Best intro ever? University of Oregon takes field behind bagpipe-playing relief pitcher | Big League Stew - Yahoo Sports
For the past few weeks, I've been wondering how Brian Wilson might be best able to serve the San Francisco Giants as he recovers from season-ending Tommy John surgery.
After watching this video, I now have a pretty good idea. The eccentric closer can don a kilt and get rid of some of his extra hot air by leading the rest of the Giants bullpen onto the field with a set of bagpipes — just like University of Oregon relief pitcher David Wylie does:
Ah, as Harry Caray used to say, you can't beat fun at the old ballpark, friends.
Make no mistake, either: That really is Wylie squawking his Duck teammates onto the field. The junior right-hander has "enjoys playing the bagpipes" listed in the personal section of his Oregon biography.

9-13 | Fadziville: Diary of a Rebel
Posted on August 8, 2014 by Rebel Rouser Bubblehead
I made a resolution today, to leave this chain of thoughts that glorifies you into a saint you are not. I had the stones to leave, to abandon ship, so from now on I will ignore your very apparent existence. I also had the stones to admit to myself, a little truth that hurts, that I miss you. I miss the person you are when we are alone, if that makes you a player then you are guilty as charged. I miss the one month out of four that you call me almost everyday just to check up on me, and always ending every phone call by telling me you miss me. How you got so angry, or maybe acted angry at my every departure, yeah you almost changed my mind every time. I miss how you looked at me with dreamy eyes that engulfed every inch of me with the exception of my flaws. I miss you holding me close and how sometimes we did mot have to talk but nudge your fingers with mine as a symbol of understating, that you understood me, the one thing I searched for. I honestly miss you hugging me. It was powerful and inviting , like open gates to a world where I could be anything, even loved…..
Sure we kissed here and there but what I miss the most is when you took my hand every time we crossed a road. It was as if you just thought me too precious to be harmed, that alone aroused a priceless feeling. I miss that alternative you that I do not see in you right now. I guess you left him packed away along with your ability to express your feelings to me anymore, I really need access to that bag, before I pack mine too.

Review of Wawona Campground
Ranked #6 of 23 Speciality Lodging in Yosemite National Park
Excellent campground in the heart of the forest
Brilliant camping, camping in the US is a must and so much better than in the UK. It has to be done with a camp fire and smores. Pitches are all a much of a muchness so don't get too picky. You can hear the river in the morning and you are set back from the road. Wouldn't hesitate to go here again as it is in South Yosemite then its a good place to camp the night before you explore.

All reviews mariposa grove general store flush toilets lovely river glacier point the loop bathroom stalls yosemite valley minute drive beautiful site cleaned daily tunnel view swinging bridge three nights small store bear box bathrooms were clean
Stayed at #34 Wawona last week for a couple of nights because we couldn't get a site in Yosemite Valley. The good: beautiful, quite, it was on the river and there was a lot of space between the sites across from it and next to it (felt more private than the valley campgrounds). The bad: this site was not flat, a little small -- good for only one medium sized tent, and he bathroom by this site was really old with no shelf to put your things on while using the sink, and no hooks anywhere to hang things on. Also, there was no dish washing station. The staff here were very nice. The camp was beautiful, however, for us, the distance was just too far from the valley and we went to Yosemite to climb. Ok, here's the worst part for me: the drive was one of the most winding roads I've ever experienced. It reminded me of the road to Hana in places. Because I tend to get car sick on windy roads, this was really a drawback for me and I would not stay here again.

Came here to camp end of May 2012, group camping looks like it would be a great place. The weather was absolutely perfect. Dogs are allowed, we brought our Sharpei dog and she had an amazing time by the creek. The place was quiet during the day & night time, every camper was respectful of each other & the rangers were friendly and helpful.
About a mile away (not recommended for walking) there is a general store (to buy wood, etc), gas station (Chevron) also the Wawona Hotel. Several hikes are also conveniently located there, drive & park your car by the info station. The tour bus is free, also near the general store and takes you all over Yosemite.

Camping Weekend at Wawona Sept 2012 - Site 32
We spent last week camped at Wawona Campground in Yosemite National Park - we arrived around lunch time Thursday September 13 and left on Monday morning September 17.
We were in site 32 in loop B and I really liked the site. Every site has a bear locker, picnic table and a fire ring. Most of the sites in loop B looked pretty good, some were a bit more sloped than others. Our site was slightly sloped but not enough to cause a problem. The site was just one site over from the bathrooms - close enough to be convenient but not too close - although people walking past talking at 6 am might bother some.
Personally i think loop B site 34 looks like one of the best in the campground (but it wasnt available).
We booked back in May 2012 for three nights then added another night in July. The cost was $20 per night.
Good amenities (but no showers)
Beautiful site in the trees
Lots of cheeky squirrels (dont feed them)
You feel a bit away from all the tourist craziness of the valley
Easy access (1 mile) to Wawona Store if you forget anything
Park Rangers were nice
The campground sits in a valley, on a bit of a slope, right next to the road, so you do hear road noise. The tree canopy seems to reflect sound, so if you are unfortunate (as we were for two nights) to have noisy neighbours, the sound will be amplified. Some sites are very sloped.
I would NOT recommend Loop A at all and I would definitely select Loop B over Loop C for tent campers as loop C allows RVs so there is more noise, and the space is more open with less trees. Although that being said sites 1-4 in Loop C looked pretty cool.
Remember to follow the rules - always, always lock your food and toiletries in the bear locker (we saw a bear near the campground), don't feed the squirrels, put out your campfire and never leave it unattended (the fine is $380 if the Ranger catches you - and I think this even includes being in your tent when the fire is burning), only dump your dishwater in the troughs provided. Park Rangers always come through at about 8:30 am (that we noticed) checking on everyone.
The distance from Yosemite Valley wasn't bad. I think it took us about 35 minutes to get to Tunnel View. It was less than 15 minutes to Mariposa Grove. We also did a day trip to Tuolumne Meadows and didnt feel it was too far.
Room Tip: Loop B, site 34 is my favourite, followed by any other site in Loop B, then sites 1-4 in Loop C. Bo...

Great campsite on river
Only stayed one night but could have spent much more. Lovely campground by the river. Boys had great fun swimming and playing in the water which was still very cold even at the end of summer. Nice spaces though with typical end of summer dustiness. Enjoyed the bats at dusk - one even crashed into one of the boys. Close to Mariposa Grove and Wawona village.
Ask Matt S about Wawona Campground
Great Campground without the chaos of the Valley
If you want to be close to the Valley and many popular hikes, Wawona might not be for you. However, if you want a quiet place to camp, then this is the place to go! The campsites are spaced out enough so that you’re not right up against your neighbor, and there are bathrooms & drinking water spouts throughout the loop. The bear lockers are a nice size so everything (food, toiletries, etc.) fit with no problem. You are also able to collect dead/downed wood to use for firewood instead of having to purchase it; our side was right by a creek, and across the creek was a lot of wood that we were able to use.There are also Ranger programs available and small hikes nearby throughout Mariposa Grove. We didn’t do any nearby hikes, since we had longer hikes we wanted to do in the Valley. We did go to a ranger talk in the morning and got some free coffee & hot chocolate!
The drive to the Valley is about an hour, with parking at many trailheads; you can then take the free shuttle (we didn’t do this) around the Valley so you don’t have to worry about parking. We tried to stop in at Curry Village to shower, but couldn’t find a parking space and the traffic was awful so the shuttle might have been a smart idea!

One of the best camping experiences we have ever had.
We were lucky enough to get a large shaded spot right next to the river. It was a very warm week sober were in the river every day and found some really nice swimming holes. of course going in August when the Merced is gentle makes this possible so be careful before jumping in earlier in the season!
The Rangers were attentive and friendly. My daughter and I enjoyed the coffee/hot chocolate morning chat.
The first thing that happened however was pretty traunatic and not uncommon for the region so be careful... As we were unpacking we happened to be standing upon a Yellow Jacket (also known as Meat Bee) nest at the base of a small tree. My son and nephew were bitten numerous times. Luckily they both rebounded quickly and the Rangers came and sprayed withing hours. It's an issue at a few sites so keep your eyes open before you settle in!
Some folks have complained about the facilities but my take is you know it going in... No showers... Bathrooms are serviceable and were cleaned daily... But it really is a beautiful campground and ha less of a manic and crowded feel than the Valley sites.

During our weekly Wednesday meeting today, we discussed our LED jacket project. We thought that it would be wise to make another LED jacket project because working on one project with several people would not be efficient (two small groups working on different projects would be better).
One group was working on an LED turn signal jacket. The other group decided to brainstorm on another potential LED jacket. Some of our ideas are illustrated from the pictures below:
Our group decided to make an LED jacket with several LEDs on the back that can adjust brightness.

After our research meeting, I went to Metrix with Blaine, Cam and Paige to work on the blinking signal turn jacket for bicyclists. It was my first time at Metrix and I found the place to be rather interesting. There were a lot of equipment and supplies that can be used to make so many cool things. I spent a couple hours sewing the battery pack and the Lilypad onto the jacket using the conductive thread that Paige brought. I had to read through the directions carefully from the website because it was my first time working with conductive thread and I didn’t want to mess anything up. I observed how Cam was designing the wafer for which the LEDs are to be mounted on which makes for easy sewing. The software that was used was called InkScape. Blaine also showed me how the LEDs were wired together so that they can be sewed onto the jacket. I wanted to check the conductivity of my sewing of the conductive thread using a multimeter but didn’t get the chance to because it was getting late. Blaine said that it would be easy to use the multimeter to check the conductivity if we were to learn from Bennett since he has the knowledge to do so. I hope I can finish sewing on the rest of the jacket and am looking forward to the finish product.

Amado and I met with Cam at the lab to get acquainted with the MakerBot. I downloaded the replicatorg software onto my Mac. It took a while for the MakerBot to warm up. While we were waiting, Cam showed us the thingiverse website where we can download some designs and print them. We browsed through the models that people posted. I would like to learn a bit about 3D modeling so I can design something and then print it out with MakerBot. We decided to print something simple and found the Lilypad holder. We encountered some technical difficulties with connecting my Mac to the MakerBot, which took awhile for us to figure out what the problem was. I’m going to ask Cam about the software where I can design something and come back to the lab some other time to print something out with the MakerBot.
Trying to Make a Lilypad with the Makerbot
Posted on November 3, 2011 by amado89
Last week, Cam, Thuy, and I were experimenting with the Makerbot. We downloaded the ReplicatorG software onto Thuy’s laptop and searched for items that we could make from the Makerbot. We decided to make a lilypad because the code was already provided for us.
The first problem that we encountered was that the Makerbot and ReplicatorG seemed to not be communicating or connected to each other. We kept getting error messages from ReplicatorG. We waited a pretty long time until the machine started to work (I think that we just had to wait until the Makerbot warmed up before it started working). Before uploading the code, we waited for the Makerbot to reach a certain temperature (I think it was 255 degrees Fahrenheit). In the meantime, Thuy taught me how to solder since I missed last Wednesday’s meeting.
The second problem that we encountered was that the code for the lilypad was taking extremely long to upload to the Makerbot. We waited almost an hour, and it was still in the process of uploading. We all had to leave before the code was fully uploaded so we never got to make the lilypad.

