The Godeater has defeated the Hosts of Heaven, the Armies of Hell, and the warriors of Valhalla. The end of all things is here, unless Ernie can destroy something that can't be destroyed. It's the fearsome finale to Justin Jordan's Chaos Comics epic... and perhaps the most senses-shattering event in Ernest Fairchild's un-life!

You would have had to be asleep or absent to not know the last half of last week was spent in a Harry Potter frenzy... Thursday night was the midnight movie attendance... and then... a bit of a...
It's funny how you can crave something and not know what it is. I needed some downtime.
I turned on my computer to check email, but think I spent half hour tops...
My neighbor came over in the evening and invited me to sit poolside and share my excitement about the movie... That was nice too... quiet company and a cocktail...
And then Saturday I decided it MUST be done.
See, there is a downside to writing longhand... it is how I must write at least a part of my stuff... my brain flows through my fingers and a medium point pen onto lined paper... I can't DO emotion, tension... the good stuff... on a screen... but it all has to be TYPED.
[note: just recognized a use for voice recognition software. I've known I couldn't WRITE that way--the brain not flowing out the MOUTH even remotely, but bloody hell if I couldn't TYPE that way... reading what I wrote...]
So Saturday and Sunday I typed about 8000 words... previously written mostly, but I am not the world's speediest typist, and I DO do some editing and fact checking.
So Second Garden Cozy is TYPED and hopefully by the time you read this, my hard copy edit is done with the exception of a few scenes I have noted that need writing--my goal is Saturday for entering what I have and writing what is missing.
Can I tell you a secret? This is a big deal, but it's real hush hush... stop reading now if you're a blabbermouth.
Last Monday my editor emailed me requesting my synopsis for the first Garden Cozy... because TUESDAY THE ART DEPARTMENT MET TO DISCUSS MY COVER!!! SQUEEEEEE!
And I was told my title... but that I really can't share yet, but it wasn't just THIS title, but the next, plus the theme... I'm so excited and I so wish I could share... You totally will be the first to know! (erm, other than the Burrow, but you know... they are practically ME they're so close... in fact it's possible they know already....)
|And here is proof someone lives there.

When criticized for their claims' lack of falsifiability, apologists often justify their (ab)use of pure reason by claiming that one only needs to find a logical contradiction in order to show that their claim is false. The normal examples trotted out are married bachelors and square circles. Both are fundamentally deceptive, but for different reasons.
Or, TLDR: How intellectually honest is contradiction as a falsification criteria, coming from someone who believes that a person lived who was completely human and completely divine, simultaneously?
The ideas of marriage and bachelorhood are rules in a societal game. Of course, under those rules, you cannot be both married and a bachelor. That's no more remarkable than saying that, in chess, you can't be a rook and a king at the same time. That just tells us about the logical consistency of the game-world, not anything about contradictions in general. Further, and ironically, with the battle over marriage equality evolving, it's currently possible to be married in one state and viewed as a bachelor in another: a married bachelor. Squares and circles are also rules in a language (which are, in a very real way, forms of games) which we use to model reality. In this case, the dialect of mathematics that focuses on geometry. Mathematics is a formal, objective language in which we can describe entities and their relationships. And in mathematics, the number of interior degrees in a figure is bound by an inflexible set of rules.
So math would seem to be a win for the apologists – math models the world, we see circles, we see triangles, we couldn't have a shape that was mathematically described as both. And that's true. But it's not true if a system is in superposition. If you give me a neon sign that's a blue square, and one that's red circle, and I put a current into superposition such that it has a 50/50 chance to go through either neon sign? Well, then until someone collapses the wave, it exists as both a square and a circle, equally so for both, simultaneously.
Now, an apologist could revise their errors by saying that non-contradiction only applies post wave collapse phenomena, but that puts a huge caveat of "only in certain circumstances", into the "Law" of non-contradiction. Or an apologist might argue that it's not a contradiction for something to be both itself and its mutually exclusive binary opposite, simultaneously. And they'd thereby abandon the concept of contradiction, itself, along with both falsification and verification.
The Law of Non-Contradiction, properly understood, only deals with constructs of pure logic. It holds absolute dominion over deductive proofs, where its use is required. And deduction does map amazingly well onto reality, as long as we haven't made a mistake. But a proof must have both validity and soundness in order to be worth much. Without empirical verification, the LoNC is simply a statement that, well, thingz's thingz, and they do stuff, and they don't do stuff they don't do, and they aint stuff that they aint. With empirical verification, we can actually discover if the premises we're claiming are true, are. With empirical verification, we can define and model a system's mechanics and dynamics and identify, with a very high degree of confidence, what things are and what they act like.
The whole point behind the apologist tactic, however, is to divert debate off onto this rabbit trail. The next gambit would be to claim that non-contradiction can't be falsified, because if you show a situation in which it doesn't apply, then you showed it contradicted the Law of Non-Contradiction. And therefore you haven't actually falsified the LoNC, because you falsified it by showing that it contradicted with reality, and therefore you relied on contradiction as your falsification criteria. So if the LoNC is true, then it's true. And if the LoNC is false, well then it's still true. Of course.
But without recourse to objective evidence, we're left with nothing more than mere claims about what can or cannot constitute something's identity and/or behavior.
Humans are mortal. Deities are immortal. If someone was both fully human and fully a deity, they would be both fully immortal and fully mortal, which is a contradiction. Therefore, that story's false. Right? Right?
Non-Contradiction, indeed.

That he, as a designer, can take an global idea or image and convey it while still incorporating the rapidly dying origins of classic American fashion is pretty amazing. It's no wonder MJ has earned himself his third Womenswear Designer of the Year Award from CFDA. For the resort collection, Jacobs took the so lately a-la-mode idea of "1960's Vacation in St. Tropez" and transformed it into a modern day searing tailoring and point-on classic Chanel references while still retaining his ever original Marc Jacobs style.

