Well, I keep control of my anger but when it becomes excessive, I cant do it...maybe it is in our human nature to become angry..maybe every human being gets angry...but the fact is that it doesnt work for me..and yes it is also true that this anger does a lot of harm to us..

ISLAMABAD, Pakistan — President Pervez Musharraf vowed Saturday that Pakistan will dismantle the structure of extremism in mosques and religious schools that he said has bred violence and perverted Islam in this country. He also banned five militant organizations, saying Pakistanis are tired of a "Kalashnikov culture."
In a 70-minute address to the nation, the four-star general did not make any major concessions on the disputed Himalayan territory of Kashmir, where India and Pakistan are facing each other in a tense standoff, but he said the threat of war could be ended by dialogue. He pledged that he will not allow Pakistani soil to be used for terrorism aimed at India or anywhere else.
Then, switching from Urdu, the national language, to English, Musharraf said: "To the United States I say, as I have said before, Pakistan rejects terrorism in all its forms. You must play an active role" in bringing New Delhi and Islamabad to the negotiating table.
The two countries have already fought two wars over Kashmir, and the military buildup underway there is the biggest in 15 years.


text: This article is a microlevel study of the effects of international warfare on one sugar plantation situated in one of the most highly developed and profitable areas of sugar cultivation in eighteenth-century Saint-Domingue (Haiti) during the War of American Independence (1775 – 83). During this and similar conflicts, which were endemic to the Atlantic economy of the eighteenth century, planters were cut off from the food supplies, capital goods and credit they required; as their produce became temporarily worthless and slaves suffered from malnutrition, planters shifted their efforts to subsistence food production and infrastructural improvements such as irrigation works in the hopes of weathering the effects of international blockade. Yet in reality, as this article shows, these plantations had a very limited capacity to adapt to such circumstances; very quickly, debilitating economic losses and social unrest took hold of these highly profitable, but essentially fragile, operations.

Aspects Of Triathlon Competition
Post: #1
Aspects Of Triathlon Competition
A Navy Commander called Cdr, to put a stop with this. Wherein swimming, cycling and running routines are involved John Collins caused an event.
An athletic event composed of three competitions, triathlon also addresses the... Discover supplementary information on an affiliated wiki - Click here: go here.
It all started with the debate of who's the best- the runners, the swimmers or the competitors? All of us know that they have their personal fortes but during the 1920's, if the first triathlons were used, this theme was buzzing wild in-the sports world.
To place a stop with this, a Navy Commander named Cdr. Where-in cycling, swimming and running routines are involved David Collins caused a meeting.
An athletic event consists of three contests, triathlon also covers the measurement of someone's skill in exploiting his time-off the intervals. Plus the capacity to endure the following stages of the activity.
Though its ear-lier versions were not as firm, modern-day triathlon has now certainly turn into a sport for that hard and the tough-hearted. Considering that the year of its beginning, your competition has morphed in-to classes of events with numerous racers each year competing for the subject of Iron Man.
Because of the variability by which the triathlon has grown, it's expected that it has produced numerous kinds of events, variations and modifications that are in keeping with the general pattern of the competition.
There were a lot of discussions on what form/s should be used yet every thing continues to be susceptible to studies. As proposed from the triathlon governing body nonetheless, all versions, both short courses of total courses, should conform to the requirements.
Because the version of the Sydney Olympic triathlon, several triathlon contests also have conformed with the sequences of courses that Olympics follows. The official Olympic miles are swimming- cycling- 4-0 km, 1500 m and running- 1-0 km.
Apart from the common swim-bike-run courses, there are numerous others that include combinations of those three in different orders and breaks, types and activities.
There are also non-standard versions that allow cross-country skiing plus or outdoor-ice running, skating and mountain biking. Other popular triathlons protect trail running for off-road games. For one more standpoint, please check-out: tyler collins seo share.
For regular events, competitors are permitted to set their shelves an hour prior to the race starts. Holders in the transition region (where in fact the course normally changes from cycle to swim or swim to perform) include things like shoes, apparel and bicycles.
Racers are grouped using various factors such as for example age group, level of knowledge (professional or amateur) and often, on weight basis. Though the latter isn't formally used in Olympic contests. If you have an opinion about shopping, you will maybe need to learn about tumbshots. Age ranges, on the other hand, are set on a 5-year of 10-year basis..

