MaK G 1203 BB - Wikipedia
Mittelweserbahn (MWB) G 1203 BB
1982-91[1]
60 m (197 ft)[1]
axle distance 2.400 m (94.49 in)[1]
MTU 8V 396 TC13 : 745 kW (999 hp)[1]
Cummins engine : 761 kW (1,021 hp)*[1]
33–70 km/h (21–43 mph)[1]
For export to Gabon
The MaK G 1203 BB is a type of four axle B'B' off-centre cab locomotive built by the Maschinenbau Kiel factory.
1.1 Gabon locomotives
The locomotive is an updated version of the MaK G 1201 BB with a MTU 396 engine replacing the MTU 333 engine. The hydrodynamic converter remained the same, a Voith L4r4zU2.
The locomotive design is similar to the MaK G 1202 BB and MaK G 1204 BB but with an eight-cylinder V engine instead of the twelve-cylinder engines on the higher-powered locomotives; the external dimensions of are identical, and the appearance very similar.
Nineteen locomotives were built for private railways of Germany (and Austria), including Seehafen Kiel (Port of Kiel), and the Klockner steel works (now ArcelorMittal Bremen).[1]
Gabon locomotives[edit]
Six locomotives were built in 1984 for the railways of Gabon (Office du chemin de fer transgabonais) or OCTRA, with Cummins engines instead of MTU engines. They received numbers "BB 531" to "BB 536"[1]

Jim Fanning's Tulgey Wood: Don't Be Scared Of Stamps!
Those Universal Monsters really get around--especially when they were showcased on official United States postage stamps. One of the greatest (and most visible) honors ever accorded these iconic screen figures, the United States Postal Service released these spooky stamps in 1997. The USPS offered a complete set of the Classic Movie Monsters releases in this specially designed folder, in order to appeal to both stamp collectors (otherwise known as philatelists) and fans of the frightening film stars. Painted by artist Thomas Blackshear, who has painted a number of other US stamps, these particular stamps feature the creatures that everyone loves to fear. Posted by

Why you should drink a cup full of bacteria
Water kefir is a refreshing beverage full of healthy probiotics. It has a low glycemic index and no caffeine. It is typically a tart beverage, but the sweetness of the water kefir can be adjusted based on how long you allow fermentation to occur. As it is a fermented beverage, it takes about 1-2 days to make.
Why Should I Consume Probiotics?
Our guts are full of bacteria….with over 10^14microbial cells of 1,000 types of bacteria. These bacteria have been linked to:
inhibition of potential pathogens
lowering of gas distension (Source)
Over 700 human studies lend support that gut bacteria may ” aid in preventing or treating various GI tract disorders, promoting GI health and preventing metabolic syndrome” (Source)
Current research is now investigating how probiotics can help:
“chronic intestinal inflammation, diarrhea, constipation, vaginitis, irritable bowel syndrome, atopic dermatitis, sepsis, food allergies, and liver disease. Substantial evidence has shown that probiotics can modulate systemic and mucosal immune function, improve intestinal barrier function, alter gut micro-ecology, and exert metabolic effects on the host” (Source)
Sometimes, our healthy bacteria are killed. For example, antibiotics that we take can kill the healthy bacteria and let pathogenic bacteria grow. To help replenish the healthy bacteria, you can take a probiotic or eat a supplemented food, such as yogurt, that contains live cultures. One food product that contains healthy probiotics is water kefir.
Along with offering probiotics, fermented foods, such as keifr, contain enzymes, digested nutrients, amino acids, vitamins and minerals. For example, water kefir contains folic acid and B Vitamins. This can be especially beneficial to vegetarians who often do not consume adequate amount of Vitamin B12.
The following healthy bacteria and yeast are in water kefir:
Most definitely! I bought my water kefir grains from Cultures for Health. They will come with an instruction book which is very easy to follow. Also, there are recipes online that you can follow to customize your drink.
