Five days ago I wrote a post on TransCanada Corp.'s two new lawsuits against the Obama Administration's denial of the Keystone XL Pipeline for the long drawn-out, multi-year rejection of the pipeline. One lawsuit filed in a Houston Federal Court, states that President Obama exceeded his authority in November when he blocked the pipeline's construction, the other, separately filed, is an international petition under NAFTA seeking to recover $15 billion in costs and damages incurred in its attempt to build the cross-border pipeline.
Today, it seems that the same Obama Administration that rejected the Keystone XL pipeline has no problem at all in supporting a new oil pipeline project in Kenya. U.S. Ambassador Robert Godec told Kenya's energy minister that the Obama Administration would help Nairobi raise $18 billion to finance its PowerAfrica project. The pipeline, the Wall Street Journal reports, would stretch from Kenya's Rift Valley to Lamu on the coast. Mr. Godec said that "Kenya needs $18 billion worth of financing, so one of the questions we are discussing is how we can work together with the private sector and governments to raise that sum, to find ways to make certain that this financing becomes available."
Under the North American Free Trade Agreement, the U.S. is obliged to treat a Canadian company in the same way it would treat an American company. The case may well succeed because of the extraordinary regulatory barriers the U.S. imposed on the investment. It's clear that President Obama blocked the project on arbitrary political grounds. The resolution of these two cases will be interesting to watch. A oil pipeline would undoubtedly help Kenya, but I'm not sure it should be financed with taxpayer dollars.

A CSX train composed largely of tanker cars derailed this afternoon in Mount Carbon, West Virginia. Adena village, a neighborhood close to the derailment, was evacuated after one residence caught fire when a tanker car slammed into a house and burst into flames.
One tanker car went into the Kanawha River, and some cars exploded. All but two of the 109 cars were tankers loaded with Bakken crude from North Dakota, headed to Yorktown, Virginia. At least 14 tank cars were reported to be on fire, and there is burning oil on the Kanawha. Some cars have exploded, and at least one sent a fireball at least 300 feet in the air.
Two water treatment plants have been shut down to prevent oil from getting into the water supply. Residents will continue to have water for the next 6 to 8 hours due to an emergency reserve supply.
Proponents of the Keystone XL pipeline keep reminding the environmental activists that oil trains have a record of derailing, sometimes with considerable lost lives, and that a pipeline is immeasurably safer, but it doesn't sink in. The oil will go to market, whether by pipeline, train or truck. We have many pipelines crossing the Midwest because they are safer and thriftier.
Our economy runs on oil, coal, natural gas and in some places—hydropower and nuclear energy. If we want an economy, and goods to supply the economy, we must have energy. Solar arrays and wind farms produce little energy, and must have 24/7 full-time backup from a conventional power plant. Sounded nice to depend on the sun and the wind, but it was always hooey, and a scheme to enrich favored cronies with government subsidies.
It was not known at the time of this report if anyone was injured or killed.

The Senate voted on Wednesday that "climate change is real and is not a hoax" — an amendment to the Keystone XL pipeline vote sponsored by Senator Sheldon Whitehouse (D-RI) which passed, to Democrats' astonishment, with only Mississippi Senator Roger Wicker voting 'no.'
In a surprise, the Senate's leading skeptic of climate science, Sen. James Inhofe (R-Okla.), voted in favor of the amendment — but made clear he doesn't believe humans are the primary driver of climate change.
The Hill apparently regarded this as astonishing. Democrats think they have accomplished something, for they regard Republicans as "climate deniers," which is another of their false tag operations. The climate is always changing. We have had ice ages and the Medieval Warm Period, and the Roman Warm period when the climate was milder. Nobody denies that there is climate change.
The news has been full of the claim that 2014 was the "hottest year" on record, based on unreliable surface thermometer records and even that refers only to four-hundredths of a degree — which is hardly significant. The only significant measurements of global temperature are the satellite temperatures which indicate that temperature changes since 2001 are "statistically insignificant." We have had satellite measurements for 36 years.
The only place where climate alarmism is rampant is in climate computer programs where they try to predict the future based on a representation of earthly climate they have programmed in. Unfortunately, the predictive ability of the programs cannot even produce the temperatures of today or any time in the past 36 years when we know what the global climate was. GIGO.
The idea that the Keystone XL pipeline has any effect on climate is preposterous. Climate scientist Roy Spencer PhD who runs the satellites out of Huntsville AL commented on the 'hottest year on record.' His website has some excellent short explanations of climate change and what we know and what we don't.

President Obama said today, during a press conference in Myanmar, that a looming vote in the Republican-led House of Representatives to approve the Keystone XL pipeline would not alter his views on the project. He accused GOP leaders of falsifying the numbers of jobs created by the pipeline.
Understand what this project is: It is providing the ability of Canada to pump their oil, send it through our land, down to the Gulf, where it will be sold everywhere else. It doesn't have an impact on U.S. gas prices," the president said, issuing some of his strongest language yet against Keystone.
I have also noted that, as policy matter, my government believes that we should judge this pipeline based on whether or not it accelerates climate change or whether it helps the American people with their energy costs and their gas prices," he added. "And I have to constantly push back against this idea that somehow the Keystone pipeline is either this massive jobs bill for the United States, or is somehow lowering gas prices.
The president's "strongest language yet" reveals nothing quite so much as the fact that he has no understanding at all of how an economy works. Look at how he transforms the project from a benefit to both nations into a greedy Canada using us to transport their oil which they will sell all over the world — with no benefit to the U.S. at all. He is apparently speaking to the same stupid voters that Jonathan Gruber says they tricked into approving ObamaCare.
TransCanada spelled out the number of jobs that would be required, 13,000 construction and 7,000 to build the pipeline materials, for a total of 20,000. Then there are spin-off jobs. The workers have to eat, be sheltered, buy gas for their cars. The U.S. has stalled Canada for so long, that the Canadians have made other plans for a pipeline to the West Coast and one to the East Coast, so there may be less oil being sent down to Texas, but I believe that sector is still needed. I'm just confident that the Canadians will no longer trust the U.S. to do what it claims it will.
Senator Mary Landrieu of Louisiana is fighting for her Senate seat in a runoff election, and the Democrats have pulled their money out. She introduced the bill in the Senate in a two-hour plea to the chamber. She is hoping her effort will persuade Louisiana voters to return her to office.
Democrats in the House and Senate are not as protective as they were before the election in which they feel he really let them down. It quickly passed the house 152-161 with 31 Democrats crossing over to vote in favor, and one Republican, Rep. Justin Amash (MI) voting "present." The Senate will vote on Tuesday. The Wall Street Journal mentioned:
Someone should tell the President that oil markets are global and adding to global supply might well reduce U.S. gas prices, other things being equal. A tutor could add that Keystone XL will also carry U.S. light oil from North Dakota's Bakken Shale. So even if he thinks that bilateral trade only helps Canada, he's still wrong about Keystone.
The oil will be transported to the market. The world needs the oil. It is currently being transported by oil train tanker cars. Trains derail, sometimes spectacularly, and sometimes kill people. Pipelines are safer.