They danced and they twirled
On petals that curled
Blithesome and lighthearted
Ludic souls of nature
Fluttering unaware
Their wings of flight
In another world
Brew rising storms.
When I was young, perhaps in 4th or 5th grade, I remember writing poems on butterflies and eagerly waiting to show them to my father. After those couple of years, I never wrote any poems, high school promised to be more exciting. And it was during these years that I came to learn, again through my father, that as beautiful as their wings can be, they can bring about death and destruction too. A butterflies wings fluttering in one part of the world can bring about a storm/tornado in another part of the world.
Over the years my father reminded me about the poems I used to write. And it is only now that I have finally taken up my pen to write one on Butterflies again.
So...this is for you Papa!

understanding zionism, part 1...
Alfred Lilienthal: In his book, What Price Israel, Lilienthal writes: " Zionism has often been innocently defined as a movement to provide a homeland and refuge for Jews in need of safety in the land where their ancestors lived in ancient times. That definition only sounds good until we realize that almost a million Palestinian Arabs already living there had to be displaced and made homeless in the process. Incredibly, even today so many years later, many Americans and others worldwide still believe that it was 'a land without a people for a people without a land.' It was not! Any real chance for Middle East peace—as well as defusing the reasons behind our present American-led 'war on terror'—must be based on fact and not on intentional or unintentional distortions of past events."
Israel Shahak: "After 1967, when I ceased being just a scientist and became a political being, my first reason was that after 1967 the Israeli aim was to dominate is the Middle East, which every rational human being knows is impossible. My second reason was that there must be a Palestinian state. It can come into being with a minimum of bloodshed, or a maximum of bloodshed. Even if the intifada were defeated, it would only cause a delay."
To give us a bit of an insight into Zionist thinking, Professor Shahak quotes from the soldier's handbook issued by the Israeli Army Central Regional Command: "When our forces come across civilians during a war or in hot pursuit or in a raid, so long as there is no certainty that these civilians are incapable of harming our forces, then according to the Halakkah [legal system of classical Judaism] they may and even should be killed. Under no circumstance should an Arab be trusted, even if he makes the impression of being civilized. In war when our forces storm the enemy, they are allowed, and even enjoined by the Halakkah, to kill even good civilians, that is, civilians who are ostensibly good."
Shahak pointed out that in the religious schools in Israel the supremacy of the Jew as contrasted with other races is emphasized, and children are taught that even the Jewish embryo is different from embryos of non-Jews.
Professor Shahak said this teaching affects Jewish attitudes at all levels of contact between Jews and their neighbors, and even relates to the dead. In his book he notes: "Jews have a tremendous reverence towards Jewish corpses and Jewish cemeteries, but have no respect towards non-Jewish corpses and cemeteries. Thus hundreds of Muslim cemeteries have been utterly destroyed in Israel...but there was great outcry when one Jewish cemetery...was damaged under Jordanian rule."
And this, from Lance Selfa: In 1965, he (Shahak) recalled, "I had personally witnessed an ultra-religious Jew refuse to allow his phone to be used on the Sabbath in order to call an ambulance for a non-Jew who happened to collapse in his Jerusalem neighborhood." Shahak called a meeting with members of the Rabbinical Court of Jerusalem to ask the state-appointed rabbis if the man's refusal to help violated Jewish religious law. The rabbis ruled that the man had acted properly.