I have always wanted to learn how to solder. Coming into the lab, I saw Jarman talking with Blaine about soldering. It was my lucky day! In the past I have looked up countless YouTube videos trying to teach myself how to solder but have always wanted some kind of assistance in case I did something wrong. Now that Bennett agreed to teach us how to solder, this was a good chance for me to finally get my hands onto the activity.
After receiving a quick tutorial, I quickly realized that soldering is actually not that bad. Basically, all you have to do is take two objects together, heat them with the soldering iron, apply the solder, then remove the iron. Easy! Something that I was pretty hesitant to do is now something that I want to do all the time. Great session!

I didn’t have the slightest clue as to what soldering is. This lab meeting gave me a chance to familiarize myself with the art of soldering! Bennett was teaching a number of us how to solder. It looked fairly simple but I had to try it out to know for myself. I heated up a piece of protruding metal and wire with the solder iron and then melted the solder on both pieces. So this is soldering!
We all decided to work on a blinking signal turn jacket for bicyclists. We are going to use the website that Blaine found as our guide for the project. We wrote the supplies on the white board and checked off the supplies that we already had in the lab. I’m looking forward to working with the conductive thread because I have never heard of such material and want to learn more about it. | [

What to do when you don't get paid for your translation or interpretation services?
So you have done your due diligence researching the client beforehand and taken the necessary preventive measures implementing an air tight statement of service; but still, the client has failed to pay your final balance.
Before you begin to pursue the debt consider these tips:
Cease all work.
Stick to the facts not your opinion.
Keep all correspondence and agreements.
Keep records and notes of all conversations.
Here are the steps and options you can take when you do not get paid for your services.
1. Notify in writing.
You need to have proof (in writing) that the client has been reasonably notified and that they are aware they have to pay.
Send a friendly reminder of their outstanding balance (with added interest included) by email, phone, certified mail, and/or fax.
Let the client know that you have the copyrights of the translation and they have no legal right using your translation until you are paid in full, if they do, the client commits copyright infringement.
You can also let the client know that you will not deliver the remaining files (if it applies) until the balance is paid in full.
Email: send yourself a carbon copy (cc:)
Phone: take note of the day, time, and person you spoke to and what was discussed. Try to speak to the owner, project manager or CFO.
Mail: use certified mail.
Fax: make sure your fax went through and it is recorded (fax number, day, and time) that is was successfully sent.
2. Attorney Letter.
Have your attorney send another friendly reminder.
The lawyer will write a letter demanding prompt payment with interest including lawyer fees.
3. Collections Agency.
Instead of going to court you have the option of selling the debt to a collector.
They usually will take 25-50% of the debt as payment.
4. Legal Action.
If you know your way around the legal system file your claim or authorize your lawyer to submit a claim in which he also requests payment of both the lawyer and court fees.
*If you feel you are a victim of a scam then you need to inform the local authorities (police, FBI, District Attorney, etc) immediately. Many scammers will simply disappear and wipe clean the 'scene'.
5. Tax Write-Off.
If all else fails and you are not able to recoup your money at least in most countries this type of loss is tax deductible.
6. Warn others.
Help your fellow colleagues.
Let them know who is breaking the law in every way possible, in which you feel comfortable to do so, in order for them not to fall victim too.
Here are a few ways to warn others:
Write a review on Yelp or similar review sites
File a complaint with the Consumer Affaris
Inform your associations and organizations
Let others know on social media groups (like LinkedIn, Facebook, etc)
Inform ethics and scammers directories, payment practice lists, and blacklists online
7. Lesson Learned.
Learn from your mistakes and review how you can improve .
You should also take the time to review your statement of service to make sure that the payment arrangement and terms are clearly stated.
These are only a few suggestions and points to help you get the money owed to you.

It should be noted here that bad debts are NOT deductible on federal income taxes in the U.S. unless the taxpayer uses the accrual, not cash, system of accounting: http://www.irs.gov/publications/p535/ch10.html

This Summer, RockOn Workshop welcomes Barry Goudreau as a guest artist – Rock On! Young Musicians Workshop
This Summer, RockOn Workshop welcomes Barry Goudreau as a guest artist
Not just another band out of Boston…
Like many musicians, Barry got his first guitar at an early age. By age 15, he had he joined a band with future Boston drummer Sib Hashian, and so it began. They didn’t know that the songs they would produce with Boston, would become the theme songs and anthems for a generation of high schoolers in the 70’s. They had it right with the lyrics…”Rock n roll band, everybody’s waiting, getting crazy anticipating….”. And they did work very hard to make the dream come true. In the early days, Goudreau and Hashian played night clubs, as often as they could, sometimes seven times a week.
Barry met other Boston band members Brad Delp and Fran Sheehan when he auditioned for Delp’s band.”It was around this time that I met Fran Sheehan and Brad Delp. Fran’s house was the place musicians went to jam. We had some great times there, refining our chops until the wee hours. I’m sure the neighbors didn’t appreciate it as much as we did. I met Brad when I auditioned for his band. The guitar player had decided to leave and brought me there as his replacement. Brad sang Led Zeppelin’s “Communication Breakdown”. I had never heard anybody sing like that before, I will never forget it. Unfortunately, I did not get the gig.”
Barry then decided to go to college at Boston University, and get a degree in Geology. While trying to put music aside to focus on school, he soon met up with Tom Scholz who was right across the river at MIT. With Tom, he formed the band ‘Mother’s Milk’ which also included Brad Delp. They began working on demo tapes and tried to get the attention of record companies. “Eventually we put together a demo tape, and brought it to New York to shop for a record contract. I remember sitting in waiting rooms, not able to get past the receptionist. I think it was these several years of constant rejection that drove Tom to continue to refine the songs and recordings to a point where they could no longer be denied.”
Scholz later re-worked and re-recorded some of these demo songs and wrote several new songs for a second set of demo tapes, this time with Scholz performing all of the guitar, bass and keyboard parts. This second demo set won a recording contract with Epic Records. Though he was not credited as a writer on the Boston tracks, Goudreau’s guitar work was an integral part of the Boston trademark sound and style.
Goudreau composed and performed the lead work for “Foreplay/Long Time”, Don’t Look Back, and “Used To Bad News” and provided much creative input to Tom, the primary songwriter.
Goudreau had written many songs in hopes that Scholz would incorporate them into the next Boston LP. Scholz did not express interest in using any of Goudreau’s work. In 1980, Goudreau recorded his first solo LP titled Barry Goudreau, using Brad Delp and Fran Cosmo (who would join Boston in 1991) on vocals, and Sib Hashian (then drummer for Boston) on drums. The record company sought to cash in big time with this “almost Boston” line-up. The LP successfully hit with the songs “Dreams” and “Mean Woman Blues”. Tom Scholz was not pleased with this and asked Barry to leave the band Boston.
In 1984, Barry formed “Orion The Hunter” and released a debut LP. The band included Fran Cosmo as lead vocalist, with Brad Delp provided backing vocals and co-writing five of the album’s songs. The album included the single “So You Ran”. Keyboardist and backing vocalist Brian Maes joined the band. They toured in support of Aerosmith in 1984 but ultimately broke up in 1985.
In 1990 Goudreau formed the band RTZ (Return To Zero). Brad Delp left Boston to join the band. RTZ experienced some success with the hit “Until Your Love Comes Back Around”, written by Brian Maes. Delp left RTZ shortly after to rejoin Boston.
Barry continued to play off and on with Delp and Hashian in various configurations. He recorded “Delp And Goudreau” with Brad in 2003. On October 16, 2007, Goudreau released one final song with Delp on vocals titled “Rockin’ Away”. According to Goudreau, “‘Rockin’ Away’ was written in the summer of 2006 for the 30th Anniversary of the release of the first “Boston” record. It was the last song that Brad and I wrote together. In it, Brad reflects on how he became involved in music, and thanks his many fans for their years of loyalty.”
His current band, Ernie and the Automatics features Sib Hashian, Tim Archibald, Brian Maes, Michael Antunes and “car guy” Ernie Boch, Jr. Their debut album Low Expectations was released on February 17, 2009.
Barry Goudreau resides in Massachusetts with his wife Connie, son Sean, and daughter Michele. He is a strong advocate of music education and is very involved with Music Drives Us, a non-profit organization which funds music programs in the schools and local communities. Kenny Aronoff is also a supporter.
We are pleased to have Barry at RockOn this Summer at BCC.

Fabrication of copper oxide–coated hollow waveguides for CO2 laser radiation — Tohoku University
Yuji Matsuura, Daisuke Miura, Mitsunobu Miyagi
Hollow fibers for transmitting CO2 laser light were fabricated by the chemical vapor deposition (CVD) method. A dielectric film of copper oxide (Cu2O) was deposited upon the inside of a Ag-coated glass capillary by use of a metal acetylacetonate as the precursor. The waveguide, which was coated with Cu2O and had a bore diameter of 700 mm, showed a loss of 0.9 dB/m for CO2 laser light. The Cu2O film deposited by CVD had high chemical and heat resistivity. Therefore a hollow fiber coated with copper oxide is suitable for high-power laser applications in a severe environment.