The Obama administration has been holding up for six long years, any real decision on the Keystone XL Pipeline that would bring oil from the oil sands of Alberta to Gulf Coast refineries. Approving the project would have provided 20,000 well-paying construction jobs, boosted the economy and helped to lower the price of oil on the world market, and reduce the influence of Russia and OPEC in world affairs. The whole project was a huge win-win for both the United States and Canada.
Well, Canada has had just about enough. They are in the process of developing alternatives —one of which is a 2,900 mile pipeline that would carry a million barrels of oil a day from the oil sands region to the ice-free port of St. John, New Brunswick on the Bay of Fundy. There it would be refined and then shipped to customers around the world on supertankers. The Energy East Pipeline is a $10+billion (US dollar)project where an existing oil superport and refinery could export that oil to world markets, including India which is hungry for more energy.
Canada has already approved their Enbridge Northern Gateway Pipeline to Kitimaat British Columbia, a 1177 kilometer pipeline. That one is waiting approval from the many First Nation tribes that it would cross. There is also a 710 mi long Trans Mountain pipeline system operated by Kinder Morgan Energy Partners running from Edmonton, Alberta to terminals and refineries in British Columbia, Vancouver and the Puget Sound region in Washington. Kinder Morgan says expanding the existing pipeline, which they want to do by twelve times, is cheaper than Northern Gateway.
It is hard to over emphasize how annoyed the Canadians are over our failure to proceed on a mutually beneficial project because Obama wants campaign money from wealthy ideologues. Reuters says Canadian crude exports to the United States topped three million barrels per day last week. Much of this oil is moving by rail. Without a pipeline to a refinery and supertanker port, the U.S. is virtually Canada's only buyer. Canadians are subject to price discounts of as much as $43 a barrel that cost Canada something like $20 billion a year.
The White House's blockade of the Keystone XL hasn't stopped domestic Fracking or development of Alberta oil sands. Instead, the industry transports oil and natural gas with 19th century technology — rail. Seven out of every ten barrels from North Dakota's Baaken shale move by rail, and total carloads of crude have increased 4000% since 2008.
So naturally the president's regulators are looking at the dangers of trains. The 2003 Lac-Mégantic oil explosion killed 47 people and destroyed parts of the Quebec town, an agency called the Pipeline and Hazardous Materials Safety Administration is imposing new rail tank car design standards. Within three years, most of the 334,869 cars in the North American fleet must be retrofitted with thicker steel jackets, heat shields, better brakes and so on. Regulators, of course, claim to be acting in the name of rail safety, but according to the Federal Railroad Administration (FRA) 99.9977% of potentially dangerous cargo arrives without incident.
Hardening of tank cars might prevent 0.0023% of accidents. Most (88%) of derailments are the result of cracked, split or washed-out tracks and welding. The need is for more track maintenance and inspection. The other major cause of derailment is human error. The real motive seems to be to force tens of thousands of tanker rail cars off the rails and slow the oil and gas development to which the enviros object.
Bloomberg has a long and fascinating article on Canada's efforts to solve Obama's intransigence over the Keystone XL, and their own need to bring their mother lode of crude oil to market. With one project, Energy East will give Alberta's oil sands not only an outlet to eastern Canadian markets, but to global markets. Canadian oil and government interests feel they're being played by Obama as he sweeps aside a long understood "special relationship" between the world's two biggest trading partners to score political points with environmental supporters at home. (The Bloomberg piece includes maps that explain the pipelines).
It's clear that his will be a huge benefit for Canada. The projects span the whole country, uniting Western oilfields with coastal shipping. The Keystone XL may still be built sometime, but failure to deal with our close friend and neighbor to the north in a timely and honest manner has deeply damaged a longstanding relationship and we missed out on jobs and economic growth for the sake of Democrat politics.
Filed under: Capitalism, Economy, Energy, Foreign Policy, Politics | Tags: Barack Obama, House of Representatives, Keystone XL Pipeline
The House of Representatives passed legislation that extends transportation funding through September. Attached to the bill is a mandate for construction of the Keystone XL pipeline from Canada to the Gulf Coast. President Obama threatened to veto, but 69 Democrats abandoned the president to vote with the Republicans.The bill passed in the House 293 – 127. That is a significant number of defections.
Speaker John Boehner said" "The House is on record again in support of the Keystone XL pipeline — a project President Obama blocked, personally lobbied against, then tried to take credit for, and now says he'll veto. There's no telling where the president stands from one day to the next on Keystone, but he knows the pipeline has broad and bipartisan support in Congress and among the American people."
President Obama was widely criticized for his opposition to the pipeline, and his objections had little support in fact. It was a major affront to the Canadians, and has certainly not improved relations with our closest neighbors. There are 20,000 jobs n prospect, many in construction, many permanent, and many spin-off jobs in the surrounding economy. The pipeline had been approved by the State Department and vetted by every applicable agency, but the Greens are opposed, because they are opposed to fossil fuels.
A lot of Democrats up for re-election are well aware of how popular the Keystone XL is, and support for the Keystone is growing in the Senate. In a vote last month 11 Democrats joined the Republicans 47 votes, which is not far from the 60 required to break Harry Reid's filibuster. People want this thing.
This puts Obama in a very difficult position. If he chooses to veto, the veto would probably be upheld in the Senate, as overriding the veto would take 67 votes. But attempting to stop it would hurt Obama, who has already been badly damaged by his earlier intransigence. Obama may believe that Americans don't know anything about the problem, and won't notice, but that would be a bad gamble.
An inevitability to be much desired.
Filed under: Capitalism, Democrat Corruption, Domestic Policy, Economy, Election 2012, Energy | Tags: Keystone XL Pipeline, Obama's Mistake, The Price of Gas
Expectations about public policy have an enormous impact
on the market price of gasoline.
Holman Jenkins, writing in the Wall Street Journal, points out that candidate Gingrich's energy plan would put "the U.S. government unambiguously in favor of cheaper gasoline. He'd arguably be the first president since Reagan who didn't believe gasoline is a bad, obsolete product and priced too low."
Don't underestimate the psychological and political upheaval this would bring about. For decades, U.S. policy has been riven with a costly ambiguity about Washington's real aim for gasoline prices. In 2008, both parties nominated climate warriors for president, and both parties at times have favored dramatically increased fuel-mileage mandates, which imply higher gas prices unless Washington intends auto makers to go broke selling vehicles consumers don't want.
For decades, too, the EPA, in pursuit of relatively small air quality gains, has been allowed to balkanize the U.S. refining market with "boutique" fuels, driving up the price everywhere. For decades, environmentalists have been empowered to put domestic resources off-limits not just to preserve pristine nature, but to express disapproval of our energy "addiction."
Every once in a while these urges even threaten to coalesce into coherence with an outright policy of higher gasoline prices, as when the Clinton administration flirted with a BTU tax or the Obama administration plumped for cap and trade.
Back in the real world, politicians are in a state of panic when faced with the higher gasoline prices that are a direct result of their policies. President Obama was confronted with this paradox at the White House press conference this week. His response was interesting: "Do you think the president of the United States going into re-election wants gas prices to go up higher? Is there anybody here who thinks that makes a lot of sense?"
When Obama took office, gasoline prices averaged $1.89 a gallon. Today, here in Washington state, the average is hovering right around $4.00, though the national average is lightly lower. Democrats in Congress are considering ways to go after "oil speculators." The president is more interested in going after the oil company CEOs. The 1%, you know.
On Thursday, the Senate voted on an amendment that would fast-track the $7 billion, shovel-ready Keystone XL pipeline. Eleven Senate Democrats crossed the aisle to vote to eliminate the need for a federal permit and addressed environmentalists concerns by allowing Nebraskans to determine the route. Senate Republicans voted unanimously for Keystone, which would bring 830,000 barrels of crude oil from Alberta to gulf refineries, easing supplies and creating thousands of much-needed jobs.
The president put his press conference response aside and worked the phones hard, lobbying Senate Democrats, The final vote was 56–42, meaning a majority voted to strip the president of authority to block the pipeline, but it was 4 short of a filibuster 60-vote threshold to make it stick. Obama owns the Keystone XL Debacle.
Obama's constant refrain "There's no silver bullet" does not hold. Here are just a few things that could bring the price of gasoline down. State and federal taxes on gasoline average 45.7 cents a gallon, with the highest in New York at a combined 67.4 cents a gallon, and the low in Alaska at 26.4 cents. A number of analysts have noted that the Fed's devaluation of the dollar has led directly to higher oil prices, adding as much as 56 cents a gallon.
Federal and state rules require about 18 separate boutique fuels, or local blends, about what can be and can't be in their fuels. Sen. Roy Blunt has offered a bill to give the EPA more authority to waive these local rules. There are a long list of environmental rules— in 1999 the EPA required refiners to drastically cut the amount of sulfur in gasoline and diesel which cost the industry almost $5 billion and $1.5 each year. Environmental rules have driven smaller refiners out of business, closing 4 on the East Coast which makes gas more expensive in the region.
Environmental rules require refiners to add 6.6 million gallons of "advanced biofuels" to their product. The law has cost refiners almost $7 million in fines, since these advanced biofuels don't exist commercially and nobody knows if they will, which means bigger fines as the mandated amount increases.
So, there is not much that a president can do about the world price of oil, but there's a lot that is quite possible to do in this country to lower the cost — if one so chose.