The invention concerns a processing device for processing work pieces, which are preferably made at least in part of wood, wooden material, plastics or the like, according to the introductory portion of claim 1.
Processing devices of the above-mentioned type are widely used in the furniture and building component industry as well as other industrial branches when processing and manufacturing work pieces. For example, these machines can be used for machining, coating, edge gluing or various other finishing processes. The processing units of these machines are usually built upon a machine bed, which traditionally is made of steel or sheet steel.
The increasing processing speeds and the dynamic load of the processing machines associated therewith bring about that the oscillation characteristics of the machine bed supporting the components of the machine continuously gain in importance. Against this background it has been proposed to manufacture the machine bed from mineral casting (also known as polymer concrete) that is a mixture of a synthetic binder and additives (see for example DE 10 2005 736 A1).
However, it turned out that such mineral casting has a high tensile and burst strength, but is laborious and comparatively expensive to produce.
It is, therefore, an object of the present invention to provide a processing device of the generic type, the machine bed of which is adapted for dynamic loads and, at the same time, is easy and cheap to produce.
According to the invention, this object is achieved by a processing device for processing workpieces that may be made at least partially of wood, wooden materials, plastics or the like. The processing device may include a machine bed and at least one processing unit connected to the machine bed. The machine bed may include a base body made at least in sections from a curable compound. The base body and/or at least a part of the processing unit may be made at least in sections of cementitious concrete, in particular fibre concrete.
The invention is based upon the notion to resort to materials that are completely novel in the field of mechanical engineering. Against this background the invention provides that in the processing device of the generic type the base body and/or at least a part of the processing unit (or alternatively other suitable components of the processing device) consist at least in sections (partially) of cementitious concrete, in particular fibre concrete. The inventors have, therefore, recognized that the desired dynamic properties of the processing machine can surprisingly be achieved also with this material hitherto used only in the construction sector. In this way, for the first time in the field of processing machines a material can be applied that is easily and economically available and can, moreover, be processed with little effort. Moreover, the concrete has a high durability.
In the framework of the present invention, concrete is to be understood as a cementitious concrete manufactured according to DIN 1045, for example. This can be normal-strength, high-strength or even ultrahigh-strength concrete having a burst strength of 200 MPa or more. In these cases the concrete will comprise several partly synthetic additives, wherein mainly cement continues to be used as binder. Further, within the framework of the present invention the concrete may be provided, if necessary, with un-tensioned or pre-tensioned reinforcement elements that may, for example, consist of steel, but also of other materials such as fiber composites or the like.
According to the invention, the base body of the processing device on the one hand, but also at least a part of the processing unit of the processing device, on the other hand, may be made of concrete. In both cases the appeal of the concrete is its high rigidity (stiffness) and its high self-weight so that it is eminently suitable to serve as base and guide for movable machine parts. For example, the base body of the processing device can thus serve as guide for a dynamically moved arm or a dynamically moved portal. Alternatively or additionally an arm or a portal as partial processing unit may, for example, serve to guide one or more mandrel units or other processing aggregates for their dynamic movement. Thanks to the manufacture of the components from concrete, both cases result in little deformation so that very high dynamics or very precise processing is made possible.
According to a further embodiment of the invention, it is envisioned that the base body and/or at least a part of the processing unit consist at least partly of fiber concrete. In the framework of the present invention, fiber concrete is to be understood as cementitious concrete to which a plurality of fibers has been admixed during manufacture, which can consist of a wide variety of materials and which may comprise a wide variety of materials (for instance steel, plastics, fiber composites etc.) and lengths (for example several millimeters up to several centimeters). The manufacture of the fiber concrete may, for example, be effected according to the construction standard DIN 1045. In this way, the strength of the concrete, on the one hand, may be increased and its crack susceptibility may be lowered so that both the static and dynamic properties and the durability can be improved. Moreover, it becomes possible to reduce the necessity of additional un-tensioned or pre-tensioned reinforcement elements or to renounce such structural (load-bearing) reinforcement elements completely. Thereby not only the manufacture of the concrete components is drastically simplified, but also completely novel geometric shapes of the respective concrete components are made possible.
According to an embodiment of the invention it is further envisioned that the base body is formed in several parts such that it has a base portion substantially comprising cementituous concrete, and at least one connection portion (adapter portion) subsequently joined thereto. Thereby the base body is easy to produce because no complicated single body having a correspondingly complicated formwork (shuttering) has to be produced. Rather, it becomes possible to prepare single parts having a comparatively simple geometry and to subsequently assemble them to a complex body.