Linea Organdy Oblong Table Runner - Free Shipping On Orders Over $45 - Overstock.com - 13197636
Premium Quality Oblong Ivory Flannelback Vinyl Tablecloth
I like all the colors here. I think I was about to choose black, but white was the only one they had available, so I got that. I planned to put this on my dark cherry coffee table, but if I didn't like it there, I could put it somewhere else. I like the way it looks on my table, and am satisfied with my purchase. :) I thought it would be softer than it is. I thought it would be silky, but instead it's hard and rough. That's not a problem, only I'm having a hard time getting the wrinkles out. I tried wetting it and hanging it to dry. I tried cool ironing. My next step is to try warm iron through a towel. Even with the wrinkles, it still looks nice! :)

"The dropdown only shows ivory. Does that mean other colors aren't available? I'm thinking I'll go with black."
Thanks for your interest, yes, Ivory looks like the only color available at this time. Sorry for the inconvenience.
"Is there a version of these that are a little bit shorter?"
Thank you for your inquiry, no unfortunately this is the only size available. | [

So, today is Daddy’s birthday. It’s also the day he goes back to work.
Of course the boys are being total terrors and we have what feels like a billion things to do while attempting to keep them from going at eachother like a couple of wild cats.
Anyway, I wanted to take a minute and write something for the man who is crazy enough to want to marry me (aren’t you supposed to get wiser with age?).
Eight years ago I met this guy in a bar I frequented after work. And immediately had the hots for him. However, life doesn’t work that way, and we were both on very separate paths. Then out of the blue one evening a few years later I received a myspace message (yeah, that really was only five years ago. Weird to think about, right?) from this very man, who was out of the country and wanted to hang out when he returned home. As luck would have it, my friend and I had tickets to a Less Than Jake concert, and one of our friends had backed out at the last minute, so we had an extra ticket. I asked if he wanted to join us, he agreed, and that was that.
No really, that was that. In those hours I spent time with a man who made me laugh, challenged me intellectually, gave me goosebumps when he looked at me, and (this was pretty close to a first when it came to my dating history) wasn’t totally insane. A month later, after meeting a very large portion of my family, we became an official couple.
Over the last five years we’ve had so many ups and downs, highs and lows. We’ve had good times that were really good, and bad times that couldn’t get much worse. And through it all, we’ve managed to grow stronger. Raising children is difficult enough. Raising special needs children is a whole different beast. Doing it while halfway across the world is another thing altogether. Yet we make it work – we make our family work. It’s not traditional, it’s not anywhere near normal. But it’s ours, and I wouldn’t trade it for anything in the world.
I know you often feel unappreciated, and I wish I could find a better way to convey to you just how untrue that is. We appreciate you more than you’ll ever comprehend. We appreciate the sacrifices you make for the sake of our family. I can’t imagine having to spend more time away from our family than with them – and I know you do it for us. I know you push and work, and struggle to make sure that the kids and I have everything we need, and often everything we want.
I know how much it costs you to provide the way you do – and I love you all the more for it. But so often we focus on the big things, that we lose sight of the little things. So, pay attention here because it’s high time the little things got some recognition.
I love you for…
I love you for keeping Mason out of the bathroom so I can shower in peace.
I love you for listening every time I need to rant and rave about something – even though you’d already forwarned me and I didn’t listen.
I love you for not outright laughing at me every time I manage to get myself in a stupid situation.
I love you for buying me a guitar based on some random stories I told once (and no, I still can’t play a single chord).
I love you for dealing with the flower bed because you know how much I don’t want to.
I love you for not banging your head against the brick each time I sign myself up for something, only to discover I overstretched myself once again.
I love you for not going crazy every time you run out of clean clothes because I have an absurd aversion to doing laundry.
I love you for going along with every harebrained scheme I come up with to help the kids.
I love you because you step on a Lego, curse a blue streak, and then walk right past it (sometimes I really think you are trying to get me to step on it).
I love you because after all these years you still haven’t learned not to play card games with me.
I love you because you’re just as sore a loser as I am when it comes to video games.
I love you because as much as you hate the kiddie pools, you let me get one every summer.
I love you for every small seemingly insignificant thing you do for me and the boys.
Never feel unappreciated. The boys and I appreciate everything you do – from big to small. I know this is a long trip around this time. And I know you’re doing it so you can be home to marry my crazy self (and yes, it’s too late to back out).
I want you to know, every time you start to feel a little crazy, or homesick, or you just miss the sound of the children screaming loud enough to break the sound barrier – we love you. We’re here waiting for you. We know this is tough for you – just know it’s tough for us too, and we aren’t going anywhere. I could keep writing for the next few hours, but you have to leave soon.
So, I’ll leave it at this.
It doesn’t matter where you are. It doesn’t matter what drama is unfolding, or if we’re having a spat. It doesn’t matter if the kids are making me crazy or I have too much on my plate to focus clearly on any one thing. It doesn’t matter if you’re going stir crazy or over analyzing the world. I love you. I have always loved you, and I always will. WE are here. WE are your home, and we will hold your heart with pride.
Happy Birthday Love. Have a safe trip, and know that we miss you already.

River Reflections at the University of Dayton: October 2010
On Friday, October 15th, the Junior River Stewards took a trip to the City of Miamisburg to continue learning about Ohio's Great Corridor, including the communites living along it and their wonderful river and downtown opportunities. A big thanks to Katie Frank, the Miamisburg Downtown Development Coordinator, who organized a great program! The Stewards met with the Mayor of Miamisburg and listened to him talk about the city's history all the way to the present and their vision for the future. We also heard from Debbie McLaughlin, the Director of Parks and Recreation of Miamisburg, who explained the current and longterm plans for their riverfront park project. We ended with a great tour of the downtown and met with merchant owners who are actively involved in the Miamiburg Merchant Association. It was interesting to hear what drew each of them to opening up their business in the historic storefront of Miamisburg. We all had a great time and appreciate the wonderful hospitality we received from everyone....not to mention the yummy cookies from Star City Cafe and the free hamburger coupons from the Hamburger Wagon. We also stopped by Great Miami Outfitters and A Tase of Wine. Looking forward to our next visit.....Thanks!!! Posted by
Last Friday, the sophomore Stewards went on UD's tree tour. The tour was created by senior Steward Nolan Nicaise. http://see.udayton.edu/digitalAssets/1885_UD_Tree-Trail.pdfThe tour guides you to 20 trees around campus providing interesting information about each tree species. The Stewards spent some quality time together learning about each tree and enjoying the fall colors. Posted by
After learning about Pittsburgh and Dayton’s plentiful water resources, week 8 examined water law and the development of Los Angeles with a scarcity of water. Blake Watson, a professor from UD’s School of Law, led the class through a case study he developed for understanding water law in the United States. The class explored the differences in prior appropriation and riparian right and how water laws developed differently in the east and the west as a result of quality and quantity issues. The session called on the class’s understanding of groundwater, how water moves through the aquifer and ecosystem services. The article California Scheming and video clips from the documentary “Cadillac Desert” provided an in depth look at the development of Los Angeles and how the city secured its future by draining the Owens Valley. Unfortunately, more and more cities around the world are facing water shortages and must find new ways of securing water. The class will build upon this topic later in the semester as we examine global water issues.
Staying true to an experiential nature, the class went on its fourth fieldtrip in six weeks. How else could we expect the class to experience the power of river city without taking them downtown? The majority of the class took place in Five Rivers Recreation Department’s offices. Dr. Janet Bednarek began the class with a discussion of the reading and presentation on the evolution of Pittsburgh as a river city. Greg Brumitt, Director of Recreation at Five Rivers, led the second part of the class examining Dayton as a river city and recent efforts to revitalize the region through our water resources. More specifically, the Greg chronicled the evolution of the low dam removal discussion in recent years. The session ended with a walk along the levy walls at RiverScape and a discussion of options for making our rivers safer and more accessible in the future. Posted by
After learning about and experiencing the river, it was time to take a step back and learn about the flood plains. For this class, the students ventured to a goat prairie overlooking the Great Miami and Hills and Dales MetroPark. The session began in the classroom reviewing aerial maps of the sites we were about to visit in relation to the river and aquifer. At Calvary cemetery, a short hike through a wooded area brought the class to a relict goat prairie with a great view of the activity on the flood plain. Bro. Don Geiger led the class in imagining the changes that have taken place since Dayton was founded and understanding the impact of developing on the flood plains. At Hills and Dales, Susan Byrnes led the group in an observation activity. Looking through a square cutout, each student focus on a single area in front of them noting first the physical attributes, then looking a little deeper using knowledge to make assumptions about those attributes. The final task was to look at the same area with a third eye; a greater appreciation of what they saw without looking to explain or classify it. The first two tasks proved to be much easier. Through the fieldtrip, the class saw a great comparison between the developed flood plains of the Great Miami and the natural headwater area in Hills and Dales. They learned a valuable technique for making observations and an appreciation for reflection. Finally as the class traveled back to campus, the students were shocked to learn just how close Hills and Dales is to UD and what a great place it is to reconnect with nature. Posted by
To gain a better understanding of the river science material and to witness the power of Dayton as a river city, the class paddled down the Mad River making a few key stops along the way. After launching the kayaks at Harshman Rd. in Eastwood MetroPark, we paddle downstream until reaching a gravel island in the middle of the river. Waiting there was Dr. Kavanaugh and Dr. Benbow. The class was split into two groups for fish shocking and macro-invertebrate sampling.Dr. Kavanaugh reviewed the river continuum concept and talked to the students about habit, biological indicators, and what they mean for the health of the river. Each student took turns holding the shocker and rotated between holding the live well and scooping up with the stunned fish with axillary nets. The diversity of fish species we found and their intolerance of pollution indicated a vibrant and healthy river. The results from macro-invertebrate sampling painted a similar picture. Students divided into groups of two and used D-frame nets to collect as many species as possible. The cool, clear water passing quickly over a small ripple provided a great habitat for macros; many of which are pollution intolerant. After eating lunch on the island, the group continued paddling down to the convergence of the Mad and Great Miami and took out at RiverScape (after playing in the fountains of course). The paddle provided an opportunity for students to see Dayton in a whole new light preparing them to begin learning about river cities the next week. Posted by | [

I am happy to report that my part of the world is thawing out and spring might indeed come after all. It has been a very long winter - one that included a lot of baking, hot chocolates, and lattes. Before I put on my cute summer outfits, I would like to drop some of the pounds that I put on as a result of all of this baking!
I just had the opportunity to try a seven day sample of the "Skinny Blend" protein shake offered by Skinny Jane, and I was very happy with the results. I was able to lose three pounds during my one week trial - perhaps a full sized bag and a month of these great shakes will be my ticket back into my summer clothes!
The Skinny Jane "Skinny Blend" is meant to be used in conjunction with healthy eating, of course. It is a great, low calorie, high protein meal replacement. I was very satisfied with the full feeling I had after drinking a shake. I truly did not feel hungry again for at least four and up to six hours, and the shake actually tasted very good!
Like a lot of other women I eat way too many carbs and not enough protein - so the other thing that I was really pleased about was that the shakes seemed to curb the sweet tooth and carb cravings.
According to the website, Skinny Blend uses a special blend of seven proteins and it also includes MCT oil. (medium chain triglycerides) Studies suggest that this may help to speed body metabolism and assist with muscle tone. For this reason, Skinny Blend might also be used for people in great shape who are just looking to increase their protein intake and boost energy.
Women who like a structured weight loss plan or need help keeping on course might like the 28 day or the 8 week challenge. These plans will set forth exactly what a gal should do to reach their goal - and they will also include some inspiration and motivation, too.
The Skinny Jane Challenges are straightforward and the food suggestions are not exotic.You will find everything on the list in an ordinary grocery store. There will also be some weight loss supplements included in the plan. I have not tried these - but the testimonials on the website are glowing.
These pictures show you the actual product after I made it. I had a small sample package which made seven servings. The big bag comes with its own scoop, but I measured out the 1/4 cup. This is the strawberry flavor.
The mix is a fine powder. I combined 1/4 cup with 8 ounces of almond milk and some ice by shaking it all up, then using the blender for about 20 seconds. The total time to make it was about a minute.
The great taste and the crushed ice made it feel like I was getting a treat and there wasn't any aftertaste, either. The mix can also be made without ice and simply shaken or stirred.
Here are two satisfied Skinny Jane users:
If you are feeling ready and motivated to drop some pounds, you can follow the links I shared above and see if Skinny Jane looks right for you.
Skinny Jane has offered to allow one of my readers a $25 gift certificate toward any of their products . I will be hosting the giveaway using this rafflecopter form. If you would like to enter, please be sure to complete each required step.