Women's quality of life affected by lack of health care
On Monday, Margaret Chan, head of the United Nation's health agency, stated at the WHO that women's lives are not necessarily better than men's lives due to the fact they usually live 6 to 8 years longer. In fact, women are often less healthy than men. Women's quality of life is affected by the general lack of health care.
Women do seek out medical services more often than men. However, it is not the medical issues that are at the center of the problem. Women often fail to get treatment for violence, depression, and problems due to aging, which include Alzheimer's and dementia, writes Reuter's. The World Health Organization released a full report on the state of women's health on Monday, November 9th. It includes hurdles to health care for women at the various stages of their lives, but also how the impact on women affects society as a whole.
The report includes women worldwide. For example, in 2007 women born in 35 countries had a life expectancy of 80, but life expectancy was on 54 in the WHO African Region. Nearly 99% of the half a million maternal deaths every year occur in developing countries due to lack of health care. Girls in general are more likely to suffer from sexual abuse. For adolescent girls in high and middle income countries, the leading cause of death is road traffic injury. Breast cancer leads all other cancers in killing women ages 20-59 in high income countries. Finally, cardiovascular disease is the leading killer of women worldwide. Cardiovascular disease is not just a 'male' problem.
Other problems that affect women are that childbirth assistance is hard to access for unmarried and marginalized women, teenagers, and sex workers. The WHO states that in many countries, these services tend to be focused on married women, ignoring the needs of unmarried women and adolescents in need of the same services. Quality of life definitely is not positive in this regard.
Women are more likely to suffer from violence and are overwhelmingly more likely to suffer from sexual violence than men. These services tend to be overlooked, or the woman who seeks help from a medical professional may not be recognized. Unfortunately, even though women are the major contributors to society at large, especially health care dollars, health care systems are either unresponsive or not equipped to deal with their needs.
At a time where a woman may need a good portion of health care is in the aging years, often after the age of 65. Some of the needs that are often not treated include anxiety and depression as well as dementia. Other issues that affect the quality of life in women are unequal access to education, employment, and fair wages as well. Where medical insurance is often linked to employment, this can present a hurdle to health care.

Hiding from the troubles of her life... mainly how she is in love with her best friends soon to be husband... and how she cheated with him... Gigi goes to her childhood camp to be a cabin leader. While there she runs into the sexy, sassy and moody male cabin leader, Perry. As the tension flares between them, she learns how to move one and how to love someone who is not her best friends man.
I did not like this novel. I had a weak, underdeveloped plot and I has major plot holes it overlooks. Lets starts with my biggest moral issue with the novel and the least plot related problem... Gigi not only cheats with her best friends fiancé, but she does not fess up to it or even acknowledge it to the readers. She strait up makes out with him WHILE he is in a engagement relationship with her best friend. They approach having sex and only stop when HER BEST FRIEND calls and interrupts! But after that moment, it is not mentioned again or even acknowledged again. The main character lies by saying nothing happened after her best friend and him got engaged, multiple times! And it's clear that the main character is constantly justifying cheating between her and him and her own father and other women. This made me strongly dislike the main character and the book alongside it. It was very disturbing to read. All of that aside, the plot was just plain weak and had very minimal real development. Nothing happens. There is nothing of true conscience or interest throughout the "story". If you boiled the story down to its actual plot elements, it would be ridiculously short... just nothing really happens. In the end, I DO NOT recommend this story and I only give One S'More Summer the rating of TWO OUT OF FIVE STARS!!!

Camp WWE, a new adult-oriented program broadcast on the WWE Network, is drawing a fast-growing viewership of fans who find standard WWE programming too immature and cartoonish.
The show, which tackles deep existential dilemmas of the human condition through the ironic use of choppy animation and toilet humor, provides the kind of intellectual stimulation that one simply cannot attain by watching The New Day throw cake on people.
Camp WWE is being hailed by fans and critics alike as genre-defying masterpiece — even more insightful and thought-provoking than The Edge and Christian Show That Totally Reeks of Awesomeness.
Some experts believe that ratings of Camp WWE may soon surpass the company's flagship show — the longest running weekly episodic program in television history — Total Divas.