Performance Data Snarf of MESI Shared And Exclusive Data

Performance Data Snarf of MESI Shared And Exclusive Data
Disclosed is a method that combines the performance data "snarf" of Modified Exclusive Shared Invalid (MESI) data "snarf" to increase system performance.
In order to maintain cache coherency, agents in muti-processor systems must own the data before they are modified. At times, other Front-side-bus (FSB) agents own the data or have a modified version of the data in their private cache.
The agent acquires the data by using a read for ownership cycle. Since all the agents in a coherent system need to monitor all the data transfers on the FSB, the agent that has modified the data interrupts the requesting agent's cycle and indicates that the most recent copy of the data resides in its cache. This signal is a cache hit to a modified line. Instead of getting the data from memory, the agent that modified the data drives the modified data onto the FSB, and the agent that is requesting the data "snarfs" it directly from the FSB. The original agent that modified the data no longer owns the data; this agent marks the cache line invalid.
The agent that just "snarfed" the data owns it, and that cache line is in the exclusive state. Since the agent that performed the read for ownership intends to modify the data, the data will transition from the exclusive state to the modified state when the data is modified. Ownership of the cache line is transferred from one FSB agent to another. Typically, at this point the north bridge forwards the modified data that the first agent drove on the FSB to the memory controller. The memory controller then writes the modified data into memory. This type of cycle is required to maintain cache coherency in a multiprocessor system.
In newer multiprocessor system, the process follows the same steps until the north bridge forwards the data to the memory controller. The performance improvement arises if the cycle ends when the data is "snarfed" on the FSB. Though the data was not written to memory, the system still has one copy of the data that is current. The performance increase is a result of not using any memory bandwidth for writing the data to memory.

The Cosmic Puppets by Philip K. Dick: (A Book Review)
Today we're considering the novel by science fiction writer, Philip K. Dick. It is a paperback version of The Cosmic Puppets. It is a very brief 143-pages, first published in 1957. The publisher is Vintage Books, a division of Random House, Inc.
The first thing to say is that although the book is short, it does not feel short. That is not to say that it is a ponderous read, because that is rarely the case with Philip K. Dick fiction. I suppose I'm just saying that it "punches above its weight," as it were, in packing a bigger "punch" than its brevity might suggest. In other words, I think I'm just saying that despite its mere 143 pages, there is a lot of there there.
The second thing to say is that although Mr. Dick was primarily known as a science fiction writer, per se, he did write other kinds of books. He produced a body of work that does not easily fit under any single label.
Strictly speaking, The Cosmic Puppets is a work of fantasy, not science fiction, per se. It is not science fiction because the imagined alternate reality is not sustained by an imaginatively augmented scientific/technological apparatus. The story is also not, as is characteristic of science fiction, forward-projected in time. That is to say, the story is not set in an imagined distant future, which might give us such scientific and technological goodies.
The story is set nowhere else but good old Earth---Millgate, Virginia, in fact.
The novel is a work of fantasy because the imagined alternate reality is a world sustained by purely by "magic." As I said, the tale is in no way forward-projected in time. Ninety-nine percent of the characters are perfectly ordinary human beings, most of whom have undergone extraordinary transformations, at the hand of one extraordinary being.
I would call this story "contemporary fantasy," because the imagined alternate reality was a world sustained purely by "magic," set in what was the "present" for Philip K. Dick, when he wrote the book, the 1950s, and because the vast majority of characters are ordinary human beings. There are exactly three extraordinary beings in this novel, all of which, for a big chunk of the story adopt the guises of ordinary human beings.
There will appear to be another set of extraordinary beings, the "Wanderers," who will turn out to be ordinary human beings. Here's how you can start to think of the "Wanderers." Remember the Nicole Kidman movie, "The Others"? Just recall that there was a question as to who were the "ghosts" and who were the living mortals; who were the haunting and who were the haunted.
This book highlights Mr. Dick's career-long, basic thematic concerns such as: What is reality? How do we know 'God' is real? As in many other of his novels, one can see the profound influence that Hinduism had apparently had on his ideas. The Cosmic Puppets is also a book that explores the fluidity of personal identity.
The basic story revolves around Ted Barton. On his way home from vacation he is compelled to stop over, on the way, at his old home town of Millgate, Virginia. However, nothing---and I mean nothing---is as he remembers it. Indeed, in this upside down reality "Ted Barton" had died of scarlet fever when he was nine-years-old. Barton is thus compelled to investigate.
This story reminded me slightly of the Biblical story of Job. In the Genesis story God gave the Devil permission to test Job's fate by putting the man through various hardships, trials and tribulations, so long as Job is not killed. What this story reminded me of even more was the movie Dark City (1998), starring Rufus Sewell and Kiefer Sutherland.
You may recall that "Dark City" was about aliens who studied humanity. The alien beings took an Earth city and transplanted it to their world. Their approach to studying humanity was to keep switching the personal and professional roles they played. A police chief will be put to sleep and wake up the next day a baker; a baker will go to sleep and wake up as mayor of the city. And so on and so forth.
The religion of Zoroastrianism makes an appearance in this novel. The two supernatural antagonists are the good god, Ormazd, and the evil god, Ahriman. The story seems like a combination of the Job Biblical story and the movie Dark City.
Ahriman has put a veil of illusion over the town of Millgate, Virginia. This veil of illusion---known by those in the loop as the 'Change'---has altered the physical landscape of the town (buildings and businesses disappear and new, other ones appear out of thin air. Almost nothing is where its supposed to be and none of the people are exactly whom they are supposed to be.
Let me leave it there because I don't want to give too much of the story away. If you like Philip K. Dick's work and you like the way he pursues the themes of reality and identity, you will definitely enjoy this quite concise novel.
Thank you for reading.