liquor stores. they have the best boxes.
I second the liquor store comment, especially for your dishes and glassware. Check out Craigslist--sometimes people give away their moving boxes when they are done with them. If you belong to a Freecycle yahoo group in your area you will usually see someone offer moving boxes on that list too. And Wallyworld has them but you have to catch them before they break them down and get rid of them.
well, your advice was great. I only got about 5 from liquor stores but i am headed up the mtn. to get a bunch from a guy off craigslist! | [

Changing Mindsets, Changing World - Wellesley, MA Patch
Changing Mindsets, Changing World
Pizza Delivery Dude - Bob Lord
http://wayland.patch.com/blog_posts/changing-mindsets-changing-world/media_attachments/edit?upload_started=1369094538
In an earlier post we promised to keep our readers apprised of our insights into what life in a small business start-up is really like. The good and the bad, including obstacles and frustrations which we’re working to overcome. Here’s an additional installment towards that.
Lets face it. Life is tough. Perhaps you have kids. You have work. You have meetings, errands and your to do list never seems to end. Dinner for the most part has become an exercise in rapid dialing to your favorite pizza, Chinese, Indian or health food spot.
The same goes for your dry cleaning. Not only does your favorite dry cleaner like Anton’s or Zoots drop off your freshly cleaned and perfectly pressed shirts but they will pick up the next round at the same time is well. Peapod and Roche Bros both offer grocery delivery services. Although it took time for each of these to gain traction, they’re now starting to be a sustaining alternative to the weekly store trek for many suburban households. When considering such a service, your decisions are based on who delivers what and how quickly they can arrive, how much time can I save, and how much does it cost? After all, eeking out the “me” time is something that we are all searching for and willing to pay for. More and more, we are looking for services that can ease our daily routines a bit more.
What we are finding interesting about the above services was the learning curve. In 1965, when Domino’s Pizza delivery burst onto the scene people went nuts. “You mean you can deliver a pizza to me in less than 30 minutes?” Still, with the level of excitement that people felt about pizza delivery, the act of people picking up the phone and ordering pizza delivery was a change in habits. In fact, it was a complete change in time management. The simple education of the masses to pizza delivery not only increased the products desirability, but changed how people live. Delivery is now a part of life and as we move more and more into becoming a service oriented society, the more products people will expect to be delivered to their homes. It’s our plan at MetroWestWines.com to join that list of services. The Real Secret Service:
This is unbelievable! Is this legal? Why isn’t everyone doing this? Sign me up! I used a service like this when I lived in LA, and it was great. Very civilized.
Enter rapid wine, beer and liquor delivery. In the Boston suburbs, alcohol delivery is a completely alien concept. People often ask, “You mean, I can now call or order online and you’ll deliver beer to my house in the same time it takes a pizza to be delivered?” Again, initial reactions have been: WOW! Great! This is awesome! But as we have found, it is not enough to just provide a great service. Mindsets need to be changed. Awareness must be in the forefront of our customer’s decision making process. Habits need to be adapted. This is our main focus now -- and our main obstacle.
When we poll our regular customers (for whom we are profoundly grateful!) why they’re back, the most common responses are “I have way too much going on -- you guys are a lifesaver.” or, “I’ve been ordering from you when I’ve already had a drink or two. Delivery is cheaper than a potential DUI.” and the most frequent comment is. “We’re having friends over and right now, I can’t leave the kids here alone.” All of these hit the nail on the head.

JoH'a mu'qaD | Memory Beta, non-canon Star Trek Wiki | FANDOM powered by Wikia
JoH'a mu'qaD
joH'a mu'qaD, which when translated meant Curse of the Gods, was a term of religious significance to the Klingon race.
A fact not known to many was that the planet Qo'noS was believed to had been visited by an advanced alien race who came before the ancestors of the Klingon species. These aliens advanced nature meant that they were seen as gods and deities from which Klingon legend sprang. Similar to the stories in later era Klingons, these aliens were destroyed by the forebears of the Klingon race who they sought to abuse or control. However, before they were killed, the aliens were responsible for the introduction of a genetic corruption introduced into the Klingon genome by way of either experimentation or interspecies mating. This was only a slight alteration but it did introduce an adaptation of several favorable traits which included redundant organs that remained within the species for generations to come. It was believed that at some point in the future, the Curse of the Gods would be made manifest and destroy the Klingon Empire.
Whilst all knowledge of the gods was forgotten and relegated to legend, the actions of these fallen deities were later detailed in the scrolls of Ghargh and later Amar both of whom were Visionary Klingons. When Amar was slain in the war against Molor, his mate took his scrolls and joined the QawHaq'hoch thus transforming that group from a body that simply noted down genetic lineages to one that sought to prevent the coming of the Curse of the Gods. Their own legends spoke of the coming of the Fek'lhr who in turn would be followed by the Kuvah'magh that had the power of stopping this apocalypse. When Emperor K'Trelan took the throne, he sought to purge the imperial court of his predecessors influence which included the qawHaq'hoch. However, this group led by blademistress Hal'korin went into hiding and became a secret society that watched for the coming of the Kuvah'magh. K'Trelan later sent his most faithful warriors to track them down who in turn formed their own faction called the Warriors of Gre'thor that watched out for the end of days that were prophecised.
In hiding, the qawHaq'hoch conducted genetic research on their own bodies and came to believe that their biology was an inevitable expression of the taint formed by the Curse of the Gods. They later concluded their findings in secret with the Federation Research Institute which led to the conclusion that the corruption would bring about a terrifying struggle between two kinds of Klingons which in turn would tear the Klingon Empire apart. Thus, it was believed that only the Kuvah'magh was capable of saving the Klingon race from this coming disaster. In 2380, the qawHaq'hoch acted and spirited Miral Paris away from danger as they believed that the prophecy was coming to pass. This was because of a growing birth of a divergent race of Klingons known as Fek'lhr who were going to split the Klingon Empire apart and bring about its devastation. (VOY novel: Full Circle)

Practical Post 5: Small retail extension- problem with certifier | BRegs Blog
Practical Post 5: Small retail extension- problem with certifier
I am a garage owner arranging an extension to my business. The architect did not want to be the Assigned Certifier, so we engaged another registered professional at a very competitive rate. The Assigned Certifier rarely appears on site and I am concerned- what are my options?
Building Owners are now responsible under law for appointing competent professionals to the roles of Design Certifier and Assigned Certifier. The owner must also engage a competent builder.
There are two particular problems with the new regulations that apply to your situation. Firstly, if the Assigned Certifier does not do his job (perhaps his rate was too competitive?) the local authority may ‘red flag’ your site through the BCMS computer system. It is the Assigned Certifier who has control of the building file in the BCMS system so you need to make sure that YOUR legal obligations are being met. Under the Building Control Act, only the owner or the builder can be prosecuted, not the Assigned Certifier, so you need to make sure that YOU are not falling foul of the law.
A second problem can arise if you have to fire the Assigned Certifier or if he completely abandons the project. Under the new Building Regulations, YOU are obliged to appoint a new Assigned Certifier and to notify the local authority within 14 days. The new Assigned Certifier (if you can find one to take this on) will have access to the previous BCMS records but he have to take over and sign off that all of the work (even the work that he has not inspected himself) is in compliance at the end of the project.
If the Assigned Certifier fails to lodge the Completion Certificate or if it is not validated you cannot ‘open, occupy or operate’ the building until this is resolved.

Prime Minister David Cameron will chair an emergency meeting after flooding caused Boxing Day misery across the north of England.Hundreds of people in West Yorkshire and Lancashire were evacuated from their homes on Saturday and thousands were left without power after widespread flooding.Dozens of severe flood warnings were still in place in Yorkshire and the North West but no further rain warnings were issued.Mr Cameron said he will chair a conference call of the Government's emergency Cobra committee today. "My thoughts are with people whose homes have been flooded," he wrote on Twitter.The Environment Agency (EA) issued 31 severe flood warnings on Saturday, signalling a risk to life, although many of the rivers involved were predicted to have reached peak levels.Hundreds of flood warnings and alerts were still in place across England and Wales.The Met Office was forecasting ice in parts of Scotland today but no further weather warnings were in place.The River Aire, in Leeds, was predicted by the EA to have reached "record levels" at 11pm last night, with nine severe flood warnings in place.Residents in York city centre, Huntington, Tang Hall, Osbaldwick and Foss Island were advised to start moving valuables to upper floors and to prepare to be evacuated.The EA said pumps in the Foss Barrier were at risk of electrical failure due to water entering the building and a decision had been taken to lift the barrier.York City Council said an emergency meeting had been held and the River Ouse was expected to peak at more than 5 yards above normal summer levels on Monday afternoon.Record levels were also reached in the River Calder catchment area. The EA said river levels were now expected to fall but there was still an ongoing risk.About 10,000 homes in Rochdale and Lancashire lost their electricity supply on Saturday after a main substation was damaged and another 3,000 homes in North and West Yorkshire were also without power.Electricity North West warned that some properties may be without power until Monday.Hundreds of people were evacuated from their homes in Lancashire and Calderdale, West Yorkshire, as soldiers were drafted in to help with the flooding.In Lancashire, the Fire and Rescue Service - which was forced to evacuate a flooded fire station in Padiham - said it had been called out to around 350 incidents and rescued 50 people during the floods on Boxing Day.Todmorden, in Calderdale, was completely cut-off by flood waters and emergency services had to rescue a man from a car after he drove into deep flood water in Mytholmroyd.Areas of Greater Manchester, including Salford, Bolton, Bury, Rochdale and Wigan, were badly affected by flooding, with more than 300 flood-related calls to the fire service in 24 hours.A 200-year-old former pub, which sits on a bridge over the River Irwell, in Summerseat, Greater Manchester, was swept away in raging waters, while a gas explosion in Radcliffe was believed to have been caused by the flooding.A pothole on the M62, which appeared between junctions 19 and 20 near Rochdale, closed the westbound carriageway and, in north Wales, some drivers were forced to abandon their waterlogged cars.People were warned not to drive unless necessary and rail passengers in Yorkshire were also advised not to travel today, with multiple railways lines either closed or at risk of closure in the wake of the severe flooding. | [