Yes (gold and silver)
pencil and acrylic
One of the things I have to practice is saying yes to life. My first impulse is always to say no. The farther out of my comfort zone things are, the more likely I am to say no, or just clam up and hide.
I've learned to get around this impulse. I make myself little reminders, like this painting of YES. Or I try to change my automatic internal dialogue into something more positive. I ask myself, what's the worst that could happen? I join blog challenges to do one brave thing a day. Sometimes, I just hold my breath and jump in.
Another thing I do to help myself learn to take chances and try new things and go for my goals, is to take baby steps. For instance, I wanted to do more portraits, try something new, really get into it. So I started small. The earlier recent portraits are an example. The first ones were a bit over 3"x5.5". Note paper size. And then I moved up to vintage book pages at about 4.5"x7". The scrap paper and left over book pages are not only small, but because they are "scrap" the stakes are lowered for me. This enables me to take chances, to risk things not working out... because it's just experimenting.
ink on vintage Alice in Wonderland Page
Here my experiments get a bit larger. Practicing with the same image, trying new things, learning the technique, branching out.
ink on paper, moleskine
Now on plain paper. This is not watercolor paper and it absorbed the ink strangely. Something I actually thought was interesting, so I decided to try something a bit more challenging
ink on paper, moleskine
I painted my daughter. I always find painting kids to be very challenging, because the features are so soft and rounded. But after experimenting with these vintage portraits and the ink, I went for it anyway.
I decided that I like the stronger shadows better. Gives me something else to grab onto with the sepia ink, but all in all, I don't think this is a bad attempt, for a first attempt. Usually, when I do portraits, I do myself... since I am always there and I don't complain when I model. And since the advent of digital photography, I don't even need a mirror, I can just snap a picture and paint it from my camera.
ink on peper
Like here. A painting of a snapshot. This is definitely not my best self portrait, but I'm okay with it. Remember, part of this whole series, aside from getting my numbers up on my 100 in 100 challenge, is to take baby steps towards the harder challenges. Experimenting. Trying new things. Lowering the stakes and the pressure that I put on myself to get things right, and be perfect.
The process of trying out new things with low stakes is also a process of being open to whatever comes... whether it is a surprising aspect of a medium or a new idea of what I might try next.
ink on paper
(does anyone else find it funny that my page sizes are going up in half inch increments?)
This last painting was done this morning when I had a brilliant idea to use acrylic on top of my ink paintings... except I liked how this turned out, with it's strong shadows and pretty girl, so much, that I didn't want to touch it with the experiment.
You see? I stopped the willingness to try new things because I got attached to this "perfection." Not that I think it's perfect, but that I didn't want to "ruin" it.
Luckily, with this series, I am gaining enough facility in the medium and style that I can paint another head of a girl and experiment with that one. Maybe I should go back to my usual head of a girl, so that I can feel more comfortable with trying something new without ruining the existing work.
Being an artist does not mean you are always confident in what you create. Taking chances is part of the territory. Every blank page is the chance to make a masterpiece or a disaster that will make you climb back into bed and hide under the covers.
Learning to get out there, becoming comfortable with the risk, trying things that you've never done before... facing your fears... this is part of being an artist. This is part of being a human, actually. It's a hard lesson, and sometimes you have to relearn it.

Cambodian-Japanese bank Maruhan Japan opened an office in Vientiane, the capital of Laos, on Saturday, making it the second Cambodian bank and the first Japanese bank to come to that country.
Maruhan's presence in Laos would boost economic and investment ties between the two ASEAN member states, the bank said in a press release, adding that it hoped the move would attract more Japanese investors to both Laos and Cambodia.
"We are proud to support the commercial and financial development of Laos PDR which, due to its key location and the potential for the development of its transport infrastructure, has been highlighted as a future transport hub within the ASEAN region," the bank's chairman, Han Chang-Woo, said.
"We are excited about the opportunities this kind of development will create, and we know that others are keen to capitalise on these opportunities too."
Locally owned Acleda Bank set up a branch in Laos in 2008 and now has 28 branches in 10 provinces.
"I think the market there is really good, because we've had huge demand. The presence of Maruhan will give more options to customers," Acleda president In Channy said, adding that his bank had been profitable in Laos since February of last year.
Last year, Maruhan opened a representative office in Myanmar after the country opened its long-closed economy to international trade and investment.

The Black Dungeon Doorway
Date: 18, 4, 10, 2069
The Black Dungeon Doorway
The Black Dungeon Doorway is a Science Fiction/Fantasy Novel with a good dosage of Humor and Horror which I, Kyle Lance Proudfoot, have written. It is a romping metaphysical exploration through multiple realities with 4 characters: Orthe, Wodora, Aera and Pyre. With magical and technological devices and telepathic, psychic, telekinetic and magical abilities we go through worlds, progressing through Planes Of Existence. This happens through blinking doorways, doors, portals or gates with sensory panoramas opening up and new dimensions of mind, body and soul being discovered... Throughout our adventure, quest or mission we think, telepathically communicate, talk, converse, philosophize, debate and battle to explore the nature of reality. Regardless of your own opinions and beliefs, one cannot deny within the one big reality the existence of multitudinal different observations and experiences, thus multiverses. The storyline leads us to a greater discovery of our god-like heroic nature. In the stunning conclusion, there is a higher realization of the true and higher Power and Energy Level's in reality and how in some way we can each become Immortal!
The Black Dungeon Doorway is not only a dark dungeon into the realms of the subconscious and/or unconscious but also a maze and puzzle as indicated by the chapter titles. In many ways, it is also not only a 4D symbolic representation and construction of the Universe but also of the human mind and various bodies, aspects and layers which we each possess. If you ask me, the Astral Plane or Dream World is not only symbolic, figurative and/or metaphorical but quite literal, especially in the After Life...
The Black Dungeon Doorway is Part 1 of a trilogy. The second part is Planes Of Existence. The third and final part is The Door Of Light or Door Of Light. All three books are based on the complete MMORPG System which I have developed starting with Apotheum Colluseum, the Battle System of The Free Show.

Another example exhibited at Galerie Aronowitsch, Stockholm, 13 January - 7 February 1996.

"In March 1994, a beautiful turn-of-the-century building on Strandvägen in Stockholm burned down. Helene Schmitz grew up in an apartment in the building, and coincidentally the conflagration
had started in that very flat. Soon after the fire, Schmitz documented the suite of rooms. The result was a remarkable series of photographs:
There are pictures of devastation and fire-ravaged memories. But paradoxically, many of the pictures are quite beautiful. Soot covers the walls and objects like fresh snow, creating harmonious patterns.
For some reason, the fire spared some deep-red drapes. Their contrast against the sooty gray / black walls is beautiful. It's an unsettling beauty." – John Peter Nilsson, translated quote
The "Livingroom" series features eight different images, taken in Schmitz's childhood home. They were shown for the first time at the Galerie Aronowitsch in the winter of 1996 and have since been exhibited in several places in Sweden, France and Finland.