Here, the individual components may be prefabricated as in a modular system and may then be assembled to give a desired base body according to the particular requirements. Thus, simplified planning and high flexibility of the production process result, wherein the production may be performed with simple means, in particular, simple formworks having a constant geometry.
Moreover, a configuration of the base body in several parts makes it possible to minimize or to take account of time-dependent deformations of the concrete (for instance due to shrinkage), for example by initially storing the individual parts for a certain time and precisely joining them to each other only after a large proportion of the time-dependent deformations have terminated.
Within the framework of the present invention, the at least one connection portion of the base body may be made of a variety of materials, wherein, having regard to the above-mentioned advantages, it has turned out to be purposeful that at least one connection portion is formed by a concrete component. According to a preferred embodiment of the invention, it is alternatively or additionally envisioned that at least one connection portion is formed by a metal element such as a metal profile. Hereby the connection portion may be provided with a still higher dimensional precision and strength without requiring a special post-processing. Against this background, it is particularly preferred that at least one metal element is configured as guide element or guide profile so as to guide a translatable arm or other mobile parts of the device, for example. Further, the provision of a connection portion made of steel allows possible time-dependent deformations of the concrete (for instance due to shrinkage) to be eliminated at least locally if this is necessary to achieve a high dimensional or positional precision, for example.
Within the framework of this concept of a multi-part base body, a further embodiment of the invention provides that the parts of the base body are glued and/or teethed (geared) together (that is, they are joined together with positive locking in at least one direction). Thus, not only a significantly simplified production and a high stability of the multipart base body result, but by providing a glue joint it is possible to achieve a compensation of the dimensional tolerances, which may occur in concrete components.
According to a further embodiment of the invention it is additionally envisioned that the base body has at least one, preferably at least two connection portions such that the base body has a cross section which is chosen to be L-shaped, U-shaped or triangular, for example.
A configuration of the base body with at least one bracket-like connection portion makes it possible that the base body has a simple construction but is utilizable in many ways. Thus, in a first rotational position (for example connecting portion or arm up), the base body may advantageously be used for console machines, and in another rotational position (for example connecting portion or arm down), may advantageously be used for desktop machines. This is particularly true if the base body has a U-shaped or triangular cross-section, because in this case the number of necessary add-on components is reduced and the rigidity of the base body is increased.
Moreover, according to a further embodiment of the invention, it is envisioned that the base body has at least one steel profile. Such a steel profile may fulfil multiple functions within the framework of the invention by being able to serve as guide, support surface, load transmission region and flexural tension element for the respective base body. Herein it is particularly preferred that the steel profile is set in concrete in order to ensure a non-slip and permanent load transmission between steel profile and concrete of the base body.
Moreover, according to a further embodiment of the invention it is envisioned that the processing unit has a beam-like guide means, in particular an arm or a portal, which is made at least in sections (partially) of concrete, as has already been explained above. Herein it is particularly preferred that the guide means comprises at least one steel profile which may be set into the concrete, for example. The provision of the steel profile may contribute to optimise the strength of the guide means and, moreover, create improved loading points, because the steel profile offers enhanced possibilities for screwing, welding or otherwise attaching aggregates or the like thereon. Further, the steel profile contributes to minimise time-dependent deformations of the concrete and provide a guide means having a high dimensional precision.
The present disclosure provides a method for producing a base body. It is characterised in that the base body is produced by a base portion of concrete, in particular fibre concrete, and a separate connecting portion. Herein, the connecting portion is aligned in a reference position with respect to the base portion and is joined, in particular glued to the base portion. Thereby, the above described advantages of a modular system can be achieved in a particularly simple way, wherein in the case of gluing the glued joint advantageously allows tolerance compensation.
According to a further embodiment of the inventive method it is envisioned that the at least one connecting portion is aligned by means of an alignment station and is kept ready for joining with the base portion. Thereby, it is possible to achieve a particularly high dimensional precision of the finished base body, wherein the alignment station is particularly advantageous for gluing the single components together by providing sufficient time for the glue to cure.
Moreover, according to a further embodiment it is envisioned that the base portion is moved towards the at least one aligned connecting portion upon joining. This enables a particularly precise alignment of the respective connecting portion and a simple and error-free preparation (for example glue application) of the connecting portion.