Total Here: Aprilia RSV 1000 R
Posted by FREE MOBILE THINGS on Monday, September 8, 2008 /
With unbeatable performance on the track ensured by a perfect mix of power, handling and efficiency, the Aprilia RSV 1000 R is the pace-setter for all other sports twins. Already the top production twin, the 2005 RSV 1000 R adds eye-catching new graphics and Brembo gold radial calliper front barkes.
Very few road bikes can boast as many official awards from specialist magazines as the Aprilia RSV 1000. This year too the RSV 1000 R leads the field for performance, ridability and effectiveness on the track. Thanks to first-rate technology and the best quality/price ratio on the market this pedigree supersport has won the hearts of riders and experts all over the world.
With its advanced technology and extraordinary performance, the superb RSV 1000 R is the benchmark for all other road-going sports motorcycles. But what counts most is that despite its fantastic performance, the RSV 1000 R has not betrayed the total ridability that has always characterized it and has been one of the main reasons for its success. Almost maniacal attention to ergonomics plus great handling make riders feel instantly at home on the bike, enabling them to explore their performance limits quickly and with minimal effort. Easier control means less physical and mental fatigue, faster and safer riding, and longer lasting concentration. These are determining factors for success on the track and just as important on the road.
Here are the design features that set Aprilia's benchmark RSV 1000 R apart from the competition:
- Refined sports styling
- New V 60 Magnesium engine
- Air Runner ram air scoop
- Close ratio gearbox
- Electronic injection system with 57 mm throttle bodies
- 16-bit electronic engine management unit
- Twin silencer exhaust with three way catalytic converter and Lambda probe oxygen sensor
- Aluminium alloy perimeter frame
- Double member aluminium swingarm
- Lighter, less loaded steering yoke
Loving care has been lavished on even the tiniest detail of this exclusive, refined and aggressively styled motorcycle. The RSV 1000 R is the perfect balance between quality, technology, high-tech components and finish.
Everything has been designed, tested and perfected to enhance the already acclaimed performance and handling of this exceptional bike. The new V60 Magnesium engine is motorcycling's undisputed reference point, delivering 138.72 hp (102 kW) at the crank for a maximum speed of over 170 mph (280 km/h). These figures place the RSV 1000 R well ahead of other production supersport twins. The chassis, designed using Aprilia's prodigious know-how, ensures perfect dynamics in every situation plus unbeatable performance on the track. All this, of course, goes hand in hand with top-quality components, selected to make the RSV 1000 R the number one supersport for motorcycling enthusiasts.
Performance and beauty go hand in hand on the revolutionary RSV 1000 R. Lower and more compact than ever, the bike's aggressive look tells it as it is. This is no stylistic exercise. On the RSV 1000 R design is at the service of technology and performance. Everything about the bike is not just pretty, but pretty effective too! The entire bike has been designed to ensure that the V60 Magnesium engine can breath correctly. The ram air scoop has been placed right in the middle of the cockpit fairing where dynamic pressure is greatest and represents a perfect example of how stylish design can serve the purposes of performance. Likewise, the headlight cluster comprises four separate lights that work in pairs, eliminating the lopsided 'Cyclops' look of so many modern sports bikes and providing excellent lighting at the same time.
The RSV 1000 R is incredibly compact, but still boasts the top level ergonomics that have always characterised the RSV range. Its slender tail is extremely compact and one of the most striking design features of the bike. It also quickly converts from a solo to a dual seat (optional). Despite its compact size, the red LED, white-lens tail light is extremely bright so the RSV 1000 R is immediately recognisable even from behind. The quest for perfect aerodynamics has led to the elimination of conventional direction indicators. The front indicators are now incorporated in the rear view mirrors while the rear indicators are built into the tail. For 2005, the direction indicator lenses are white in colour (except USA models).
The new-design indicators leave nothing to stick out and spoil the RSV 1000 R's clinically clean lines. The bike therefore cuts through the air like nothing else. Extensive wind tunnel testing has shown that the RSV 1000 R has a CX of only 0.3. Ride it to believe it!
V60 Magnesium Engine
The 1000 cc 'V 60 Magnesium' engine marks a turning point in the history of Aprilia twin-cylinder engines. It is based on the acclaimed V990, but has been so completely revised that even its name has changed. Its design features have already established it as the benchmark for production twins. It performs exceptionally, responds in every situation and has proverbial Aprilia reliability. The cylinder heads have been designed using Aprilia's race know-how to improve fluid dynamics and combustion efficiency. Optimised ignition and injection mapping has also led to increased torque in the 4,000 to 6,000 rpm rev range. The valve gear has been designed and tuned for the maximum performance.
The V60 Magnesium breathes through the exclusive 'Air Runner' ram air scoop. As mentioned above, this is located right in the middle of the cockpit fairing, exactly on the motorcycle's centreline where dynamic pressure is the highest. From the scoop, an air duct passes through the steering head to take ram air to the generous 10.3 litre airbox. A choke inside the duct, controlled by the engine ECU, regulates flow to provide the engine with air at exactly the right volume and pressure for all engine speeds. The engine therefore packs incredible punch right through its extended speed range, enabling the rev limiter to be set at 11,000 rpm.
The mighty roar of the V60 Magnesium is muffled by two differential volume Helmotz resonators to reduce intake noise at the most critical engine speeds. The airbox also houses an idling motor. This operates an electronically controlled valve that deviates air downstream of the butterfly valve to make it easier to start the engine from cold and to stabilise engine idling.
The Air Runner also performs a structural function. It incorporates two lightweight aluminium arms to hold the cockpit fairing and headlight so that there is no need for ugly brackets. A new panel type air filter reduces pressure drop and improves engine efficiency. The engine's fuel injection system features 57 mm throttle bodies and one injector per cylinder. Thank to the Air Runner ram air scoop pressure in the airbox increases as the bike accelerates, leading to a 3% gain in power at maximum speed.
An engine management unit made in conjunction with Siemens VDO controls all engine parameters. The ECU receives real time signals from 15 parameter sensors and processes these to control the actuators in real time too. (Parameters include air and coolant temperature; atmospheric, airbox and oil pressure; Lambda sensor oxygen level; crankshaft, camshaft, and rear wheel speed; throttle, side stand, clutch and neutral position; and battery voltage.) To ensure high precision engine management, the phonic wheel on the crankshaft is a 36-minus-2-tooth wheel that generates signals every 10° instead of every 60°.
The flash EPROM already contains racing mapping for unrestricted exhausts. Aprilia service engineers can easily change mapping on request from the customer.
All engine data passes through a CAN (Controlled Area Network) line to the instrument panel, which acts as a diagnostic terminal. In the event of a malfunction, it is a simple job for service engineers to identify problems. The CAN line uses only two wires to transmit all data. This simplifies the electrical system enormously as well as reducing the total weight of the bike.
The V60 Magnesium engine sets new standards for production twins, delivering a maximum power of 138.72 hp (102 kW) at 9,500 rpm with a maximum torque of 107 Nm at 7,500 rpm. Despite this massive power the engine is extremely clean running and complies with the EC's Euro2 emission control legislation thanks to a three way catalytic converter with lambda probe oxygen sensor. The engine is extremely light too thanks to the use of high-tech materials like magnesium in the cylinder head covers and the clutch cover.
For Aprilia, advanced technology means long lasting performance as well as high performance. As the RSV 1000 R has grown in power, so it has also improved in reliability. Special high strength con rods have now been added to make the engine more robust than ever. Aprilia was the first manufacturer to use a close ratio gearbox on a production bike. The RSV 1000 R's new close ratio box allows you to make full use of the V60 Magnesium engine's fantastic power more easily than ever before. The result is even more aggressive acceleration and exhilarating gear changes coming out of bends. This enhanced performance is perfect for road and track because the engine responds brilliantly even in the high gears, making the bike sportier and more fun to ride than ever.
Despite so much technical evolution, the characteristics that made the original RSV stand out are still there.
- Longitudinal 60° V twin engine with 4 valves per cylinder and double overhead camshaft, driven by a mixed chain and gear system.
- Electronic fuel injection with 57 mm throttle bodies, one injector per cylinder, and an 'Air Runner' ram air scoop.
- CDI ignition with one plug per cylinder. Ignition is controlled by the same integrated engine management system that also controls fuel injection.
- Dry sump lubrication with double trochoidal pump, separate oil tank and oil cooler.
- Mixed gear/chain valve timing drive with the two gears (one per timing chain) located in the crankcase to reduce cylinder head dimensions.
The RSV 1000 R's sophisticated twin cylinder engine also incorporates the following exclusive Aprilia patents:
- AVDC (Anti Vibration Double Countershaft).
- Hydraulic action clutch with radial master cylinder assisted by the patented PPC (Pneumatic Power Clutch) system to control rear wheel bounce during fierce braking.
The exhaust system is designed using all of Aprilia's Superbike championship experience. The system is a 2 into 1 into 2 exhaust made entirely in stainless steel, with 10/10 mm thick collectors and oval section cylinder head flanges in precision cast stainless steel. The silencer skins are in electroplated 8/10 mm stainless steel, and are assembled with straps and rivets in line with the latest racing practice. Even the location of the silencers has been specially calculated to minimize aerodynamic resistance and improve weight distribution. For 2005, the RSV 1000 R also features improved joints between the collector pipes and the silencers and shot-peened, satin-effect silencer ends.
Years of high level racing have allowed Aprilia's R&D section to design a frame that is acknowledged as the best production bike frame around. One of Aprilia's fixed objectives when designing the new RSV 1000 R frame was to achieve perfectly centralised mass. In line with Aprilia practice, the frame incorporates aluminium-silicon castings and Peraluman 450 pressings. The frame has been optimised by extensive finite element analysis and boasts excellent torsional rigidity though it weighs only 9,650 grams, a figure matched only by specialist racing frames.
Times change; riding styles change; and bikes must change too. For this reason, the frame and swingarm have been specifically designed for maximum efficiency and to enable riders to achieve perfect control over power slides into and out of bends. The new RSV 1000 R swingarm has been designed using the know how acquired in motorcycle GPs. Like the frame, it is made from extruded Peraluman and Al Si 7 castings. Its double member design provides a clear passage for the new twin silencer exhaust system. Here too, cross-sections and wall thicknesses have been optimised using finite element analysis. The RSV 1000 R swingarm weighs only 4,860 grams, well under the swingarm weight benchmark of 5 kg.
The Showa 43 mm upside down fork is a perfect compromise between sports performance and road-going comfort. It is derived from racing forks and provides continuous adjustment for preload as well as hydraulic adjustments for compression and rebound damping (2.25 turns for the former and 2.5 for the latter).
The Sachs rear monoshock incorporates a separate piggy back nitrogen cylinder and is adjustable in preload, compression, rebound and even length so that the rear end of the bike can be raised or lowered to achieve whatever setup may be required and to match rider preferences and other suspension adjustments.
Top supersports demand top quality brakes. The RSV 1000 R is at the cutting edge of technology, with radial calliper front brakes developed by Aprilia in conjunction with Brembo. Aprilia is no newcomer to sophisticated radial calliper technology. In fact Aprilia was the first manufacturer to use it, on a 250 GP racer.
The benefits of radial callipers for the rider are:
- More effective braking.
- More precise response to rider input. Wasted lever movement due to calliper 'elasticity' is almost completely eliminated because radial mounting prevents any movement of the calliper itself.
- Longer pad life. Radial callipers ensure better pad to disk alignment because the calliper remains rigidly aligned with its theoretical working position even under extreme stress. Better pad alignment means more even surface wear and therefore longer pad life.
- More consistent braking with less variation in performance between hot and cold.
The 320 mm floating steel disks on the front wheel feature narrower braking surfaces. This means reduced wheel weight and inertia and therefore more agile handling. The 2005 RSV 1000 R's radial callipers are combined with a radial master cylinder to form the most sophisticated braking system fitted to any current production bike. The front and rear braking circuits both use aeronautical metal braid hoses to eliminate the pressure variations associated with conventional rubber brake lines, guaranteeing maximum braking precision.
What places the Aprilia RSV 1000 R in a class of its own is the care taken in its design and manufacture and the attention paid to every single component on the bike. The result is increased performance and functionality, with reduced weight and a quality and finish that no other bike can equal.
Particular care has been taken to rationalise the RSV 1000 R's design. Fewer parts means fewer screws and less weight. The new RSV 1000 R has only 14 fairing and body parts. Even the fastenings have been designed in a wind tunnel to optimise air flow over the bike and improve CX and cooling.
The following components deserve a special mention:
- Radial calliper front brakes.
- Cast-formed calliper mounting for improved rigidity and braking consitency.
- The combined digital and analog dashboard receives data on all engine control parameters over a CAN line and incorporates memory to allow it to act as an integral part of the self-diagnostics system. The dashboard provides the same readouts as the previous model (including a self timer with a 40 lap memory). The dashboard is extremely modern and compact in design and weighs only 220 grams. All functions are controlled by three conveniently located keys. The LED backlighting may be set to three levels and is white for the analog instruments and red for the digital display.
- The headlight cluster incorporates four lights for perfect night riding vision. The great care taken over the design and finish of the RSV 1000 R also transpires from little but important details like bulb holders made from blue anodised aluminium.
- The white lens direction indicators are fully integrated in the bike's body. The front indicators are moulded into the rear view mirrors while the rear indicators are built into the tail. This means that there is no need to remove them for track use. The rear number plate holder can also be removed quickly and easily to comply with competition regulations.
- Even the ignition key is specially made for the RSV 1000 R and carries an internal identification code. The ignition block has an immobilizer fitted as standard.
The RSV 1000 R features eye-catching new graphics in Aprilia Black, Fluo Red and Mirror Silver. The real news, however, is the brand new graphic on the fairing. A stylised lion symbolises Aprilia's origins, the history of Venice and the history of Aprilia itself. (The lion was one of Aprilia's first logos.) The lion represents exotic places, fearless character, and sporting courage. More than just a graphic, the lion is part of art itself and a universally recognised symbol.