Martin Luther King Jr. was born in 1929. He was a Baptist minister and social activist who was very important to the Civil Rights Movement in America. He worked for equal rights for African Americans during the mid-1950s and into the 1960s until he was assassinated in 1968. Martin Luther King Jr. was inspired by the teachings of nonviolence from Mahatma Gandhi. Martin Luther King wanted equality for African Americans, the poor, and victims of injustice. He used peaceful protests to create change in society. He was the driving force behind events such as the Montgomery Bus Boycott and the March on Washington. These events were responsible for changing the laws in America such as the Civil Rights Act of 1964 and the Voting Rights Act of 1965. Martin Luther King Jr. was awarded the Nobel Peace Prize in 1964. He is remembered each year on Martin Luther King Jr. Day, a U.S. federal holiday since 1986.
POn December 1, 1955, Rosa Parks, a secretary of the local National Association for the Advancement of Colored People chapter, refused to give up her seat to a white passenger on a Montgomery, Alabama bus and was arrested. Activists, led by Martin Luther King Jr., coordinated a bus boycott that lasted for 381 days. This caused the bus company and local downtown business owners to lose a lot of money. The Supreme Court ruled segregated seating on public buses was unconstitutional in November 1956.
During what became the Civil Rights Movement, Martin Luther King Jr. traveled across the country and around the world. He gave lectures and speeches on nonviolent protest and civil rights. He met with religious leaders, activists, and political leaders. He wrote books and articles and advocated for changes to laws that discriminated against African Americans all around the country. His house was firebombed. He was stabbed. He received death threats, but he did not quit.
King and other Civil Rights leaders used the philosophy of nonviolence during the Birmingham, Alabama campaign of 1963, in which activists used a boycott, sit-ins and marches to protest segregation, unfair hiring practices, and other injustices in one of America's most racially divided cities. Martin Luther King was arrested for his involvement on April 12, 1963. While he was in jail he wrote "Letter from Birmingham Jail," an letter to a group of white clergymen who had criticized his tactics. In that letter he defended his use of nonviolent civil disobedience to bring about change.
Later that year, Martin Luther King Jr. worked with a number of civil rights and religious groups to organize the March on Washington for Jobs and Freedom. He organized a peaceful political rally designed to shed light on the injustices African Americans continued to face across the country. Held on August 28, 1963 the March on Washington was attended by 200,000 to 300,000 people. The March on Washington was thought of as one of the most important moments in the history of the Civil Rights Movement. It helped to pass the Civil Rights Act of 1964.
During the March on Washington, Martin Luther King made his most famous speech, "I Have a Dream." He called for peace and equality between the races. It was delivered on the steps of the Lincoln Memorial – a monument to the president who a century earlier had brought down the institution of slavery in the United States — he shared his vision of a future in which "this nation will rise up and live out the true meaning of its creed: 'We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal.'" Later that year he was named Man of the Year by TIME magazine and in 1964 became the youngest person ever awarded the Nobel Peace Prize.
In the spring of 1965, Martin Luther King went to Selma, Alabama to protest for voting rights for African Americans. The protesters were treated very badly and subjected to significant violence, even though they were peaceful. What made Selma different is that the violence was captured on television. The brutal scene outraged many Americans and inspired supporters from across the country to gather in Selma and take part in a march to Montgomery led by King and supported by President Lyndon B. Johnson, who sent in federal troops to keep the peace. That August, Congress passed the Voting Rights Act, which guaranteed the right to vote – first awarded by the 15th Amendment of the Constitution – to all African Americans.
Later, Martin Luther King began to address issues beyond African American Civil Rights to issues such as the Vietnam War and poverty among Americans of all races. In 1967, he involved himself in a program known as the Poor People's Campaign, which was to include a massive march on the capital. On the evening of April 4, 1968, Martin Luther King Jr. was shot while standing on the balcony of a motel in Memphis, Tennessee where he had traveled to support a sanitation workers' strike. He died at the age of 39. After years of campaigning by activists, members of Congress, Coretta Scott King, and many others, President Ronald Reagan signed a bill in 1983 creating a United States federal holiday in honor of Martin Luther King. It is observed on the third Monday in January and was first celebrated in 1986.
Happy Martin Luther King Jr. Day. We may celebrate his life and accomplishments one day of the year, but we should celebrate his philosophy every day of every year. And more than that, we should honor him by supporting equality and practicing nonviolence and tolerance and love every day of our lives.

Andy undertook his apprenticeship with Hillier Nurseries when he left school over forty years ago. He was trained in all aspects of horticulture and gardening. Since that time he has continued to work within the profession in various roles. He has a vast knowledge of all aspects of garden management. Consultations can be one-off or arranged on a regular basis depending on the size of your garden or the advice required:
After every consultation a written summary is produced of all the areas discussed and advice given.
Planting Plans
Angela offers bespoke planting plans for garden borders designed to attract butterflies & bees.
For the past eighteen years we have been developing and maintaining the shrub and herbaceous borders at the large country garden of Cheriton Cottage. From a mainly spring garden, we have brought the herbaceous borders into the summer. We always use lots of species plants and this creates a soft, relaxed, cottage garden atmosphere.
The borders are a good indication of the kind of planting schemes we produce. The garden is now open once a year to the public and the date can be found on our Events Page.
Our daughter Roxana has taken this a step further. While keeping with the wildlife friendly ethos, she has trained in all aspects of border designing from shrubberies and herbaceous borders to bulbs and grasses, she can offer a much more varied palette of planting and ideas.
Between us all we are confident we can design and supply borders for all tastes and situations.
Garden Designs
Roxana is a successful Garden Designer. She studied at Merrist Wood College twelve years ago and was awarded the 'Best Design Student' two years running. She can be contacted via the nursery or why not visit her website to view just a few of her beautiful garden designs.

Go New England Patriots!
I am hoping that the New England Patriots have another outstanding game, like they did last week! Today they are playing the St. Louis Rams and maybe Matt Cassel and the team will be able to pull off another win of 41-7?
I think they have a very good shot of doing it, but they all have to pull together and work as a team! St. Louis can be beat, and then we will be that much closer to the playoffs. They are playing at Gillette Stadium, and I wish I was there!
Now, in light of the Patriots game, I have to show you something that I found that I think is absolutely hysterical!!!! I visited this site: Really Bad Tattoos, and laughed my butt off at the one this poor person got!!!
Okay....to the right....what the patriots logo should look like.....
See, strong looking player in Patriots gear, holding a football and looking kind of mean, right????
Now for the hilarious.................
Some poor schmuck got this tattooed on his leg for all time!!!! I am still laughing so hard, even as I post this......
What the heck is this supposed to be?? First off, it looks like a monkey (no offense to monkeys mind you).....and second, what is with that pose???? It looks like his hip is dis-jointed, and his butt is sticking out in some weird angle. Also, what is with the bandages on this guys arms? Does the tattoo artist think that he needs them? The uniform is torn at the sleeves to reveal a supposedly buff arm, but only one, and the fingers look like a kid drew them!
OMG! I can't believe they think this is a Patriots tattoo???
I can tell you one thing, if this ever was put on my body anywhere......I would immediately have it removed, and never, ever...would there be a picture of it for the whole world to see!!
I can't believe it! I wouldn't have paid for it, and would have totally sued the tattoo parlor where it was done. I mean, come on, I think my grandson could draw the patriots logo better than this one!!!
Anyway, that is my humor before the game..........Go Patriots!!!!

Perhaps the type that truly are rich. Not, "Im rich mate!" bought a small sports car, a boob job for the Mrs, got "loud and in peoples face rich."

Early plans suggest Scotland as new home of commercial spaceports
Bonnie Scotland could be host to one of the first commercial spaceports outside of the United States according to new plans that have just been unveiled by the country's government.
Scottish voters will soon decide whether or not the country claims independent from the United Kingdom - and according to its government today, only national sovereignty could lead to heavy development of its space industry. A Scottish spaceport would primarily serve to launch satellites, but there are hopes it would also draw in attention from lofty galactic tourism operators like Virgin and XCor.
Chief Secretary to the Treasury, Liberal Democrat Danny Alexander, suggested Scotland could take a pivotal role in developing the UK's space industry. The Scottish government, however, seemed to suggest the country could be better going at it alone. "Scotland is proving that it has the expertise to attract and support such a specialized, global industry," a spokesperson told the BBC. "And as such an independent Scotland will be an attractive option for spaceport pioneers."