FIG. 2 schematically illustrates a method of the invention for producing the processing device shown in FIG. 1;
FIG. 3 schematically illustrates the method of FIG. 2 for producing the processing device shown in FIG. 1;
FIG. 4 schematically shows a perspective view of a processing device according to a second embodiment of the present invention;
FIG. 5 schematically shows a perspective view of the processing devices shown in FIG. 4.
In the following, preferred embodiments of the present invention will be described in detail by reference to the accompanying drawings.
A processing device 1 as preferred embodiment of the present invention is schematically illustrated in the perspective view of FIG. 1. The shown processing device 1 is, in the present embodiment, a CNC machining centre, although the present invention is not restricted thereto and various stationary or throughfeed machines may be configured according to the invention as well.
In the present embodiment, the processing device 1 serves for processing workpieces (not shown in FIG. 1) that are, for example, made of wood, wooden materials, plastics or the like, such as those used frequently in the field of the furniture and construction components industries. To this end the processing device 1 comprises a processing unit 4, which in the present embodiment is formed by a travelling column or arm 6 and one or more processing aggregates (not shown) provided thereon. Herein, the arm 6 may for example be made of steel, but also comprise concrete, in particular fibre concrete into which a steel profile may be embedded.
The travelling column 6 is translatable along a machine bed 10 which will be described in more detail in the following. Several consoles 8 (only one of which is shown in FIG. 1) are arranged on the machine bed in order to support and hold the workpieces to be processed (not shown), for example by means of vacuum and/or other jigs (clamping devices). Here, the consoles 8 may be adjustable along the machine bed 10 in a known manner.
The machine bed 10 comprises a base body 12 that is made, in the present embodiment, mainly of concrete, preferably fibre concrete, as defined initially by referring to DIN 1045.
In the present embodiment, the geometry of the base body 12 is substantially U-shaped so that the base many 12 has a planar base portion 14 and two shanks (sides) 16, 18 provided under an angle thereto. The angle between the base portion and the shanks may be varied in many ways so that through a corresponding inclination of the shank 18, for example, also a triangular cross-section or several other cross-sections may be produced.
In the present embodiment, the base body 12 comprises two steel profiles 20 which are set in the concrete of the base body 12. To that end the steel profiles 20 may be provided with suitable anchoring means such as head bolts, loops or the like. Here, as can be seen from FIG. 1, the steel profiles 20 are arranged so that they serve as support surface for the base body 12. Moreover, the steel profiles 20 impart additional stability and crack safety to the base body 12.
Moreover, in the present embodiment, the base body 12 comprises two further steel profiles 20′ which are attached to the shanks 16 and 18, respectively, as connecting portions. The steel profiles 20′ are arranged in such a way in the region of the free end of the shank 16 or 18 that they can serve as guide for a translational movement of a travelling column 6 or other movable parts. In the present embodiment, these are glued to the shanks 16 and 18, respectively, in order to ensure the necessary precise positioning of the steel profiles 20′.
A preferred embodiment of the method of the invention for producing the above-described base body 12 will be described in the following by referring to FIGS. 2 and 3. First, the base portion 14 with its shank or connecting portions 16 and 18 is manufactured from concrete, in particular fibre concrete. Further, the steel profile 20′ and a further steel profile 20″ that may serve as additional guide, for instance, are prepared and aligned in a reference position by means of an alignment station 30. To that end, the alignment station 30 comprises a plurality of gripping elements 32, by means of which the steel profiles 20′, 20″ can releasably be kept ready in a reference position. Here, the reference position refers for example to the desired position and the desired travel of the travelling column 4.
Subsequently, a suitable glue is applied to the steel profiles 20′, 20″ on the side facing the base portion 14 in order to move now the base portion 14 with shanks 16, 18 towards the steel profiles 20′, 20″ (for example by means of rollers 34 shown in FIGS. 2 and 3) and to press it thereon. Thus, the steel profiles 20′, 20″ are joined securely and in a precisely defined position to the concrete parts 14, 16, 18.
As soon as the glue is cured, the steel profiles 20′, 20″ can be disengaged from the alignment station 30 so that the alignment station 30 is now ready for the next gluing operation.
Although not shown in the figures, other bonding means in addition to the glue joint may also be employed, such as screws, bolts or the like.
Although also not shown in FIGS. 1 to 3, the base body 12 may also be formed from several parts, for instance by joining shanks 16 and/or 18 subsequently to the base portion 14. In this case, in order to produce the base body 12, the individual base body portions 14, 16 and 18 are at first prepared in the respective formworks, with the formworks preferably being reusable formworks having a high-strength formwork facing made, for instance, of steel or the like. Here, like in the embodiment shown in FIG. 1, the steel profiles 20 may already be set into the base portion 14, although they may also be subsequently attached, in particular glued, to the respective components.
Then, the joining surfaces are prepared for the subsequent joining operation and are provided with a glue layer in order to join now the components 14, 16 and 18 to each other. For a precise and secure connection of the individual components an alignment station may also be employed, as was described above by reference to FIGS. 2 and 3. The individual components may thus be held in a desired reference position, with the glue layer then providing tolerance compensation. In this way, a base body having highly precise dimensions may be produced, which otherwise can be realised only by means of structural steel work.
Then, the components 14, 16 and 18 may additionally be screwed together or non-positively joined in another way, although this is not absolutely necessary. In the opposite case it is to be observed that instead of gluing the single components 14, 16, 18 together, other joining techniques may be employed as well, such as mere screwing and/or another non-positive or positive joining of the components, etc.
Although also not shown in the figures, the base body 12 according to the invention may also be arranged standing "head down" so as to result in a desktop machine. The base body 12 according to the invention may thus be employed variously and flexibly so that a great variety of machines may be produced with a single formwork or a single set of formworks.
Further, within the framework of the present embodiment it is also possible to set up the base body 12 in a different alignment, for instance with the base portion 14 pointing down and the shanks 22 being aligned vertically. In this case, a suitable guide for a travelling column or also for any other type of machine construction may be attached at the free end of the shanks 22. Further, it may be expedient to design the base portion 14 also in this embodiment to be at least partially hollow or to have dimensions so as to achieve an optimum ratio between weight, rigidity and oscillation behavior.
The machine bed that is made at least partially from concrete may also be a machine bed extended subsequently by concrete (for instance by gluing, screwing etc).
The second preferred embodiment of the processing device according to the invention is schematically shown in a perspective view in FIGS. 4 and 5, wherein these figures centre on the configuration of the base body 12. The base body 12 shown in FIGS. 4 and 5 is characterised in that it is made "in one pour". Not only are the base portion 14 and the shanks 16, 18 made integrally of concrete or fibre concrete, but also the steel profiles 20, 20′ are directly set in concrete in the base portion 14 or the shanks 16, 18. To that end the steel profiles 20 are formed as U-profiles having anchoring means such as a head bolts (not shown) or the like so as to achieve a direct bond. In contrast, the profiles (connecting portions) 20′ are formed as rectangular box-section slabs. In order to allow the concrete to enter the interior of the box-section slab and to bond correspondingly with the concrete, the steel profiles 20′ of the present embodiment are provided with radial through-holes (not shown). Here, FIG. 5 shows the base body 12 in the position it takes when the concrete is poured into the formwork. FIG. 4, in contrast, shows the possible position of the base body 12 as a machine bed. It is to be observed, however, that the base body 12 may also be used as a machine bed in the position shown in FIG. 5, with this position being adapted primarily for so-called desktop machines.
For all embodiments it is to be observed that the base body 12 may also be provided with a variety of through-holes, conduits, anchoring points etc. in order to further optimise the functionality of the base body 12, for instance with respect to weight, rigidity, material usage, routing of data, compressed air or other conduits, attaching of machine parts, etc.