Water kefir grains can be purchased online from multiple sources. These come dried and take a few cycles of sugar water to reconstitute and become active grains. These active grains are added to water (I boil tap water but you can also use bottled, just not tap), dried fruit (I use a dried plum) and natural sugar (I use agave nectar….don’t use honey as it is antibacterial and will kill your kefir grains). This sits in a mason jar with a lid at room temperature for about one day. The time it takes will depend upon how happy your grains are and the temperature of the room. You will know the water kefir is done because the plum or dried fruit will float due to the produced carbonation. Be careful when opening the jar as there can be significant built-up pressure. Also, if possible, check the pressure every several hours and release some pressure if there is too much build-up. Once the fruit floats, the water kefir is ready to drink. The longer you let this beverage sit at room temperature, the more tart it will become and the more nutrients it will have. You can drink this beverage as is or, alternatively, you can do a second fermentation with other fruit. I use frozen mango or blueberries. Make sure if you use fresh or frozen fruit for the second fermentation that you keep this in the fridge or the fruit will rot.
Water Kefir with Floating Fruit…ready to drink!

Automobiles A Concept Goes From Paper Sketch to Metal Reality
By PHIL PATTONOCT. 29, 2013
Gael Buzyn and Niki Smart with a clay model of the Cadillac Elmiraj concept car.
J. Emilio Flores for The New York Times “YOU can lie to yourself quite easily in a sketch,” said Niki Smart, a designer at the General Motors Advanced Design studio in North Hollywood, Calif., who makes dozens of sketches a day.Most of his sketches sell cars of the future, but first they must sell his ideas to his bosses. While each bold drawing comes with the exaggerated wheels and fenders typical at this stage of car design, each also represents a potential vehicle. Mr. Smart often wonders if he’s fooling himself that it can be a good one.“Is there really a car there?” he asks himself. He worries about how his bosses will react. “I wonder if they will see in it what I see in it,” he said. “Is it a good car? Is it the same car?”Such sketches are the beginnings of concept cars, the dream vehicles that manufacturers display to sell themselves to the public. Some are lightly disguised versions of future models that an automaker plans to produce; others are science fiction fantasies; still others morale boosters for lagging companies. Rarely is a concept car turned directly into a production car. Continue reading the main story
In August, the Elmiraj, a long and formidable two-door, four-seat coupe, was unveiled in Pebble Beach, Calif., at the annual gathering where the wealthiest car collectors, executives and design chiefs meet. Then it was displayed for the press in Detroit and New York, and sent off to the Frankfurt auto show.But the life of the Elmiraj began with pencil and paper in California, where GM, like nearly 30 automakers, has located its advance design studio to keep its inspirations undiluted by the practical concerns of production design.If the studio’s North Hollywood address suggests the sprawling lots of Warner Bros., think again: the studio looks like a small warehouse, shielded by tall walls and spruce trees. Inside those walls, a Google satellite view shows, is an oval of pavement. This is where clay car models are placed for viewing outside, because designers want to see their visions in natural light, though privacy must be maintained against early glimpses by outsiders.
A rendering of the Elmiraj.
General Motors This studio works on advanced ideas for all of GM’s brands worldwide and has an international staff of 70, including technology experts, modelers and paint and materials specialists. Mr. Smart was raised in Britain and educated at the Royal College of Art. He worked on the Elmiraj with Gael Buzyn, a French interior designer.The designers worked with the Cadillac design language, a set of visual stylistic conventions called “art and science.” (Many brands have such visual languages, some with names like “fluidic sculpture.”) The art and science language — established in 1999 with the Evoq concept car — has been said to combine the faceting of jewels with the design of stealth fighters, to express both luxury and high technology. This formula helped Cadillac leave behind its image as a maker of gas-guzzling land barges and cars for Elvis.Mr. Smart said the design brief for the Elmiraj was short and abstract, even banal. Clay Dean, Cadillac’s head of advanced design, called for a car expressing the future of luxury and the concept of “the drive.” Mr. Smart had already worked on a concept car with such nebulous marching orders, one meant to express “the journey,” which became the Ciel, an open-top hybrid shown at Pebble Beach two years ago.Since concept cars give midcareer designers like Mr. Smart, 40, a shot at becoming a studio or brand design chief, he was delighted when his sketch for the Elmiraj was pulled from the stack of drawings from the studio’s designers.He described his methods. “I do most of my drawings first in pencil,” he says, “then I scan them into the computer.” In the computer, sketches are fleshed out using software called Alias. From the first scratchy drawings, a more detailed vision of the car emerges.