#10 - Kitsilano Beach
Kits Beach is somewhere we tend to forget most of the year, being it's a fair distance from our home in East Vancouver, but every time we go, I always have such a nice time. The kids love to play in the fantastic playground they have, which, believe me, has kept them busy for hours running from station to station. The beach area itself has an almost Californian quality, which in the summer is the perfect atmosphere, with the boardwalk right at the edge of the beach hosting numerous people walking or riding, and wherever you sit on the beach, you get a perfect view westward, where the mountains end and the water opens to the straight. At sunset, it's a beautiful place to sit and be reminded why it is we chose Vancouver to be our home.
#9 - Crab Park
This funny little waterfront park is tucked away from the city, a place literally on the other side of the tracks. From False Creek you head North towards Gastown, riding along the Carrall Street separated lane, then along Water St until you reach the end on Main Street. You then head up and over a ramp, past the lions, and on the downwards slope you see it, a small gem of a park with a perfect view of the Burrard inlet and the North Shore Mountains. Whenever we visit the park, I feel like I'm in a secret place that only a select few have heard of. It's almost always quiet, and so whenever I visit I feel like just sitting and taking in the ocean air and beautiful views.
#8 - Central Valley Greenway East
We live very close to where the 10th Avenue Bikeway intersects with the Central Valley Greenway, and while most trips take us West, I really do enjoy our trips along the CVG. Usually we ride it to do errands, like groceries, or those special occasions when I get to go to the art store, but there's something about this pathway that I love. Maybe it's the fact that for most of the ride you're separated from cars, or that you get to follow along with the Skytrain a VIA Rail tracks, meaning every once and a while you get a glimpse of a passenger car heading in or out of town. Or maybe it's because it's one of the quieter bikeways, meaning when we ride as a family, we almost always get to ride side-by-side. Whatever it is, it's holds a special place for me and that's why it's on this list.
#7 - Hillcrest Park and Pool
We made many treks out to Hillcrest this year, many to visit the pool, which is always a great treat after a hot summer bike ride. But there's something else great about this destination, and that's Nat Bailey Stadium. Each summer we try to catch at least one Vancouver Canadians game. We're not huge baseball fans, but there's something about watching it live, getting to participate in the seventh inning stretch, and the deliciously bad for you ball park food. During the season, they also host firework evenings, so for the price of a ticket, which averages about $15-20, you get to watch a successful ball team (winners of the Northwest Division two years in a row), but you get a fantastic fireworks display to round out a great evening. Of course, one of the added bonuses of riding to Hillcrest is that since you've reached one of the higher point in Vancouver, the whole ride home is downhill! Can't argue with that when it's late and you're hauling two sleeping children in a trailer.
#6 - Adanac Bikeway/Union Market
The Adanac Bikeway holds a special place for my family and I. For my husband and I, we love riding through the old Strathcona neighbourhood. The area has a lot of character, and there's a real sense of community whenever we're in the area. In the summer, the kids love to play at MacLean Park, which has a great play area, as well as a splash pad for cooling down. We also like to treat ourselves after a long ride with a stop at Union Market. This cute little shop is situated right along the bikeway, and is a destination for many residents in the area for a coffee and a chat with a friend. Our kids like to stop and get "candy pop", better known as cream soda. As I've said before, life's about the simple pleasures!
#5 - Stanley Park Seawall/English Bay
This pick is sort of a no brainer. Everyone who lives in Vancouver or has visited knows there's something pretty amazing about walking or riding along the expansive seawall around 404 hectares of West Coast Rainforest right in the heart of the city. Some of our rides have included seeing bald eagles, one of the many herons who nest there every year, and even seals. Almost always, we tend to end our rides at English Bay. The kids get to play at the beach, and we almost always get a treat from one of the shops along Denman Street. It's just a great place to be any time of the year, even on a cool damp winter's day.
#4 - 10th Avenue Bikeway
If you've been following this blog for a while, you've probably caught on that I spend a lot of time on the 10th Avenue Bikeway. It's the city's East/West connector, going all the way out to UBC if you follow it long enough, but I've never ventured further than Alma by bike, being less than eager to climb to get to the campus. There is a stretch of road, from Cambie, heading East to Clark, where the trees create a beautiful canopy over the street, and I love to ride through as the seasons change. In the Spring, the Cherry Blossoms create the look of cotton candy overhead, giving way to summer and the shade from the immense Chestnut trees, followed by the sometimes harrowing experience of falling chestnuts and leaves in the fall. Riding along this bikeway is one of those experiences that makes me so happy to be able to ride my bike in this beautiful city!
#3 - Olympic Village
Without intending it, Olympic Village ended up becoming THE start and destination for many of our rides this year. It's such a convenient place to meet up with a group of people, and you're left with many options of where to head from there being directly on the seawall. For the Velo Family, we stopped during so many rides here for a rest. While the children ran through the plaza, my husband and I would get to enjoy a coffee from the nearby cafe, reminiscing about our ride that day, or just taking a moment to reflect on where life has taken us so far. It is also where we spent our wedding anniversary this year, enjoying a glass of wine and a view of the city lights across False Creek.
#2 - Granville Island
Granville Island is by far one of my favourite places to go in the summer with the kids. With the fantastic new playground, the splash pad and the water slide, it's hours of summer fun for absolutely no money. And the seawall ride to get there is nothing to complain about. About once a week I would head over with the kids this past summer, complete with a packed picnic lunch for when my husband would walk down from his office just a few blocks away on South Granville. I have so many great memories from our trips here over the summer, including sliding down the water slide with my son in what will surely be his last year needing a parent with him. I'm actually a bit sad that we haven't gone as much now that the weather's become so wet and cold, but I have to remind myself that warmer days are on their way again...eventually!
#1 - Sunset Beach

These cavalry will bring some degree of battlefield mobility to the White Eagle Clan. I still have a third infantry unit to paint this month.

White Eagle Clan Cavalry
My second Arab clan for my June convention game, The Relief of Wadi Zoum-Zoum, will be called the White Eagle clan. So far they have two spear armed infantry units, one of which can be seen at this link. I've now added a unit of rifle armed cavalry made from 11 Falcon Miniatures Arab cavalry and 1 unidentified Arab cavalryman. Like the Red Hawk cavalry (see previous post), they are mounted on Miniature Figurines horses.

Thanks, the name actually comes from a Volkswagen car ad. We were planning our Green Nile several years ago and the ad where the boy keeps saying, "Zoom! Zoom!" was on. It sounded vaguely North African and the rest is, as is said, history. All I did was slightly change the spelling.