Not so fast, Taiwan – here's why a referendum opposing gay marriage is a stupid idea
By Ernest Leung, 17, La Salle College
On May 24, Taiwan's Constitutional Court ruled that homosexual marriage will be recognised in the island. This made Taiwan the first Asian country to legalise homosexual or same-sex marriage.
The court said that the law states that all citizens of Taiwan, no matter their sexual orientation or religion, ought to enjoy the right to marriage. The legislature now has two years either to amend this law or to enact laws addressing same-sex couples.
While gay rights supporters rejoiced, the anti-homosexual marriage camp called the ruling the most shameful judgement in Taiwanese history. They are now seeking a referendum to overturn the ruling. But do they stand a chance? After all, there's nothing unconstitutional with this judgement. We can't hold same-sex marriage to a different standard than heterosexual marriages.
Sex education in Hong Kong: the things you need to know but are too afraid to ask
And why should a referendum be held anyway? The rights of the LGBT community to marry shouldn't be determined by people who aren't a part of that community. It's not like it affects them personally. If we allow the majority – in this case, heterosexual people – to decide the rights of the minority, then that minority risks marginalisation, and being stigmatised. That minority, in this case homosexual people, then have to hide who they really are and live with the fear of being discriminated against.
Anti-gay rights campaigners are claiming the legalisation of same-sex marriage will result in even more depraved acts being committed that will destroy core family values and the fabric of society itself. However, there is no correlation between homosexuality and these acts. Assuming homosexual people are immoral – purely because they are homosexual – is discrimination.
HK's closet mindset on LGBT issues
Let's say we were to assume that homosexuality is a bad thing – which it isn't – then a referendum still wouldn't be the best way to overturn a judgement.
The Taiwanese people are, on the whole, becoming more liberal. People are generally more supportive of same-sex marriage now, and the likely outcome of any gay rights referendum would probably favour same-sex marriage. And it's not like anti-gay rights supporters would accept that result either. What's needed is for anti-gay rights supporters to realise society is progressing and moving on without them. If they want to keep up, they need to rid themselves of conservative values that have no place in modern society.

Richard Sidney Dykstra, Shannath L Merbs, Beatriz E Munoz, Emily W Gower; Evaluating the Utility of Postoperative Photos as Educational Tools in Trichiasis Surgery Training. Invest. Ophthalmol. Vis. Sci. 2015;56(7 ):137.
Download citation file:
© ARVO (1962-2015); The Authors (2016-present)
In trachomatous trichiasis (TT) surgery, poor surgical quality contributes significantly to high postoperative TT rates. We examined 1) the accuracy of experts in evaluating a standard set of immediate post-op photos and 2) the expert trainers' perceived benefits of such photos for improving training.
We compiled a series of post-op photos with an equal distribution of each outcome of interest: good quality, over-rotation, under-rotation, and eyelid contour abnormality (ECA). We assigned each photo a gold-standard grade, based on our team consensus. We asked a group of TT surgery experts, including ophthalmologists and ophthalmic nurses to participate. First, we showed a series of immediate post-op photos to discuss common surgical mistakes and long-term consequences. Next, the participants evaluated 122 immediate post-op photos and recorded the most apparent surgical mistake (none, over-rotation, under-rotation, or ECA). We compared participant responses to our gold standard answers. Participants completed a questionnaire regarding their opinions on the feasibility and potential benefit of these photos as educational tools.
19 participants evaluated the photos and completed the questionnaire. Overall, participant responses agreed with the gold standard 84% of the time. Individual participant scores ranged from 67%-98%; 15 agreed with the gold standard response on at least 80% of the photos. Participants had the least difficulty identifying eyelids with under- or over-correction (84 and 89% accuracy, respectively). However, the gold standard photos for ECA were difficult to identify; only 74% of the time did participants correctly record ECA. For these, many participants recommended having the option to mark multiple mistakes. Participants agreed that post-op photos would be beneficial for improving the classroom (94%), live-surgery (100%), and examination (94%) portions of training. They indicated that the photos would be useful for demonstrating common mistakes (100%), good surgical outcomes (89%), and long-term complications (79%).
This study showed significant promise for developing a set of training materials that can be used both in teaching and examining trichiasis surgery trainees. From these findings, we can begin to develop meaningful, internationally-standardized educational tools based on documented consensus and discussion.