Traveling Tip 1 – Saving Money
One of the things I have people asking me is: “Why the heck would you travel to Japan? It’s so expensive there!”
Ironically this was coming from people who had never traveled there. Anyway, on one hand – yes, it is more expensive than other countries in Asia, such as Thailand, Singapore, Indonesia etc. However, when comparing to many western countries in Europe and America, it was relatively cheap to travel around Japan. Yes, Ryokans (traditional Japanese hotels), upper class restaurants and taxis can be expensive. But there are cheaper (and not necessarily lower quality) options. If you are traveling on a tight budget, have a read through to see how you might be able to save money as you travel around Japan!
In many places we went to in Japan, we stayed in private rooms at hostels. A private triple dorm room with shared toilet and shower facilities ended up costing between 2,500 to 3,000 yen per person per night (between $25-30 USD, 100 yen is approximately $1 USD). This is cheaper than many hostels I have stayed in other parts of the world in shared dorms. While the idea of staying in hostels may be off-putting for some, the standard of Japanese hostels is actually better than many hotels in the world. There are usually many facilities which are available as well, such as kitchens and free wireless internet access. Most places usually provide bedding, and have plenty of staff proficient in English who are willing to point out good places to visit/eat/have a great time. Many also host events for guests, such as cooking Takoyaki or having tours in nearby areas. I highly recommend searching on Hostelworld or checking out the likes of K’s House/J-Hoppers. There are several alternatives, such as cheap Ryokans or Minishukus, but Hostels are likely to be the cheapest and most accessible. Capsule hotels are another option, though I kind of get freaked out at the idea of sleeping in a box/coffin. One downside of hostels is that the rooms are on the smaller side, but all were large enough to fit in our luggage (and we had a lot!) with enough left over space for us to move around. Note that sometimes, the price of a night’s stay isn’t the only deciding factor. Vicinity to transport hubs, cost of traveling to and fro from accommodations, novelty etc should also be considered.
A trip to the nearest convenience store is highly recommended for grabbing breakfast. They usually have a large selection of bread/bento/onigiri. 2-3 buns/onigiri and a drink would cost about 500 yen. An alternative of course are fast food joints, though you deserve a smack on the head if you pig out at McDs for every single meal (at least go to a Japanese chain like Mos Burger)! Convenience stores are also a good place to get lunch, especially if you are likely to spend the day on the move and do not have time to look for food. Supermarkets/train stations are also good places to pick up bentos, though these are usually harder to find than convenience stores. Bakeries are also a good option. Items from bakeries are usually quite cheap, and are of much better quality than what I get back home (which is also usually double the price of what you can get in Japan)!
Many small restaurants would have a decent size meal for a reasonable price, especially at lunchtime (between 500 to 1,200 yen). There are also cheap eating outlets, such as Yoshinoya (beef bowls), or places which you use a vending machine to place your order. Some restaurants also have special sets. I had a bowl of ramen and some Karaage on rice cost for just 850 yen near Dogo Onsen in Matsuyama, and it was more than what I could eat.
First rule of travel – minimize your journey as much as possible. Less long distance travel equals less money being spent. That said, this could be your once in a lifetime trip, in which case you may want to see as much as you can. The most efficient form of transport between cities are trains. These are much more reasonably priced than most plane trips over short trips, and are much faster than buses. Take advantage of several discounts available to foreigners. The most well known discount is the National JR Pass. There are different durations available (7, 14 and 21 days) as well as cheaper regional alternatives. Once you have paid for this pass, you are allowed to ride just about every JR train available, INCLUDING SHIKANSENS (bullet trains), and you can also reserve seats for no additional fee (only using national pass). Note that the pass does not work for all Shinkansen, so make sure you pay attention to what train you want to take before hopping on. Do also make sure not to get a carriage that allows smoking (I found that out the hard way back on my school trip in 2003…)
If you are in no rush, highway buses are a great alternative (though I usually get travel sickness in buses especially on winding roads). These are usually cheaper, and does service remote areas which may not be serviced by trains. Some buses run overnight, which would save you an additional night’s accommodation cost if you use it (trains have this option too, but the price is almost the same as an expensive ryokan). However, I would not recommend this if you are looking to cover a very long distance and are running on a tight schedule (e.g. from Kyushuu to Hokkaido). You surely do not want to spend too much of your traveling time riding a bus. Plane flights on the other hand are by far the most expensive option, though there are also cheap discounts for foreigners. For example, if you had entered Japan flying on Singapore Airlines, you are eligible to get discounts on ANA flights (10,000 yen tickets from Sapporo to Fukuoka for example) as both flights are a member of Star Alliance. JAL has a similar discount with members of One World. This price is usually 3-5 times cheaper than what locals have to pay. Planes are more efficient to use when covering long distances. If traveling over short distances, remember that while the flight itself may be faster than trains, there is still time wasted during check-in/waiting for luggage/security checks. In addition, transport to/from airports can be pricey and a hassle in itself.
For travelling within a city, always look to see if there are day passes which would help save a lot of money. For example, Kyoto has a day pass for buses for 500 yen within the city centre area. This is worth it if you are planning to take at least 3 bus trips in a single day. Tokyo has passes for its local JR train network, as well as separate passes for each of the major subway companies. Some cities also have reasonably priced bicycle rentals. Consider using these, as they are a great way to see parts of a city you would otherwise not see. Of course, walking is the cheapest option, and might end up being a quicker option too if you are just taking a subway/bus between two adjacent stops!
4) ATTRACTIONS
While you might not notice it at first, attractions can cost a lot of money. A temple entrance fee here, a guided tour there, and it can all add up very quickly. The most efficient way is to plan out your activities. After your initial planning, sit back, look at your plan, and have a think – do you really want to go to all these places? I have heard cases of people visiting about half a dozen temples a day, and getting completely bored of them within a few days. Remember, quality over quantity! Visit less places, and spend more time to appreciate them. You might also find something else along the way which might warrant a detour. In addition, consider looking for attractions which are free. Many shrines in Kyoto are free to enter, such as Fushimi Inari Taisha, Yasaka Shrine, and Kitano Tenmangu Shrine. The Asakusa district in Tokyo is another good free traditional area.
FURTHER ADVICE – DO NOT REGRET NOT SPENDING!!!
While it is good to save as much money as possible, you should not hold back on experiencing something you really want to try. If you want to try staying at an extremely pricey Ryokan, take a day trip to another part of Japan, have a nice Kaiseki Ryori meal, or visit another temple – THEN DO IT! You would have likely paid a lot of money on airline tickets to get to Japan, so why not spend a few extra hundred dollars on enjoying yourself? If you are missing out on all these experiences, you might as well stay home. This is the same for travelling anywhere else in the world in general. The worst thing you can possibly do is return home regretting not spending a bit more to try something unique, for wasting energy or time by not using more efficient means of transport, or for not buying that souvenir you really wanted. Remember – experience and memories are priceless!