As with most concept cars, the Elmiraj resulted from a choice among several themes, as designers call them, or basic ideas for the car. Four or five sketches are usually chosen to be made into one-third-scale clay models.The unsung hero in the creation of concepts is the skilled modeler who helps the designer transfer visual ideas to clay. Digital technology lets designers scattered around the globe look at colleagues’ work on other continents. Long before 3-D printers arrived, car studios used computer-driven milling machines to carve full-size clay models.But a human hand is still required for the final touches, to make sure, for instance, that the highlights of light appear energetic and alive. The computer can also lie, it turns out.
General Motors Mr. Buzyn, the car’s interior designer, noted that both he and Mr. Smart liked mid-20th-century modern furniture and brought its influences to the Elmiraj.The Elmiraj’s shape suggests the influence of Charles and Ray Eames’s famous lounge chair and ottoman, he said. There is also something modernist in the use of undecorated expanses of material with minimal accents, whether it is grainy wood or dark steel.The Elmiraj is perhaps the least decorated Cadillac ever, with only three air vents as accents on the exterior. Its grille is matte metal wire, a long way from the gleaming chrome egg crate of Cadillacs past. The interior is accented with bits of rosewood, the original material of the Eames lounger.The Elmiraj is intended to shape anticipations of dealers and customers about a production model. Other concept cars have hinted at new technology. Elements of Cadillac’s Urban Luxury Concept, a gasoline-electric hybrid unveiled at the 2010 Los Angeles Auto Show that Mr. Smart worked on, will show up in the Cadillac ELR, the extended-range electric model due soon.Mr. Smart said he wanted Elmiraj to have a sense of presence and prestige, like large Cadillacs of the past. “I grew up near Silverstone” — a racetrack in Britain — “and my father worked with exhaust systems,” Mr. Smart said. “I looked at all his old magazines and saw those long, low American cars.”
Early in 2013, Mr. Smart signed off on the final version of the Elmiraj clay model and it was sent to Detroit for construction of the actual metal show car. The car was finished in July, a month before its unveiling; sometimes, construction goes on almost until a concept car’s curtain time.Some concept cars are poorly received, seen as false promises by a company. But the Elmiraj met almost universal approval. “The most beautiful thing to come out of Detroit in years,” raved Autoweek. The late-night television host Jay Leno, a noted car collector, praised the Elmiraj.Automotive cognoscenti speculate that the Elmiraj’s lines will appear on a future production car, perhaps the four-door flagship model Cadillac needs to compete with the BMW 7 series or the Mercedes S-Class. This would be built on what GM engineers call the Omega platform, a worldwide specification for engine and chassis arrangement. There is a lot of reality in the Elmiraj design.There is, however, one lie — under the hood. The car’s supercharged V-8 engine is an engineer’s fantasy in these days of stricter mileage standards. The rule is almost ironclad: concept cars boast unrealistic horsepower.

After Spoiled Girl, Carly Simon moved to her fourth record label, Arista, and returned to soundtrack work. This time, she wrote "Coming Around Again" for Heartburn , and it hit number 18 in early 1987, her biggest hit in more than six years. That set up Simon's comeback with this album, which became her biggest hit in a decade, producing two more chart singles, "Give Me All Night" (number 61) and "All I Want Is You" (number 54), and going platinum. Along with "The Stuff That Dreams Are Made Of," all made the Top Ten of the adult contemporary chart. Once again, a bevy of producers -- nine this time -- weighed in, in an attempt to vary Simon's appeal. This time, they included rocker Bryan Adams and lush popmeister Richard Perry. The big difference was that this time, Simon was willing to go to her strengths as a ballad singer rather than romping amid synthesized blips. Better to flirt with retro (there's a nice cover of "As Time Goes By" with a harmonica solo by Stevie Wonder) than disco, at least as far as Simon's audience is concerned. [A two-CD 30th Anniversary Deluxe Edition of Coming Around Again was released in 2017, featuring six bonus tracks on the first disc (including "Let the River Run," which appeared in the film Working Girl and won an Academy Award for Best Original Song in 1989) as well as a bonus disc of 11 live tracks from Simon's HBO special Carly in Concert: Coming Around Again , recorded on Martha's Vineyard in June 1987.] ~ William Ruhlmann, Rovi Read Less

Candace Creations: June 2010
So I love anything with chocolate chips if I haven't mentioned it before...I'm sure I have since I'm a true chocolate lover. I can't believe I haven't posted these on here yet, but here is a staple I have around here. I make up a batch of these awesome chocolate chip granola bars every week. They make a great on the go breakfast, or an easy snack or lunch...you know...whenever you don't have time or feel like putting something together. I pretty much have a little square of these granola bars every day for breakfast with a chocolate protein shake (that I make with just a tad of milk and blend up with ice so it's like a frappacino...and some days I'll add a tsp of instant coffee...LOVE IT!). I have to have a little bit of chocolate every day...before these, I used to eat chocolate bars, but these satisfy my chocolate cravings while being a lot healthier. They also keep me feeling satisfied for longer periods of time than if I were to eat something else like a bowl of cereal. Anyways, here is what I can't live without...