Jesus the Bread of Life Part 3 (Jn. 6:41-59)
This is my personal summary of the preaching of Rev Dr Stephen Tong on 15 August 2010 in True Way Presbyterian Church. It was preached in Chinese with English translation.
Passage: John 6:41-59
When Jesus said He is the bread that comes from heaven, people began to question it. His father was Joseph and His mother was Mary, and His siblings were with them, so what could He mean by saying He was from heaven. The Jews thought He was deceiving the masses so they asked some soldiers to come and capture Him. The soldiers in the end did not capture Him as they said, "Nobody spoke like this man."
Jesus was not talking about things of the earth, but things of heaven which would last to all eternity. His existence far transcended our lives. For listeners who were so narrow-minded, how could they understand what He meant? The Word of God transcends space, time, culture and eras. Human natural response is to criticise when they cannot understand the truth. So the religious leaders criticised Jesus for His teaching.
Jesus used words that are quite obscure and very hard for people to understand. He would have mercy on whom He will have mercy. He will have compassion on whom He will have compassion. This is His sovereignty. When you cannot understand the truth, it is not that He failed to convert you but because He has not enlightened you.
Moses led the Israelites for 40 years in the desert and they experienced the miracle of the manna during the period. On the day they entered the Promised Land the miracle of the manna stopped. But manna is a representation of a greater reality, not the reality itself. Jews thought they were superior to all the other races because their ancestors received manna from heaven. But Jesus said He was the bread of life and reminded the Jews that their ancestors ate manna and died.
Likewise Jesus told the Samaritan woman that her ancestors drank from Jacob's well and thirst again, but those who drink from His living water will never thirst anymore.
Jesus now compared the manna to His own body. If you eat His flesh you will never die. What does it mean? He brought them out of the boundaries of their limited understanding, their focus on the material and visible, into the spiritual and invisible. Jesus wants to elevate our mind so that we can break through our limitedness. But we tend to focus on material things and despise things spiritual.
When they could not understand, Jesus said to them not to grumble as nobody came to Him unless the Father drew him. He wanted to bring them into eternal, uncorruptible realm. Most of us are very satisfied with the material world and uninterested in the spiritual. Because they knew Jesus in the flesh, they had distorted understanding of Him. When you go to the wrong seminary, it is very hard for you to unlearn the wrong thing than to learn the right thing. You become very stubborn because you think you already know.
Jesus taught that material food cannot bring eternal life. Thus man does not live by bread alone, but by every word that comes out from the mouth of God. All other religions paint men as the seekers of the truth. But when Jesus said He is the Bread from heaven, it is profound statement that the Eternal One is the Initiator who came down to earth to give life to men. It is not men seeking after God.
Jesus said three times that He will raise up at the last day those who believe in Him. This means that is that life comes from Him. He is the True Manna from heaven. The manna in the Old Testament is temporal, it is a shadow of what is to come. The Old Testament prepares the way for the New Testament. The Word of God Himself (Christ) is the manifestation of what is foreshadowed in the Old Testament. You are to receive this Word become flesh to gain eternal life. Thus Christ said they are to eat His flesh. People think he is crazy.
Many people who do not know Jesus Christ judge Him by outward appearances. He did not have comely outward appearance. He was despised and rejected, and died crucified. But He never retaliated.
Jesus is the word of God. He is the Truth Himself. Other religions seek truth from their own perspective. The Bible shows that the truth is life itself. Truth is combined with the word. Truth linked to way and life.
Jesus also said to drink his blood (Jn. 6:54). This appears to contradict the Old Testament command which forbids drinking blood. In Acts 15:28 there was a command to abstain from blood for the Gentile believers. Why then did Jesus say to drink his blood? Deuteronomy said the life of all living creatures is in the blood. Moses was saying the mystery of life lies in the blood therefore we are commanded not to eat blood. Jesus says to drink His blood so that you can gain His life. Both imply that life is in the blood, so there is no contradiction between the Old Testament and Jesus' statement. We need to partake in Christ in order to have life.
It is a great invitation by the Son of God to drink His blood so that we can receive the life of God. Those who receive life from Christ are new creation. Without the shedding of blood sin cannot be forgiven. Jesus is God become flesh. As human being, He has flesh and blood. The life of Christ is in His blood. The precious blood of Christ contains the eternal life of God.

Taipei, Feb. 11 (CNA) Melody Albano Castro came to Taiwan from the Philippines three years ago to save up for an operation her husband needs, but before she could realize that goal her life was tragically cut short this week when an earthquake struck the eastern city of Hualien, killing at least 16 people.
The body of the 28-year-old was found Thursday evening in the half-collapsed Yun Men Tsui Ti building, one of the buildings most seriously damaged by the earthquake.
Prior to her death, Castro was working as a caregiver for the family of Taiwan-born Japanese Mrs. Sumin Okubo (大久保淑珉). She took care of Mrs. Okubo's younger brother who lived with Mr. and Mrs. Okubo.
Mrs. Okubo told CNA that Castro came to Taiwan to work three years ago.
Traveling hundreds of miles from her hometown in Cagayan province, in the northeast of the Philippines' Luzon Island, Castro came to Taiwan with one goal in mind, to earn money to pay for her husband's operation.
"She needed money to pay for her husband's surgery. He suffered a severe head injury in a car accident several years ago," Okubo told CNA. The family which has already spent NT$350,000 (US$11,837) on medical expenses, needs another NT$450,000 to pay for the brain surgery he needs, she said.
As the only breadwinner in the family, Castro had to make enough to take care of her parents, husband and six-year-old daughter, according to Okubo.
Castro's aunt, who also works in Taiwan, told her that she could earn more money if she worked in Taiwan.
Okubo said the Filipino's first job was to babysit in Taipei, a job she hated because her employer worked in a bar, meaning she had to take care of the baby all day and night and never got enough rest.
After quitting the job in Taipei, Okubo said Castro's labor broker arranged for her to work in Hualien where she had cared for an elderly dementia patient who had violent outbursts.
"Melody told me that the patient sometimes hit, kicked and bit her. She stuck it out for one year until he brandished a kitchen knife at her and then she decided to leave," said Okubo.
Castro was then transferred to a remote aboriginal village which she said was less developed than her rural hometown in Cagayan and she worked there for only a week.
She started work as a caregiver for Okubo's family on Sep. 1 2017, a day that changed her life and that of the Okubo family.
"She was such an angel," Mrs. Okubo said. Using her given name "Melody," Okubo said she was kind-hearted, cheerful and loved to sing. Indeed, Castro's arrival immediately changed the atmosphere of the whole family, she added.
"She would call me big sister and my brother big brother, every night she kissed each one of us and said goodnight."
To save money, Castro did not return to the Philippines after she came to Taiwan three years ago and in addition to being a caregiver she also sold products online to make some extra cash, according to Okubo.
"But she called home everyday to talk with her six-year-old daughter and even showed her our photos or put them on her Facebook," Okubo said.
Castro and the Okubo family lived together as a family and before the tragedy were discussing extending their contract.
Castro was also planning her first trip home in three years during the Christmas holiday this year.
Okubo was heartbroken at Melody's death and said she felt sorry for her family.
"Many of the Filipino caregivers I know hugged me and said not to be too sad for Melody, saying it was fate. But I told them I could not accept that, she was so young with at least 40-50 years ahead of her and her whole family was waiting for her. Life is so cruel."
If there is any consolation, Castro's family in the Philippines will be entitled to NT$1.19 million in compensation, according to Taiwan's Ministry of Labor, and a payout of NT$600,000 from Hualien County government.
Meanwhile, the Manila Economic and Cultural Office (MECO) in Taipei, is assisting the family in the aftermath of Castro's death. MECO represents the Philippines' interests in Taiwan in the absence of official diplomatic ties.
Gerry De Belen, head executive assistant and information officer of MECO, told CNA that it has sent a team to Hualien to take care of the matter while waiting for Castro's family to decide whether to come to Taiwan.
MECO will also pay consolation money to Castro's family, with the exact amount to be decided at a meeting next week, he noted.
Although the money cannot make up for the devastating loss, the ever cheerful Filipino will always be remembered by the Okubo family as their angel.
"Without those few seconds in the earthquake, Melody would still be here with us," Okubo said. "I want to say to you, you have gone to heaven just one step ahead of me. I will see you again."