Nelson Mandela has died aged 95 at his home.
The former South African president had been ill for some time and was admitted to hospital earlier this year with a recurring lung infection.
President Jacob Zuma made the announcement, saying: "He is now at peace".
In a televised address, Zuma said: "Our nation has lost its greatest son. Our people have lost a father.
"What made Nelson Mandela great was precisely what made him human. We saw in him what we seek in ourselves."
David Cameron tweeted his condolences, adding: "A great light has gone out in the world. Nelson Mandela was a hero of our time. I've asked for the flag at No10 to be flown at half mast."
Zuma said: "Fellow South Africans, our beloved Nelson Rolihlahla Mandela, the founding president of our democratic nation has departed.
"He is now resting. He is now at peace.
"Our nation has lost its greatest son. Our people have lost a father."
Zuma said all of South Africa's thoughts were with Mr Mandela's family, friends and those who fought alongside him during his struggle for equality.
"Our thoughts are with the South African people who today mourn the loss of the one person who more than any other came to embody their sense of a common nation," he said from Pretoria.
"Our thoughts are with the millions of people across the world who embraced Madiba as their own and who saw his cause as their cause.
"This is the moment of our deepest sorrow. Our nation has lost his greatest son. Yet what made Nelson Mandela great was precisely what made him human - we saw in him what we seek in ourselves and in him we saw so much of ourselves."
Zuma said the man known as Madiba brought South Africa together and would be afforded a state funeral. South African flags would be lowered to half mast from tomorrow until the funeral, he said.
"As we gather to pay our last respects, let us conduct ourselves with the dignity and respect that Madiba personified," he said.
"Let us be mindful of his wishes and the wishes of his family as we gather wherever we are in the country and wherever we are in the world.
"Let us recall the values for which Madiba fought.
"Let us reaffirm his vision of a society in which none is exploited, oppressed or dispossessed by another."
Zuma finished his address by saying simply: "We will always love you Madiba. May your soul rest in peace. God bless Africa."

Sooyoung was seen ten days ago at the Incheon Airport on her way to Bangkok for the next performance on the Girl's Generation World Tour. The "cheerful princess" was toting a blue reptile skin bag from Double M Milano, with a cute poofy accessory attached. Sooyoung is a model for the brand in Korea.

In the past, I have been asked to contribute articles to other people's blog posts. While I have always been open to offering my readers the similar opportunity to read guest posts from other authors, I have never fully communicated my policy to the public. After reading a blog post from Michael Hyatt about his Guest Post Guidelines, I was inspired to write my own.
Effective immediately, I will accept guest posts. Currently, I do not plan to publish more than one post per week. These will likely appear on Tuesday each week.
Your post must be on one of five topics:
- Strategy
- Technology
- Leadership
- Sales & Marketing
- Operational Excellence
Your post cannot be an advertisement for your product or the equivalent of a sponsored post.
If you would like to submit a guest post to this blog, follow the instructions below for consideration. Only guest posts that meet these criteria will be considered for publishing.
- The post must be useful to the readers of this blog and deal with issues that are relevant to Hardware Maintenance, Service Lifecycle Management, Reverse Logistics, and Field Service professionals.
- The post must not criticize or condemn software vendors, hardware manufacturers, or service providers.
- The post must be grammatically correct and well-written.
- The post must not include marketing-related links and must not be self-promotional or sales oriented.
- The post may include up to three byline links: one for your blog or Web site, one for your bio or "About" page, and one for your Twitter username (optional).
- Guest posts must be original and may not have been published elsewhere online.
- You agree not to publish it anywhere else, including your own blog or Web site. You may, however, post a brief "tease" or summary on your site that links to the post.
- Guest posts should be at least 500 words long and no more than 800 words.
- I will likely copyedit your post for grammar, punctuation, spelling, etc. If I make substantive changes (unlikely), I will email the post back to you for your approval before posting.
- I may provide a short introduction or conclusion to your post to provide context or the rationale as to why I think the post is important. I will make sure that my comments are set off from yours stylistically, so that my readers are clear that these are mine and not yours.
The fact that you have written a post and submitted it to me does not in any way obligate me to publish it. I will only publish guest posts that in my sole judgment add value to my readers.
Furthermore, if I do not approve your guest post, I will not explain why I did not approve it or provide any detail.
If your post meets the above guidelines:
- Please email it to me for consideration. It may take me 2–3 weeks to respond.
- Please include a one to two-sentence byline that includes what you do, along with your blog address and your Twitter and/or Facebook address.
- Please confirm that you are willing to engage with my readers in the comments about your post. This is hugely important and a non-negotiable. My readers have come to expect this.
- Please include the post in the body of the e-mail. DO NOT include it as an attachment. Also, please do not include HTML coding.
If I reject your post, you are obviously free to do whatever you want with it, including publishing it elsewhere.

When we travel, we anticipate the differences that we will encounter. The weather and topography will be different. The language might be all but unknown to us. And the food…well, the food is one difference we always look forward to! Sampling the cuisine of a far-off land is undeniably one of the most pleasurable things for us when we travel.
So imagine our surprise when we discovered a rather unexpected similarity: fried bread dough as a breakfast item in both China and Newfoundland.We learned about you tiao the morning of our bus trip to the Great Wall at Mutianyu, when we made an early dash from the hotel towards the bus station. Faced with several hours on a city bus with no time for a leisurely breakfast, we joined the crowd at the restaurant across the street from our hotel to check out what was on offer.
We were delighted to discover the Chinese version of the familiar-to-us toutons, shaped in stick form which meant they were easy to tuck into a bag and munch on as we crammed into the crowded bus.
While we would have welcomed the molasses that accompanies a feed of toutons back home, that would undeniably have made for a slightly messier meal on the go!

For my Homemade Holiday Gift I decided to create a glitter ornament for Hannah's cheer coach!
I started with a clear glass ornament and used Minwax Polycrylic inside the ornament and rolled it around to cover then added glitter. The glitter sticks to the protective finish from the Polycrylic! If you haven't tried one, they are lots of fun...
Samantha just so happens to have several ornament boxes to gift your ornament in!
I am using this one:
She also has these:
Here is a look at my project:
I used vinyl to cut the coach in two colors and layered it on top of each other and then did the same with the megaphone and year. I cut circles from three vinyl colors and randomly layered those on the ornament as well. You can find the bow for the box HERE.
1. Cut out the box pieces and fold on the score lines.
2. Add adhesive to the side tab and adhere the box sides together.
3. Push your large flap down on the bottom then bring the side in and tuck under.
4. Tuck the large tab in the bottom.
5. Your box will look like this now.
6. Set your ornament on the shelf.
7. Place the ornament in the box. Put the second shelf in to hold it in place.
8. Close the box lid.
9. Add in your box and embellish as desired!
These make such fun gifts!