Chocolate Chip and Roasted Almond Granola Bars 1 cup peanut butter (I just guess..I probably do a bit more..so decide if you like your granola bars more moist and chewy or more dry and crumbly when adding PB)
1 cup cereal (honey nut cheerios, chex, honey bunches of oats, rice krispies...whatever you want)
3/4 cup wheat germ (better to have, but sometimes I'll leave it out if I'm making them gluten free for my sister)
1 cup chocolate chips Preheat oven to 350 and spray a 9x13 inch baking pan. (i line mine with foil because it's easier to take the bars out and cut them up.)
You can switch these up to make whatever kind of granola bars you like...add dried fruit, different nuts, whatever!
I found the basic recipe for this a long time ago on allrecipes.com. I don't have the link anymore but ground flax seed and the amount of PB and addition of almonds are my changes. The original recipe called for 3/4 cup PB and they were so crumbly it was hard to eat them.
A Thankful Heart by MORGAN WEISTLINGI was just reading an article on Prevention Magazine's website about healthy life lessons to teach your children and the last one, number 13 really stood out to me, it's about being grateful."If the days of your preschooler parroting back "thank-you" are long over, consider resurrecting the practice. Research suggests that grateful people have more energy and optimism, are less bothered by life's hassles, are more resilient in the face of stress, have better health, and suffer less depression than the rest of us, says psychologist Joan Borysenko, PhD. "People who practice gratitude—and yes, it is something one can learn and improve—are also more compassionate, more likely to help others, less materialistic, and more satisfied with life."If you have young kids, giving thanks together before bedtime or around the dinner table can help develop a healthy and loving attitude toward life. For older kids, let them learn from your habits: Make thanking others an everyday practice for you, and they’ll follow suit. Tell people what a good job they do, how kind they are, or how fabulous they look—as long as it's absolutely true." -13 Healthy Life Lessons to Teach Your Kids By the editors of Prevention.comIsn't it crazy how much control we really have over how we choose to look at life and how that has such an impact on how life affects us? Creating an attitude of gratitude might take practice, but it seems like a rather simple thing to do most of the time. I've heard people in the past preach about the impact having a gratitude journal can be in your life. Even if you tend to look at things negatively and have a difficult time seeing the positives and being grateful, if you can think of at least ONE thing to be grateful for, that's a start...and it can even be something small like, it's a nice day out today...or junior had a long nap today....or jr didn't have a tantrum today...I'm alive....If we can instill this attitude of gratitude into our children, think of what a gift that is to them just based on the statement made above. For more ideas on how to raise grateful children, check out this article I wrote a while back on the subject.How to Raise Grateful Kids
So after unpacking my tempura paint for the no mess finger paint bag, I thought J should have a chance to paint with real paints other than watercolors. I normally love watercolors for her because it's so easy to clean up but I ended up having some stuff handy to prevent a big mess. I used and old plastic plate with sections on it (the kind for picky eaters so the food doesn't touch) and this plastic lid that went with a disposable lasagna dish we received from one of the many kind people who brought us meals after the birth of our new little guy. I put a small cup of water in one section of the plate, then paint in the others and put her paper inside the plastic lid. It worked out great...no mess at all. I got to work in some bonus learning time too because I only gave her the primary colors, plus white and black...so when she started asking for other colors like green, orange and pink, I got to show her how red and white make pink, yellow and blue make green, etc. So we were both happy, she got to expand her knowledge of art mediums and I didn't have a big mess to clean up and I got to recycle the crappy old plastic plate I just knew I'd find a use for as well as the plastic lid since we couldn't save the foil bottom part that had ripped.