History, science, and the 'Year of Two Winters': uncovering the secrets of Dene migration
Archeology shows Northern Indigenous people travelled and traded widely
Raymond Yakeleya, a Dene filmmaker originally from Tulita, N.W.T., is struck by the rich history of his people.
He attended the second Dene Migration Symposium hosted by the Tsuut'ina Nation, a Dene community near Calgary, earlier this month. Part of the focus of the conference was on the people defined by the Dene family of languages and their movements across North America.
"It seems that all of the Dene were true nomads," Yakeleya said. "They were not scared to go around the next corner or go around the next mountain in search of their livelihood in North America."
Dene language family widespread
John Ives is a professor in the department of anthropology at the University of Alberta in Edmonton, and the executive director of the Institute of Prairie Archaeology. His work — as well as the work of his students and colleagues — is central to modern understanding of Dene history.
"Dene speakers go from the North slope of Alaska all the way to northern Mexico," Ives said.
"It's one of the most remarkable language family distributions in the New World — it's probably the largest."
Ives points to research showing a Dene language connection as far away as Russian Siberia, where there is a "vocabulary of about 120 words that appear to be shared between the Dene languages and the Ket languages of the Yenisei River in Siberia," he said.
"The structure of the languages and the way verbs are inflected … are very similar. So there's this very strong suspicion that there is this historical connection that goes back deep, deep in time."
Dene origins 'one of the big questions'
But linguistic markers are not the only way researchers approach Dene history and origins.
Todd Kristensen is a Ph.D. candidate at the University of Alberta and a regional archaeologist for Alberta's Archeological Survey.
Part of Kristensen's current work is to track the spread of raw materials, and the stone tools made from those materials, across North America. The circulation of those tools can provide clues to the origins and movement of Northern Dene.
"This is one of the big questions," he said. "A lot of people are interested in the antiquity of Dene people in Yukon and the Northwest Territories. Some people think they moved in around 3,000 years ago, some think they have a much deeper history, [and] some think they have a more recent one."
Kristensen said archeological evidence today doesn't give the kind of definitive answers to questions of Dene origins in the North many might like to have, but his work supports the thesis that the people of pre-contact Northern Canada travelled and traded widely.
Kristensen's Ph.D. research includes a focus on Tertiary Hills Clinker, a unique glassy stone found in deposits near modern day Tulita.
Valued for its beauty and tool making attributes, Kristensen said tools made of Clinker have been found at sites across the Northwest Territories, central Alberta and into the Yukon.
"So you've got this social network that beginning around at least 9,000 years ago encompassed about 1.25 million square kilometres," he said.
This spread of Clinker supports the idea of long distance "intergroup contacts" between Indigenous populations in Alberta and the Mackenzie Valley, and could provide insight into the migration of Dene people southward into Alberta and the American Southwest.
Kristensen said this challenges any notion that pre-contact Northerners lived in isolated pockets, but instead traveled widely and had extensive social networks that covered "swathes" of the continent.
Natural disaster and forced migration, or, the 'year of two winters'
Documenting the travels of pre-contact indigenous populations throughout North America is important, but researchers also want to understand what motivated them to travel in the first place.
Yakeleya points to oral histories passed down through the generations that may provide clues as to why his ancestors traveled, and how the Dene came to settle in the Mackenzie Valley.
"There's a story my granny told my mom, and my mom related to me," Yakeleya said. "She called it the 'year of two winters.'"
Yakeleya said the story describes a year when spring didn't give way to summer, but was followed instead by a second winter so severe it forced his ancestors to leave their homes — perhaps in Alaska — and travel east and south into the Mackenzie Valley, where they settled upon more hospitable ground.
Yakeleya believes that second winter was the result of a volcanic eruption that spread a thick layer of ash so widely that it had the effect of introducing winter-like conditions where the ground was covered in ashen 'snow.'
He says his ancestors may have traveled into mountain ranges in search of safer ground.
"They didn't know how to find the passes to go through them [the mountains] … and the story goes the elders said, 'Let's just follow the caribou, the caribou will be our guides.' And they led them into the Mackenzie Valley."
Oral history meets modern science
Kristensen said the kind of archeological evidence needed to fully support a thesis like that hasn't been uncovered yet, but research does suggest that relatively recent volcanic eruptions did play a part in the migrations of the Dene.
"There were two eruptions from the same general area," Kristensen said. "One spread north — around 1,800 years ago — and the second one spread east around 1,200 years ago. I don't know if it could have spurred migrations in Alaska, but certainly people think that it did spur some migrations of people from southern Yukon and into the Northwest territories."
These eruptions, called the White River Ash event, were centred on Mount Churchill in Alaska, and may have triggered the migration of Northern Dene southward.
The spread of volcanic ash would have had a devastating effect on the land and its people. Volcanic ash is not like the ash a person might clean out of a fireplace.
"The ash is microscopic bits of natural volcanic glass — obsidian. They're extremely sharp and they have a terrible impact on aquatic eco-systems," Ives said.
"[For] any of us terrestrial creatures breathing ... it's very hard on our lungs [and] it abrades plants.
"The immediate consequences, even if they were brief, would have been quite severe."
Ives said traces of the ash deposit can be found as far east as the west side of Great Slave Lake, and that it travelled at higher elevations and settled as far away as Greenland.
"You get the impression that it was a huge event in the Northern Hemisphere and that the ash circulated widely across the North Atlantic."
Ives said these events, particularly the second larger eruption about 1,200 years ago in the same location, could have spurred the Dene ancestors of modern day Apache and Navajo to leave subarctic Canada and follow a "plains bison hunting lifestyle" southward to their ultimate modern homelands.
11,000 years of volcanic eruptions
Kristensen said he's not convinced the white ash event in particular had a major impact on social networks in the Northwest Territories, but there have been many volcanic eruptions along the west and northwest coast of North America over the past 11,000 years.
Could one of these eruptions in time immemorial have driven Yakeleya's ancestors out of the mountains and into the Mackenzie Valley?
"It's certainly a possibility," Kristensen said.
"That theme picks up elsewhere in the North and across North America — that there are these volcanic eruptions that end up blacking out the sun for months on end — and it is described as that 'year of two winters' when things are cold for a long time."
Oral histories are fertile ground for researchers, even if it can be difficult at times to nail down archeological evidence to support those histories.
"It's a stimulating source of research and archaeologists in particular spend a lot of time trying to detect the archaeological signatures of oral histories," Kristensen said.
"It's important for us to discover ourselves"
Both Ives and Kristensen agree: documenting Indigenous oral history and languages — especially those in danger of disappearing — is crucial.
"We've been working to amass 20,000 words in the [pan-Dene] language family," Ives said of contemporary research.
"For me as an archeologist, when historical linguists can look at words and reconstruct words for things in the past, it can tell us a great deal about the objects that we find in the past.
"A word can have semantic information buried in it. The object [alone] can't tell you as much as an archeologist and a linguist working together."
Yakeleya is working toward getting a long-standing documentary film project on Dene origins and migration into production.
For him, understanding the history and language of the Dene goes beyond its scientific utility. It's a way of connecting his people, especially the youth, to who they are today by understanding where they came from in time's most distant yesterday.
"This is our history," he said. "Not history as told by the white man — this is the history as told by our people and we need to value that. We need to understand our DNA trail, our linguistic trail.
"It's important for us to discover ourselves."
Yakeleya said there is a sense of urgency to the work.
"The conference highlighted that we're losing our language at a very fast rate … We're losing a lot of the traditional knowledge and language of our people."
Yakeleya hopes the next Dene migration conference can find a northern sponsor and be hosted in the Northwest Territories.