|Forge Twintake Cold Air Induction Kit
Audi S3 (8P) 2.0 FSi Turbo
The Twintake induction kit has shown improvements of up to 17hp in our tests, when compared to the original air box/ filter system. All the parts required are included in the Kit. This kit is available in Black only with Black hoses.
Which Kit Fits Your vehicle ?
Due to the different engines used and the different model badges employed it can be confusing as to which kit is required. The FSI is the motor that VW/Audi used from 2004-2009 approx across their whole range. However in the US this was known as the FSiT Then in 2006, there was a trim level on some Seats and VW's called the TFSi which still used the FSi engine. In 2009 the group moved to the 'new' TSI engines and they are gradually coming through to all models, which are badged TSI on the engine cover. However there is still a version of the Golf Mk6 called the TFSi with a badge on the back of the car !! Even more confusing, the Golf R and Scirocco R both have TSi engine covers but are in fact FSi !! To try and summarise, and bar a few exceptions FSi 2004-2009, TSi 2009 on. However, every version of our Twintake kits are different in some way and are specific to one vehicle model. The kits are not interchangeable and we do not sell the components separately. If you are in doubt as to which kit is required please follow this guide.
1. Determine manufacturer – Audi, SEAT or VW
2. Determine model - so for a VW Golf this could be Golf MK5 or Golf MK6
3. Determine Engine – All our Twintakes are for the 2 litre VAG group petrol engines only. The earlier engine was found in the MK5 Golf, badged as the FSi in the UK market, and easily distinguished as it incorporated the air filter in the engine cover. The later engine, badged in the UK as TSi, is found in some MK5 Golfs, all MK6 Golfs and is easily distinguished as the OEM air filter box is separate from the engine cover.
4. Double check your MAF sensor part number. Since 2009 the VW/Audi gorup have been changing the MAF sensors on their cars to a 'more advanced' sensor which resists tuning and has the mounting plate mounted 180 degrees rotated from the original. However, many cars produced since 2009 still have the old sensor. The part number is printed in white on the top of the MAF sensor. 06F 906 461A - works fine. 06J 906 461D - will not work!!
Vehicles / Twintake part numbers
Audi S3 with OEM air filter built into engine cover – Pt No.FMIND12E
Audi A3 with OEM air filter built into engine cover – Pt No.FMIND12G
SEAT Leon Cupra with OEM air filter built into engine cover – Pt No.FMIND12D
SEAT Leon (not Cupra) with OEM air filter incorporated into engine cover – Pt No.FMIND12F
VW MK5 Golf with OEM air filter built into engine cover ie BPY engines (2005-8 in USA or 2005-9 in UK) – Pt No.FMIND12
VW MK5 Golf ED30 with OEM air filter built into engine cover – Pt No.FMIND12B
VW MK5 Golf with OEM air filter separate from engine cover (CBFA) Pt No. FMIND12A and FMFIL28**
VW Scirocco R with OEM air filter incorporated into engine cover – Pt No.FMIND12K
** If you have the engine code CBFA, which has the SAI system 28mm hose connection to the front of the OEM air box, you will require an additional breather filter. Please see FMFIL28.
Note: Contents of kits supplied may vary with different vehicle models. No heatshields are supplied with the Seat Leon or Audi S3.

This past week GANA held it's Fall Conference in Kansas City and as always with events like these there's a great deal of information and education (as well as primo networking) available. So a few takeaways from that event…
-- If you haven't heard the acronyms LCA or EPD, get ready, you will certainly be hearing more from them and about them in the future. LCA stands for Life Cycle Analysis and EPD is for Environmental Product Declarations. This is a trend that started a few years ago that boasts more transparency in a products environmental make-up. Green building rating systems are a driver of it but so are architects and building owners. Mark Silverberg of Technoform, who always leads thoughtful discussions on serious energy issues was great in taking the audience through the options. This will be an area to watch. But I will also throw it out to you my dear readers- are you seeing LCA or EPD in your specifications?
-- Also in the same session that discussed the LCA/EPD, Dr. Tom Culp gave some updates on the various code and ratings bodies. The push to be sustainable seems to getting more organized with two groups combining standards and I liked the fact that one standard has an angle that really promotes the use of dynamic glazing. As anyone who knows me, knows I am a fan of that technology, so seeing it the approach here was a daymaker.
-- In addition I learned that the NFRC hired a consulting firm to among other things "help them understand the commercial manufacturers value chain and what will encourage them to adopt the program" Seriously. I was among many who told them these things way back in 2004. I was mocked and villified as I wrote, debated, argued that the commercial world was different. And in the end so much of what our industry tried to teach them was ignored. Amazingly in the end they could've saved themselves a ton of money and resources if they would've listened. Oh well. And despite this move I do not believe they'll ever really want to understand the commercial world.
-- The conference featured a tour of the AGC Float Glass facility in Spring Hill, Kansas. For me it was the 7th float plant I have toured and I still learned new things. The AGC folks really did a tremendous job with this effort, the plant was spotless and impressive. Major thanks to Gus Trupiano of AGC for setting this up.
-- Kansas City also featured some great glass and glazing viewing. Really unique buildings, excellent usage of glass for the most part, and the downtown area was very nice.
-- Next up on the North American show/conference schedule is GlassBuild America and the Glazing Executives Forum. You seriously can never have enough education, information, or networking in your life.
-- But before GlassBuild America dominates the landscape I am excited about getting to attend my 2nd glasstec in Germany. That show kicks off in a few weeks and now that I have one under my belt, I am pumped to take the show on again. I look forward to reporting back on here some of what I see and experience. And if you are headed over there, I look forward to running into you along the way!
-- Last this week… the always great Twitter feed of Conners Sales Group (@ConnersSales) had an incredible link posted a few days ago. Check this one out. It is an "All Glass Office" and when I say "All Glass" I mean ALL GLASS. Now I love glass. Live for it. Want it everywhere- but I have to admit this actually was event too much for me. That would be live or work in as obviously if I was the fabricator or glazier, I would LOVE these jobs….
LINKS of the WEEK
I hate companies that gouge. I get profits and wanting to make a lot… but gouging is terrible and what the makers of the EpiPen (I have to buy at least 6 a year) are doing is criminal.
And while we are on the path of things that are very wrong in our world… how about the debtors prison? I get the concept, hate the execution.
This is just 30 minutes from me and so comical. I think Canada needs to build a wall….LOL
VIDEO of the WEEK
The turning of the tables… robbers take on a cell phone store. Manager runs out the back and locks the bad guys in the store.

Yay! I was so pleased today to discover where 'my' sea bass had slunk off to. Through the summer I'd enjoyed my daily view into the world of the bass that live in the harbour. I'm not prepared to say exactly where they are in case they get taken for someone's table, which would really destroy my viewing pleasure. I call them bass – I'm a long way from being convinced that's what they really are – probably some other kind of Labrid…but I call them bass – more to do with their banded reddish colours than any other more scientific indication.
The image above shows off one of the bass. The other fish is a good sized spotty, so, the bass is clearly not a spotty. The dark blob in front of the bass is a mussel – I'd guess it's an average sized adult – about 100mm long. I'd guess the spotty is in the region of 200 mm, which would make the bass about 400mm long – give or take a millimetre.
I used to watch the bass (it looked like a pair) almost every day through the summer. They seemed to occupy about 4 metre long by 1 metre wide by 2 metre deep territory, and although they appeared to continually be roving over the mussel beds covering the wharf piles, I never saw them interact with each other or with the spotties. Over the winter the section of wharf broke away and the bass vanished with it. As usual, I'm more interested watching the fish than catching than catching the fish. In their new location the lighting is better, so hopefully in time I'll score some better images. Their new space (if it is the same fish) appears to be more long lasting, as well as better lit. Real estate – everything in Wellington is about upgrading.