Just wondering if anybody has any insight on when / if I should stop exercising? I am 34 weeks now and still feel great. I usually do about 20-30 min on the bike at the gym followed by a few light weights ad some stretching .. I get a pretty good sweat and usually feel great after ( as long as i rehydrate!) Can I continue until I go into labor? ( or until I am too uncomfortable/tired to bother) anything I should do different in the last couple weeks?
I worked out the morning before I delivered. If you still feel good keep going! Obviously listen to your body if you're exhausted or start having pains slow down / stop. Keep up the good work! It does get harder as you become bigger but I felt more and more satisfaction with each workout because of that fact.
I worked out until the day before I delivered. I actually got on the treadmill on my due date and tried to go into labor....she was born a week and a day later....
Just listen to your body and do what's comfortable. I was crossfitting up until 36 weeks because that was when I noticed workouts were getting harder and I was running out of modifications or the modifications didn't really feel like a workout to me anymore. I briskly walked 2-3 miles every other day for my last 3 weeks of pregnancy. I would've loved to do it everyday if I didn't feel so much pressure down there after.
If you feel no discomfort after your workouts, I would keep going especially if you're like me and love working out. Once you deliver that baby, they tell you to take it easy for at least 6 weeks depending on how you deliver. I see my OB next week and can't wait! I've been itching to start working out again!
I worked out at 6 am the morning of the day my water broke at 5 pm
I worked out at 6 am the morning of the day my water broke at 5 pm
I should add my son was only 3 days early
As long as you are still feeling good there shouldn't be an issue. I worked out until the day before - was jogging for 30 min on the treadmill daily. Went for a walk the day I delivered. So happy I kept it up! Hoping the recovery is easier :) just delivered this weekend.
I did Zumba up until about 2 weeks before I delivered. I only stopped because of my back pain, but I could've kept going as I'm a regular Zumba participant! With this pregnancy, I intend to do more yoga and continue with my Zumba because they're both good ways to stay healthy physically.
Agree with everyone else, keep going as long as you (and your doctor) are comfortable with it! With my pregnancy, I was at the gym until 38/39 weeks. I swelled badly towards the end and my doctor didn't want me doing any stationary cardio exercises for more than 5-10 minutes at a time. I swam a little bit but by that point I wasn't motivated to make it to the gym and I just walked laps around my backyard with breaks to stop and put my feet up. Baby came on his due date and labor and pushing went great, and my recovery wasn't hard at all. Good luck!
Thanks everyone. The reason I asked here and not y midwife is because here in Italy they don't want you doing anything .. Women don't work out at all let alone when they're pregnant haha
I danced,walked,lifted weights until I just didn't have the energy which was about two weeks before I delivered. (I played football until I was about 7 months but only with family & very carefully.) Most docs will inform you if you shouldn't,otherwise they encourage it. It gets labor going & helps it go faster.
Agree Workout to your comfort level. I was at the gym day of delivery with both. That being said, be nice to yourself. Take it easy if your body tells you to do so.
I did the stair master for 20 minutes at a mid to high level at 9pm labor started at 1am and I had the baby at 7am.
Why We ArchiveWhat to Expect has thousands of open discussions happening each day. We work hard to share our most timely and active conversations with you.