I'm really impressed! I only have one complaint...I keep wanting to see the next step! How much is the kit? Not that I need to know how much the next build will be before I finish my first, but this really looks like fun!
I'm really impressed! I only have one complaint...I keep wanting to see the next step! How much is the kit? Not that I need to know how much the next build will be before I finish my first, but this really looks like fun!
Now, thats the spot where gluing later would be nice, because attaching the stringers later allows them to be laminated with the ply in the shape they want to be, if that makes sense.
However, as I see this come together, I realize the real reason for the stringers first is to key it all together. What an absolutely wonderful to assemble it all. The horizontal and vertical surfaces all tabbing and slotting, as it were.
It is like building a model. So cool!
Are those timber stem pieces? They look it.
Keep up the good work. Youre already almost to the tedious, fiddly, never ending part of the build.
Its clear from the latest pictures those stringers are not square, that they appeared to be on the photo i made the comment on, might have been due to shadow and my eyesight. Gives me much food for thought for up-coming plans. Imagine how much time you have saved not having to make that cockpit seating! Carry on.
Still plugging away at it. I've gone from dry fitting to "it's too late to go back" bonding. The sole and berth flat are in, next the shelves which double as web frames and the sheer clamps.
The looming struggle is the job of flipping this thing over for the bottom. I may need a chain hoist.
Looking good, Wox.
How heavy is she ( now)?
There are two kinds of boaters: those who have run aground, and those who lie about it.
- Chris
Life is short. Go boating now!
Not heavy at all. My big concern is the unsupported ply edges. I don't want to break anything. I may put a simple box frame around it.
Right, Chris. Most CLC kits are much smaller than this. Plus, this is the prototype so there are no detailed directions. I'm sorting it out as I go along and reporting back to John.
I'm liking this wrong way out building method. I see it's potential until it comes time for the bottom work.
Are the slots on the cabin sides for dagger boards/lee boards?

Yes, it has a pair of unballasted bilgeboards that open through the deck. Lots of boats need to be flipped once during construction. This one, twice.
Very cool project. The CLC guys sure have got it well figured out. I'm enamored with the teardrop camper.
Nice work!
There's the plan, then there's what actually happens.