2012 Japan Trip Day 6 – Kyoto
Date of Travel: 04/02/2012
Time really does fly when you are having the time of your life. Before we knew it, the last day of the first leg of our trip had arrived. There was still plenty to see and do in Kyoto, so we checked out of our accommodation early and left our luggage at the hostel. We picked up some breakfast from a convenience store, took a bus from Kyoto Station to Kinkakuji temple, and had our breakfast at a small rest area along the approach to the entrance. Kinkakuji, along with Ginkakuji and Kiyomizudera, are among the most well known temples in Japan. It always brought back special memories for me, as it was the first temple I had ever visited in Japan when I went with my school group back in 2003.
The main building of interest is the golden pavilion, which sits on one end of a large lake. The lake itself was surrounded by many bonsai, and had a number of Koi, ducks and cranes swimming around. The whole scene felt peaceful and natural. It also helped that we were there relatively early, so there was not too much of a crowd. Apart from the building however, the rest of the temple ground was pretty average compared to Ginkakuji.
After leaving the Kinkakuji complex, we walked west along the road towards Ryoanji. While Ryoanji is well known for its rock garden, the size of the temple grounds was quite large. There was a small lake, with a small shrine area located on a tiny island on it. Ryoanji itself featured a beautiful tatami hall, with a veranda for visitors to rest and enjoy the rock garden. Interestingly, the rock garden featured about 15 rocks, all of which cannot be seen at the same time if the viewer remained stationary. Brownie and J.C. weren’t too impressed though, so we did not stay there very long.
Our next stop was Nijo Castle, but we could not figure out our preferred method to get there. One option was to use trams, but we found that this was a bit too pricey, and would not have been much faster than walking. As such, we ended up walking from Ryoanji all the way to Nijo Castle, which was about 5 km and took about an hour. We did stop at Yoshinoya along the way for lunch, which was pretty good for its price. When we finally arrived at Nijo Castle, it turns out that we were at the wrong end, as the entrance was to the east. After walking around the big block to the entrance, my back was killing me as I had been carrying around a heavier backpack than usual (since we had already packed everything). Luckily there were coin lockers available where I was able to dump my backpack. Nijo Castle itself is not as grand as other castles around Japan (e.g. Himeji, Matsuyama, and others). However, the openness of the compound, and the ability for visitors to actually wander around the interior (unlike the Imperial Palace) still made this worthwhile. Unfortunately we were not allowed to take photos of the interior.
As with many other similar attractions, Nijo Castle featured a nice lake and foliage. We were also able to climb the castle walls to have an overhead look of the compound. Personally I appreciated the castle grounds more than I did with the actual castle building itself. It was hard to believe that just over the castle walls were busy streets, again highlighting the uniqueness of Japanese cities.
On our way back to our accommodation, we decided to walk along Nishiki Market, which is known for selling plenty of food that is uncommon to see outside of Japan. Unlike many of the other areas we visited, this place was jammed pack with people. It was hard to maneuver around the narrow lanes, but then again, this was one of those places which should be enjoyed slowly. It gave us a good chance to take our time to see the unique food available. At the end of the alley (which stretched 5 blocks) was a tiny but busy shrine, and a western restaurant with one of the most impressive food displays I had seen thus far on this trip. I also bought a pair of boots here in anticipation for the second leg of our trip.
We headed back to the hostel to pick up our luggage. While there, we decided to eat at a café attached to the hostel. The food was cheap and was pretty good. The waiter was also very friendly, and was happy to practice English with us. A band was also setting up for the night gig, but unfortunately we had to leave in order to check-in at our next hotel before check-in time closes. We dragged our luggage back to Kyoto station, and took a train to Osaka. Once at Osaka, we transferred to another train which took us north to Itami airport. On one of the train trips we took along the way, there was only one other person on the train apart from us three. It was the most eerie train trip I had taken, as it felt like a ghost train. We checked in at Osaka Air Terminal Hotel, and spent the rest of the night channel surfing and resting up for our morning flight the next morning. It did feel slightly depressing that the first leg of our trip was over, but with so much left in our trip, there was still plenty to look forward to!

2012 Japan Trip Day 5 – Kyoto/Nara
Date of Travel: 03/02/2012
On this day, Japan celebrated Setsubun (day before spring begins). Many locals would visit temples and shrines to celebrate the event. There were a lot of activities happening around Kyoto, and we made our plans accordingly. We started the day purchasing breakfast from convenience stores (as we had done every other day so far on this trip). We then took a JR train from Kyoto Station to Inari Station, and had breakfast on the approach to the Fushimi Inari shrine.
The shrine is one of the most popular in Kyoto, and it was not surprising that it was full of people paying a visit. But our destination wasn’t the main shrine grounds. Rather, it was Inari-San that we were here for. We walked past a line of people paying their respects, around a building with several priests inside chanting, towards the back of the shrine grounds. We stood at the base of the path up the mountain and admired the seemingly endless row of Tori gates that greeted us. I had read about it and seen photos of it all over the internet, but the magical and mysterious feeling of the place was too overwhelming for words and photos to portray.
We walked along the path of Tori gates, passing by the occasional shrine, rest area, a lake, and miniature family shrines. We paused for a quick break at the main rest stop halfway up the mountain and admired the view of Kyoto. It never really occurred to us just how large Kyoto city was. If we had not been to any of the temples/shrines in the previous days, we would have thought of Kyoto was just another concrete jungle. It was amazing just how much is hidden away out-of-sight in Kyoto (or in Japan in general). We continued up the mountain, wandering around mini-shrines and what appears to be several grave. There was definitely an eerie feeling in the air as the density of Tori gates decreased while more and more graves were present.
After we descended from the mountain, we wandered around the shops looking for souvenirs and food in nearby areas. On the way back to the train station, Brownie started having hiccups. He asked J.C. and I to stand guard while he went behind a fence, laid down on the ground, threw his feet up against the fence, pushed against the fence with his feet such that his back was off the ground, and started drinking water while upside down. Must say, the sight of him doing that was almost as interesting as Fushimi Inari itself. Almost.
Our next destination was Nara, which like Kyoto, was once the capital of Japan. It was easily accessible by train from Inari station It is also famous for being one of the two major towns in Japan to have free roaming deer. A warning though – no matter how cute those creatures are, they can be very aggressive and vicious. Just ask anyone who purchased deer crackers and tried feeding them. There were a number of Japanese schoolgirls and tourists running for their lives, which was hilarious to watch…until one of those furballs started nibbling on my jacket.
We walked past the Deer Park to Todaiji temple, which in my opinion, is one of the most impressive temples in Japan. It is also one of the largest wooden structures in the world at one stage (it supposedly still is, though some other building in Norway claims to have that title). You can compare the size of it against the puny people walking into the building. It is also home to one of the largest Buddha statues in Japan. The sheer scale of the building made us feel small and insignificant! Inside the temple, there were other guardian statues, a miniature model of the temple, and a hole in a pillar which supposedly grants enlightenment to those who manage to crawl through it in their next life (we watched a big asian tourist try to squeeze through with a smile on our faces). Outside the temple is one of the creepiest statues I have ever seen, though it supposedly heals any ailments a person might have if they rub the respective body part of the statue.
After leaving the temple complex, we wandered around the surrounding park area and started heading towards Kasuga Taisha Shrine for the lantern display. Along the way, I managed to find my favourite orange flavoured drink in Japan called Qoo! In the meantime, Brownie satisfied his curiosity by buying an ice cream from a vending machine which had the perfect Engrish (see photo – and no, it did not provide Brownie with a richer life). As it was still quite bright, we decided to detour and find some dinner. The only place we managed to find was a small tea house at the base of the hill. The people who ran the place was extremely friendly. I ordered rice porridge and kaki-no-hazushi, the latter of which is a specialty of Nara which is a mackerel sushi wrapped in persimmon leaves. It wasn’t a filling dinner, but it was enough to keep us going for the rest of the night, and really helped warmed us up.
We started walking back up the hill towards Kasuga Taisha Shrine. I bought a paper lantern along the way and lit it up. However, Brownie got obsessed with taking a great photo of a statue of a deer. By the time he was done, the candle in my lantern went out! After ridiculing him about his COD complex when it came to taking photos, we continued towards the shrine complex. We passed by hundreds of stone lanterns along the way which were dimly lit. Within the shrine complex itself were more lanterns, and more Shinto Priests chanting away. Overall, the magical vibe of the stone lanterns made this one of the most memorable nights in recent memory.
On our way back to Kyoto, we ended up taking the wrong train which went in the opposite direction. Luckily, we noticed this immediately, and quickly changed trains at the very next stop! There was one more event in Kyoto which we were interested in going to at Yoshida Shrine, where a huge bonfire is held. However, we were completely wasted from such a long day that we decided to just crash at our hostel (it was quite late by the time we arrived back anyway). We were quite hungry, so we stopped by a convenience store along the way to get some snacks. I ended up buying the popular “pudding” dessert, which is essentially just Crème Brule. It was a great midnight snack, and a nice relaxed way to end yet another awesome day.

2012 Japan Trip Day 4 – Kyoto/Kobe
Date of Travel: 02/02/2012
The first order of the day was to obtain the second JR Kansai pass which we were going to use to get from Kyoto to Kobe. Once this was done, we took a detour and walked over to Toji Temple, home of the tallest 5-storey pagoda in Japan. Unfortunately, many of its buildings were under renovation. In addition, the sun was located right behind the pagoda, making it very difficult to take good pictures. Inside the pagoda, we were able to see the wood work which went on in the foundations which was an amazing sight. Shortly after, a tour guide spotted Brownie (the only non-asian of our travelling group) and tried to explain the history of the grounds to him. Whenever she struggled to find the words, she would speak it in Japanese to the other two of us. We would just nod our heads, pretending to understand what she was saying. Once she found out that we were completely clueless, we all had a good laugh! We arrived back at the train station shortly after to take a train to Kobe. It was a local train with no toilets on board, and it was a 1.5 hour journey to Kobe. Due to my anxiety issues, my bladder decided “hey, let’s pretend you need to take a piss!” We hopped off the train in Osaka so that I can quickly hit the bathroom. I had accounted for the possibility of this but it didn’t really matter since the next train was coming in a few minutes…or so I thought. For some reason there was a large delay, and the next train only came about 45 minutes later! Go figure.
As it was close to lunchtime, we decided to get off at Sannomiya station to have some Kobe Beef at Kobe Steakland. Unfortunately I left the map at the hostel, so I asked the nearby information desk for directions. Turns out they were absolutely clueless, and we ended up on the wrong street. Going by my memory, we managed to find it just 5 minutes later thankfully. And boy was it worth it. While I was the only one who went for Kobe Beef, all of us were satisfied with our lunch. After the filling lunch, onwards to the Akashi Kaikyo Bridge (longest suspension bridge span in the world at the time we visited) we went. We struggled to walk from the train station to the information centre due to the extremely strong wind. At one stage, Jay-C tried jumping up, only for the wind to blow him backwards several feet! But none the less, the bridge was an amazing sight to behold, though once again the sun was in the wrong place.