Parking Kong
It occured to me the other day who will reap the real windfall from King Kong and its mammoth running time: Parking lot owners. While exhibitors have to deal with fewer numbers of shows each day, parking lot owners are going to rake in the cash since most movie theaters (at least in the L.A. area) only validate for three to four hours. And with Kong being the sort of blockbuster that requires you to get to the theater at least an hour early... you don't have to be Summer Roberts to do the math.

A couple of weeks ago, the coalition presented its latest Budget. This was quickly followed by the usual hyperbolic headlines based on the big news from the Chancellor's speech. This year, all the attention was focused on the granny tax, which has caused a fair amount of uproar.
But fast-forward a couple of weeks and the dust is starting to settle, giving us a clearer picture of what the real implications are.
It is at times like this that it is handy to have an expert on hand who has seen it all before and knows where to find the devil amongst all the detail. And luckily for me, I work with just such an expert – Steve Bee.
Having discussed the budget and its implications with the pensions guru himself, it is clear that the big news has been overlooked. The granny tax will not actually be taking any money from anyone and will no doubt be condemned to the same pit as all the other long-forgotten pensions changes which so riled everyone when they were announced.
The really big news is the fact that we are starting to see the end of the granny stealth tax. It is not something that is being widely reported because I doubt many of you even knew it existed. It is a very real tax that we have been living with for decades. It relates to means-tested handouts, mostly savings credit and pension credit, that have been available to pensioners who have been persistent enough to claim them.
However, many have found that claiming them meant giving up some of the real value of their pension. It has also meant that some savers have been left in exactly the same financial position in retirement as their non-saving neighbours.
I doubt anyone reading this would think for one moment that this was fair and yet the headlines highlighting this outrage have been few and far between.
According to Bee, there finally appears to be light at the end of the tunnel. In the past, many of the older people who have lost the value of some or all of their pension savings have lost the value of their state second pension entitlements.
However, the new pension reforms introduce automatic enrolment into the equation. Automatically enrolled employees may opt out of the pension schemes that their employers put them in. It could have made sense to do so if you knew for sure that you would become entitled to income support in retirement.
The Budget has signalled that we will be implementing a decent, subsistence-level basic state pension. At last.
Our previous system meant that a pound saved in a pension did not make the saver a pound better off than a non-saver which is just ludicrous.
Hopefully, for next year's Budget, we can shift past the sound bites and truly see the implications, because for once, they are actually pretty good. It is a shame we were not better informed of this.