back in August of '13 a member from the Uk Little Idea started an 84 page thread
I want to build airplane lifting wheels into my boat Im building, but dont know how
and in it i saw a work table that might help folks working solo lift turn and flip their projects
might take some time to look thru the pics and ponder it
"we are the people, our parents warned us about" (jb)
When I rolled our 20 plywood sailboat, we just set it on short horses with long tops. Short in height, long in lemgth. we scooted it to one end, rolled 90*, scooted it back over, then rolled once more.
She was probably 300 pounds, and I did it with one other person and a belay person, just in case.
The boat also has plumb sides (though its not square), so rested easily on one side. I simply added spreaders between the sheer clamps to keep it braced during the rollover.
Looking good, Yo.
Robert, I like that plan. The horses would just be tall enough to keep the cabin top frames from contacting the floor. And in my case, 8' long horses would do the trick. I may still put a strap around it attached to some sort of hoist to control the process. When it comes back upright, the weight will be near doubled and it will be very bottom-heavy.
Steve - I do remember Little Idea, what a great blog that is. Wonder what he's up to now? What I don't recall is the boat-turning device. I'll take a look.
I've ordered a couple of cheap one-ton chain hoists. The plan is this: put a lag screw halfway down each stem. Run a length of chain between the pairs of joists above the ends of the boat. The center points line up pretty closely to the ends of the boat. Hang a hoist at each end, hook on and lift. Once it's up about 14", I'll slide under the long and low sawhorses you suggested, Robert. But they only need to be as wide as the boat, because as I continue to lift the boat clear of the horses, I can rotate it in place. I'll still need a control line, but the load on it shouldn't be very great.
I see a couple of advantages this way -- I can easily turn the boat on either side for easier glassing, the process should be slow and controlled and maybe even possible single-handed. And also, I can use the hoists to lift it on and off the trailer in the future. The lag screws won't be permanent, but there will be a bow eye for the trailer winch and I can easily fit a lifting eye somewhere aft.
So am I missing something? The boat weighs 500 pounds at most now. Finished without the removable lead ballast it's designed to come in at 1,000 pounds. As long as 500 pounds on each pair of rafters isn't too much, I figure the roof won't cave in on me. Right?
ready to roll.jpg
Gee, I wouldn't trust your beautiful hull to lag screws. You don't want to think about what would happen if one pulled out. From your photos it looks as though you have enough room to roll her onto a side, use a hoist to lift the hull onto two carefully placed sawhorses, and then roll the hull the rest of the way over. That is how I rolled my hull in a shop with far less space than you have. My hoist is hard to see in this photo, but the cable wraps around under the hull and is fastened to the starboard rail. With most of the weight supported by the hoist, I was able to drag the hull, on the two cushions, to the left and then finish the roll onto saw horses (one of which is visible in the left foreground).

I'm really enjoying your thread. I love John Harris designs .
This is going to be a very cool looking craft.
---This post is delivered with righteous passion and with a solemn southern directness --
...........fighting against the deliberate polarization of politics...
I built a CLC Peeler a few years ago and flipped it a few times. I used ratchet straps lagged into the ceiling joists. I lifted the hull a few inches and rotated it in the straps. I was concerned with the, at that point, unreenforced plywood at the sheer, but there was no issue. I had two helpers the first time we rolled it, but the other times I was by myself. The slipperiness of the webbing allowed the hull to slide easily with no impact on the hull. I think that the weight and beam of the Peeler and your boat are similar. Looks great.
have to strongly agree w/ MH about the lag screws pulling out/damaging the hull at that point in addition to the damage from impacting the floor
ponder this
move the hoists to 1/3 in from each end and hang a block/pully from each
tie 2 rope loops around the hull 1 thru each block
lift the hull in the loops and roll her while the blocks allow the loops to move freely
should be a 1-man job w/o fear of pulling out a lag screw & dropping one end on the floor
if the unstiffened shear is of concern you could fasten a 2x brace across the hull where the ropes sling the hull
if the weight on an individual joist is of concern you could build a STRONG BACK(inverted T section screwed to the top of the joists) connecting all the joists to spread the load
¿ clear as mud ?
"we are the people, our parents warned us about" (jb)
This boat is going to be trailered, yes? You're going to install a hell-for-stout bow eye eventually, just do it now instead of the lag-bolt. do it at both ends.
There is MUCH to be said for building/finishing on a rotissierie-style arrangement. Your back and knees will benefit enormously.
No adversary is worse than bad advice.
I'm not sure that the stems would have enough strength to support the entire hull without the deck in place.
Thanks all for the comments. Mike, the stems are massive compared to the rest of the lumber in this boat, and the sides are glued and screwed to them with about 4" of width from top to bottom. Also, the cockpit sole and berth flat are epoxied into the sides and frames, plus the sheer clamp is in, so the whole unit is quite rigid. The weakest spot is the bottom edge of the side panels because the chine logs aren't in yet. That's one reason I starting thinking about lifting from the ends.
Putting the bow eye in now makes sense, my only hesitation is that I don't have the trailer yet and don't know for certain how much latitude I'll have to adjust the winch to the eye. But I think I'll want the working bow eye higher up, and the lifting eye for building on center. I also need to check the rudder clearance in the stern so see how big a permanent eye could fit there. Of course, if the gudgeons were really oversized I could lift with them. Hmmm. Nahh.
Steve -- some reinforcement over the joists would give me peace of mind. There's a ply floor over them with storage space above. I could drill a couple of holes through the floor and run the chains up and over that strongback. It wouldn't have to be permanent.
When its on the trailer, your "stern eye" will make securing the boat to the trailer quite handy. I would bolt in a large eye now, and plan on replacing it with something lower profile later on. It will be well worth the effort to improve the build experience.Putting the bow eye in now makes sense, my only hesitation is that I don't have the trailer yet and don't know for certain how much latitude I'll have to adjust the winch to the eye.