Scrapmad: Geevor Tin Mine
In one of my earlier posts, following my first foray into trying out steampunk, I said that I hoped to scrap my photos of our recent trip to the Tin Mine in Cornwall in a this style. I hadn't realised when I said this, that I would get an opportunity to do so this quickly! A good friend of mine recently sent me the fabulous die cut clock which she has designed and cut out on a Pazzles machines. It has sat on my desk for a week while I decided where to use it and then this layout sprang to mind. I inked the corners of my paper, which is by Pink Paislee, with distress inks to highlight the gorgeous damask masking. I printed and cut out the cogs from a collage sheet by Dezinaworld and altered the large cog to make it a more open style gear. I coupled these images with real cogs from old watches.
My letters were cut on my cricut machine in dark grey cardstock to match the clock. However, I had not thought through the faux leather colour and soon realised they would need to be pale to show up. I decided to ink them with VersaMagic White and clear emboss them. I was really pleased with the result as they actually look like tin - result! I ran them through my Xyron Quick Sticker but found that they wouldn't adhere to the faux leather finish. so some fiddly gluing was required! I am really happy with this page as it has all come together really well (hope you agree!) and it was fun. It was a great place to visit and I had lots of great shots which I wanted to use. Best of all, my friend who provided the clock for me lives about a mile from the mine so my page has a great local connection.

Starred Review. "The truth is, we all have cannibals in our closets," writes Travis-Henikoff in her introduction to this meticulously researched, compulsively readable history of mankind's greatest taboo. As she eloquently illustrates, cannibalism has been around for as long as humans, and it's quite possible that its outlaw is a recent development in terms of recorded history. Many readers are no doubt familiar with the Chilean rugby team immortalized in Piers Paul Read's Alive (recounted again here), but not with the fact that widespread cannibalism has been documented in parts of war-torn Africa as recently as 2003. Sadistic serial killers and the oft-stereotyped tribesmen of the Amazon figure prominently, but where Travis-Henikoff truly excels is in her sociological and anthropological analysis, offering thoughtful insights into the whys of cannibalism, lucidly explaining how cannibalism can begin in a society, as well as its historical employment in times of famine, war and even during a period of political witch hunting in Communist China. A brief but entertaining digression into folklore examines cannibalism in fairy tales such as the Brothers Grimm. Throughout, Travis-Henikoff maintains a thoughtful tone, free of judgment, that frequently challenging readers' beliefs. The result is an eminently enjoyable, albeit very dark exploration of a taboo topic that should give armchair anthropologists, sociologists and historians plenty to chew on.

Travis Henikoff's lively and sometimes amusing anthropophagic romp shows that starvation and cultural patterns are often strong enough to counter moral taboos.
Those seeking tales of serial killers à la Hannibal Lecter will be disappointed in these books, as both authors favor in-depth examinations of cannibalism across a wide variety of cultures. Likewise, both discredit the conclusions of William Arens's The Man-Eating Myth, instead asserting that cannibalism has been a very real human practice around the globe. Travis-Henikoff (coauthor, Star Food Revisited), a scholar of paleoanthropology, covers the phenomenon's many raisons d'être, from survival to politically motivated terror. Her perspective as a gastronomist helps to situate cannibalism within a wide range of global culinary practices from the Amazon to the American Southwest to Polynesia. Some sections, e.g., those on archaeological dating and on the Inquisition, could have been shorter, but the book's range is impressive.Raffaele (Smithsonian magazine) focuses on cannibalism in a few particular regions: New Guinea, the Ganges basin, Tonga, and Uganda. He meets with cannibals, the locals who condemn them, and descendents of other known cannibals. His beautiful descriptions of life among these cultures show that cannibalism is a local belief that, unlike the rapidly changing landscape, is still going strong in some places. Unlike Travis-Henikoff, Raffaele maintains that cannibalism not related to survival is an "evil" act, yet his portraits of cannibals show their essential humanity. Both books are highly recommended for public libraries; endnotes and a bibliography additionally recommend Travis-Henikoff.Dan Harms