The activity was sweeping the Salmin Amour road, from the Iveco house going down to the Fattan house and we also passed by the Skyway university campus.

Back when Justice dropped their debut album last year, it was a smash; brilliant hard electro that beckoned to the big beat days of the likes of Cyrstal Method and the Chemical Brothers. They did what no electronic act could do for a decade - they made an album the rockers love to D.A.N.C.E. to.
While that record was listened to from front-to-back last summer trillions of times by myself and everyone I knew, one track took the longest to grow on me.
Why? I think at first it was the vocals. It sounded like a house song (and I detest house music, more than I detest Bon Jovi or Nickleback...house music is the bane of my existence). After a few more focused listens I realized the beauty of this song lays in the vocals themselves. Mehdi Pinson sings with perfect nonchalantness and drawl. He doesn't give a fuck and thats what makes him "cool". It's not only his style of singing that makes the track though; the way Justice tweeks, splices and cuts his vocals around the break beats behind them is nothing short of legendary.
Below I've provided three remixes of what is arguably the most remixed track off the record. The Surkin remix I find most impressive as it stays true to the original while adding a beautiful string part and chops the vocals masterfully into little snippets of pleasure.

you've nicked this post and tracks from You Can Call Me Pelski you slim-ball.

touche - even the title is the same.
but what's with the "slim-ball" putdown? that's a totally different insult from calling someone a "slime-ball".
- 12:42 pm, April 08, 2008
hey kids, don't "slime ball" each other. why does it matter what tag you but on the record, everyone knows what it sounds like. Surkin is great, but the best version i ve heard of DVNO is the one by Transformer Di Roboter. its a bigger hit than the original.

Fromme D K, Daniell J: Neurolinguistic Programming examined: imagery, sensory mode, and communication.
Journal of Counseling Psychology 31(3), 1984.
Abstract: Neurolinguistic Programming (NLP) assumptions were tested by examining intercorrelations among response times of 32 male and 32 female Introductory Psychology volunteers for extracting visual, auditory, and kinesthetic information from alphabetic images. Large (r = .67 to .74, p<0.0001) positive intercorrelations were obtained, the only outcome not compatible with NLP. Next, no support was found for the NLP-derived hypothesis that subjects showing differential ability across sensory modes would choose word phrases reflecting their preferred sensory mode. Finally, no support was found for the NLP-derived hypothesis that subjects matched for visualization ability would communicate Bender-Gestalt design information more accurately than would mismatched subjects. Regardless of who transmitted the design information, good visualizers were significantly (p<.05) better than were poor visualizers in reproducing designs from verbal information.