i think the rotissery idea is the best. i have seen others on these forums happily use them. two stout i-bolts would work just fine and when you are done the holes are easily filled. just my opinion.
The rotissery worked. Things are cooking!
Step one, rig a chain hoist to each stem. The hoists hang from chains that go through holes in the ceiling and loop over 6' long 2x6s, which spreads the load from the end walls out over three joists.
Roll 1.jpg
Step two, rig a pair of control lines, made off to clamps on the sheer.
Roll 3.jpg
Step three, call in the wife to haul on one hoist while I do the other, periodically taking up the slack in the control lines. When she's high enough to roll, move to the control lines and haul on one as the other is eased. The lines are run around heavy dowels set through the studs for sure control of the process.
Roll 5.jpg
As she came over, I found that the load on the line was heavier than I estimated, which is to say the boat was pivoting above the center of gravity. I slapped on an old boom vang, which served as a handy billy to help bring it along.
Roll 7.jpg
Final step, slide under a pair of long and low saw horses made to order and ease her back down with the chain hoists, once again pausing to ease the tension on the control lines. Then block up the stems and it's time to get to work on the bottom.
And thanks everyone for the tips and advice. First time I've attempted a trick like this.
Roll 8.jpg
That looked very slick and quick from here. did you use ring bolts or something else in the stems, what thickness?
Half-inch by 5-inch bolts. I've decided not to fill the holes so the bolts can be fit anytime in the future to lift the boat. I'll put some sort of plugs in the holes but it's not critical. The forward one goes into the anchor locker that drains overboard, and the aft goes into a storage locker that drains to the sole. One late realization after I began rigging everything was that I can't use the forward hoist with the garage door open. (Obviously) But I can still lift it, support the boat just ahead of midships, then roll the trailer about half-way under it. I was pleased that the whole process was easy to control. I bought those hoists online for about $30 each, which was the only real expense, so it was a relatively cheap way to do it, too.
18 Roll 1.5.jpg
Awesome job on the roll. May I inquire as to where the hoist came from and their capacities?

Steer Clear of Steak Knives – Perfect for Cutting Steak
Steer clear of steak knives are one of the very best knives for reducing. They are not simply famous in a nation however are renowned around the world. These knives are prominent for their premium quality, resilience and sharpness. It is commonly seen that individuals struggle while cutting a steak which is just an item of meat. Steer clear of steak knives are specifically designed for this objective. These knives assist you in cutting the steak in clear cut pieces and make your dish a lot more appealing and also tasty. Avoid steak knives are offered in numerous layouts and sizes as per the requirement. You can seek them and also choose the most effective one based on your selection and also demand.

This will certainly make it simple for you to hold it tight in your hand.
You ought to additionally provide value to the size as well as width of the blade which plays a vital function while choosing a laguiole harmony. Steer clear of steak knives need to be sharp. Blunt Knife are just good for cheese as well as except steak. Look for excellent serrations on the blade of your blade. This will help in cutting your steak properly and also evenly. A lot of knives are pretty resilient, but due to the fact that the majority of them include wooden handles, even if they're dishwashing machine safe, you probably don't intend to clean them this way due to the vapor in the dishwashing machine. See to it the wood deal with does not remain immersed in water for long. That's not to say you have to treat them all too naturally but gradually sitting in water for prolonged durations of saturating will cause the wood to split and also at some point rot after a lot of expanded soaking sessions. If you do decide to clean them in the dishwashing machine, similar to any other Knife, you do not want to put them blade up. The pointed tip can stab you as you're getting to in to discharge the dish washer. You additionally will certainly do well to get a collection that is available in an instance or a butcher's block, due to the fact that maintaining them with each other in a drawer could not just reduce you when you're reaching into the drawer, however could additionally harm the knives themselves.

Americans are used to seeing images of bloodied protesters, faces of desperation and mass movements on the news--but today, these 2-D images no longer feel flat because we can hear REAL voices with them. YouTube videos, tweets, blog posts--the internet is giving Iranians a louder voice than ever, a voice that can be heard ANYWHERE in REAL-time:
- The Boston Globe has the best collection of photographs from the events in Iran this week
- The NY Times' Lede news blog has the latest news out of Iran
- Protest photos and comments on Mir Hossein Mousavi's Facebook page
- Tweet from Iranian Student @Change-for_Iran "we have to leave, it's not safe here anymore! wish us luck!" is eerie. Change_for_Iran's life has been unfolding on his/her twitter page, and with the Iranian government internet crackdown this could be the last we hear from him/her.
- Gathering global support - WhereIsMyVote.org seeks the support of abroad Iranians who demand 'a new election' that is 'held with transparency and accuracy.'
- Painting the Internet GREEN- From changing your profile picture green to the Iran soccer team sporting green bands, Mousavi supporters and those who wish for a new election have been spreading word of their cause through the color green.

Lord T and Eloise is a musical group in the crunk rap genre. The rap duo is composed of Maurice Eloise XIII (Eloise) and Lord Treadwell (Lord T) with their resident disc jock DJ Witnesse. People could easily identify Lord T as he dresses up as an aristocrat from the 18th century while Eloise is often associated with a 24 karat gold skin and always wearing a tuxedo. The group hails from Memphis, Tennessee – the home of crunk music. The local music scene inspired them to embrace the unique and innovative Memphis brand of rap and crunk music. They invested in their own synthesizer, sampler, keyboards, Roland TR – 808 programmable drum machine and robotic voice effects to make their music as true to crunk and rap as it could be.
Lord T and Eloise have proclaimed themselves as time travelers from an inter-galaxy far, far away and they have come to this planet to save rap music in particular. These performers also see themselves as the Rapocalypse forebearers that is why they took it upon themselves to promote their crunk, hip-hop, and rap music all over the United States to prevent this from happening.
Lord T and Eloise have been under the Entertainment One Music and Eloise record companies. They have released five albums so far – Aristocrunk, Chairmen of the Board, Rapocalypse, Day Drinking, Crockett and Tubbs (Com Truise Edition), Eloise, Eloise at Christmastime, Country Girl, and Marie Antoinette. Some of their most popular songs are Million Dollar Boots, Back from the Business Trip, The Straight Liberace, Wu Hui, Black Limousine, I'm Rich, To My Ladies, Penthouse Suite, Dance Move, Untuxedo, Never Workin', The Goodies Here and There, Creation Myth, Goin' Shopping, Drastically Plastic, and many more. They have been acclaimed as The World's First Purveyor of Aristocrunk by VH1 channel and have received positive reviews from critics for their performances and lyrical content.