On the way back towards Kobe, Jay-C wanted to take a detour to have a look at the Tetsujin-28-go (Gigantor) statue which he had spotted from the train. It was fun trying to take photos of it in creative positions. After about 15 minutes of photo taking, we went back towards Kobe for one of the attractions I really wanted to go – the Earthquake Museum…which to my dismay was closed just several minutes before we arrived! It was due to struggling to follow really badly written maps and underestimating the distance between the train station and the museum. But at least the exterior was beautiful! Luckily I managed to drown my sorrow with plenty of omurice and taiyaki at a neighbouring mall.
Tetsujin-28-go statue (top left and right), Earthquake Museum (bottom left), and Omurice dinner (bottom right)
We decided to end the day by visiting the Kobe Harbour area, and I was wanting to use a subway to get there (since the subway entrance was right in front of us). Instead, Jay-C wanted to use the JR trains since we have a pass for it. In the end, it took about another 40 minutes to find the train. By the time we got to Kobe Habour, my feet were killing me. Still, we managed to walk around half the habour area before my feet decided that enough was enough. We spotted a few interesting things along the way (e.g. a random Elvis statue in the middle of nowhere playing “Suspicious Minds”), but we still had washing to do and hence hopped on a train back towards Kyoto, but not before taking plenty of pictures around the habour (including the red bridge used in the Fate series). Once we got back to the hostel, Jay-C and I did the laundry while Brownie fell asleep while holding his bible! As we were too lazy to find a place to dump his clothes, we just dumped it onto him! Don’t think he realized till the next morning. Either way, it was perhaps our most tiring day of the trip thus far and filled with some disappointments, but overall still a very good day!

2012 Japan Trip Day 3 – Kyoto
Date of Travel: 01/02/2012
We started off the day by stopping by a convenience store to pick up some breakfast. It was the second morning in a row which we did this, and it would soon become the norm for the rest of our trip! We then headed over to Kyoto Train Station to take our first subway ride of our trip towards Imperial Palace, which was one of the few tourist attractions that was in close proximity from a subway station. Though the Imperial Palace compound itself is small, the park surrounding it is massive (1.3km spanning North-South and 0.75km spanning East-West). We found a quiet spot at the North-Western corner near the Konoe Pond and ate our breakfast, then wandered around to find the Imperial Agency Office to join the English Imperial Palace tour. The tour itself is free, but advanced reservations are required which we luckily arranged a few weeks prior. I am sure that neither of us actually paid any attention to the lady speaker, and just went nuts taking photos of everything. Unfortunately, due to the compactness of the buildings around the ground, none of us could really take any good photos of anything apart from the little Japanese garden. Also, we were not allowed in any of the buildings and could only admire its exterior.
The Imperial Palace grounds
After the tour, we wandered around the Palace grounds a bit more to admire the spaciousness of the outer park area (which was vastly different compared to the claustrophobic nature of the city centre). We visited several buildings, such as an information area and an old office/school building. It had unfortunately started to rain a bit, and we were unsure of our afternoon plans of heading over to the Arashiyama, which is located West of the main part of Kyoto city. We decided to find some place to eat while deciding what our plans would be for the rest of the afternoon. Lunch itself was an interesting experience. It was the first time we ordered our food via a ticket vending machine. Food came out really fast, and was surprisingly good considering how cheap it was.
Wandering around the Imperial Palace park
The skies cleared up considerably after lunch, so we decided to stick to our original plan of heading over to Arashiyama. Once we arrived at Arashiyama, we almost got ourselves lost trying to find out way through some small back alleys to the main street from the JR station. We finally reached the town area, and found its relaxed atmosphere refreshing. We went straight for Togetsukyo Bridge (which was featured in an episode of K-ON!!), then backtracked to Tenryuji temple. While the temple itself had nothing that immediately stood out; its central garden, the hallway to the altar at the back, and the interior which is visible to the public gave the temple a very calm and peaceful atmosphere. Probably also helped that it had less people compared to some of the earlier temples we had visited.
Arashiyama and Tenryuji Temple
After Tenryuji, we walked along the main roads towards Adashino Nenbutsuji. The walk was longer than I thought (about 30-40 minutes). By the time we did arrive, Adashino Nenbutsuji was already closed! While I was a bit disappointed, we laughed it off and took a different route back to the train station. This time, we walked the Bamboo Grooves, which is a short 10-20 minute walk along a path lined with Bamboo trees. We did also passed a nice quiet lake and old specialty shops along the way. I had however completely forgotten to remove my UV filter despite it being such a cloudy day, and as a result most photos came out dull and dark.
Northwest Arashiyama, and Bamboo Groves
We returned back to the city area to meet one of my friends from Fukui. However, he had a dentist appointment and ended up being very late. Nonetheless, there was still plenty to do around Kyoto Station. We visited the Kyoto Tower (first time I went up there despite being in Kyoto twice before), and visited several shops around the station. When my friend came, we requested that we go somewhere that has plenty of vegetables for dinner due to having a lack of greens over the past few days. We ended up going to a buffet restaurant, and was perhaps the worst meal I had of the whole trip as most of the food was cold, was mostly finished, and was pretty darn pricey (though my friend paid for it…which made me feel even worse). But either way, it was great catching up with my friend again, and it was yet another great but exhausting day of travelling overall.

2012 Japan Trip Day 2 – Kyoto
Date of Travel: 31/01/2012
I woke up at around 7 am to a bright morning in Kyoto. I was surprised at how energized I felt considering how dead tired we were the night before. Brownie and Jay-C were still asleep, so I decided to let them snooze for a while longer while I freshened up, picked up my camcorder, and went out for a quick stroll down the road. I didn’t have to venture very far, as one of the bridges crossing the Kamo river was located just a minute or two away by foot. It was a beautiful sight, and highly contrasts the concrete jungle of the area around the Kyoto Train Station. After taking in the scenery, I headed back to the hostel to wake up the other two sleepy heads. It was another hour later before we finally headed out to explore the Eastern side of the city.

While researching about Kyoto, I had read on several websites that one of the best ways to go around the city was on bicycles. Luckily our accommodation had some rental bikes for about the same price as a bus pass during winter. We decided to rent a few for the day, and it was well worth it! We biked up north along the eastern side of the Kamo River (stopping by a convenience store to pick up some breakfast along the way) then headed east through Kyoto University before finally arriving at Ginkakuji.

This was my third time at Ginkakuji, and the walk up the hill past the small restaurants, souvenir and Yatsuhashi stores with the constant chime of “Irashaimase!!!” was very nostalgic. The grounds of Ginkakuji was more beautiful than I had remembered. The moss covering the ground and trees was something I did not see often back in my home country. The sight of the main building surrounded by foliage, a small pond, and a sand garden to its right showed off the simplistic yet beautiful architecture/landscaping which Japan was well known for. Although there was a large crowd, it did not ruin my enjoyment of the temple grounds at all.

After exploring the temple grounds for a good 40-50 minutes, we headed down the slope back towards the shops. We decided to have an early lunch at a small cafe. I had been to this same cafe on my previous two trips, and on both occasions I ordered curry udon. Looking to keep the tradition alive, I went for curry udon once again! After having lunch and purchasing some delicious Yatsuhashi (which we felt obliged to as they had offered us nice warm tea for free) we hopped back on our bikes and went south along the Philosopher’s Path towards Higashiyama. Even though the Sakura trees were completely bare (as it was winter), the bike ride was very pleasant. I could only imagine how beautiful it would have been if it was spring.

A couple of hours later, we finally arrived at Higashiyama. However, we had problems finding a place to leave our bikes. We ended up having to pay 200 yen to leave our bikes at a parking lot down the bottom of the hill. The path back up the hill to Kiyomizudera was once again full of shops and restaurants. However, as it was mid afternoon at that time, the place was packed, and as a result we did not enjoy it as much as the approach to Ginkakuji earlier in the day. Nonetheless, it was still worth exploring. Kiyomizudera was beautiful and had a very good view of the city. However with all the construction work going on, we can’t help but feel that the atmosphere of the temple was ruined somewhat. Still, this was a temple that I had always wanted to visit, and it still surpassed my expectations of it. We also had some fun at the Jitsu Shrine watching people walk from one stone to another without looking (which supposedly brings good fortunes for finding love if one is successful). One lucky guy managed to succeed, though he did trip over the other stone at the end.

Yasaka Shrine was next on our list. Though we had visited it the day before, we wanted to see how it looked like during the daytime. To my surprise, the atmosphere of the shrine was completely different. There were more people around, and the sunlight allowed us to focus more on the architecture of the buildings. The simplicity of the architecture was beautiful. We spent the rest of the day strolling through other parts of Gion we had not been to yet, had dinner in the central city area, then went back to explore the Shirakawa area of Gion. After the stroll, we hopped back on our bikes and cycled back to our accommodation for yet another good night’s rest.

2012 Japan Trip Day 1 – Kyoto
Date of Travel: 30/01/2012
I was tired. Really tired. I could barely sleep the eve of the day of our flight (29th Jan) due to all the excitement and anticipation. We had been eagerly waiting for this for the past six months after all. All the research on places to go, all the planning – it had all led up to this moment at last. It did not help that it took 24 hours to reach Kansai Airport from our homeland of Christchurch, New Zealand; which also included a stopover in Singapore for over seven hours. I did manage to find a nice quiet corner to rest, but still couldn’t get any shut-eye. But none of that seemed to matter. We had finally arrived at Kansai airport. The adrenaline from all the excitement kept me awake. We made our way through past customs in a daze, picked up our luggage, navigated our way to the mail room to pick up our rental mobile phone, and somehow managed to find our way out of the airport to the JR station. There, we picked up JR West Kansai 1-Day passes we had purchased through H.I.S in New Zealand, and used it to get onto the Haruka Express to our first destination – Kyoto.
Flying over the Southern Alps in New Zealand
The train ride from Kansai Airport to Kyoto took about 1.5 hours. It was definitely longer than I had remembered. Nonetheless, it was an eye opener. The Japanese architecture, the denseness of the buildings, the narrow roads, the countless train stations we passed; these were a stark reminder that we are no longer in familiar territory.
Taking the Kansai Express to Kyoto
Upon arriving at the station, we went straight to our accommodation (K’s House Kyoto) to drop off our luggage. Thankfully it was only a short 5 to 10 minute walk to the train station. I cannot imagine having to travel in a crowded bus or to walk somewhere further in the state which we were in. After dropping off our luggage, we went back to the train station to find something to eat as it was lunchtime. Despite the fact that I had been to the train station several times before, the sight of how large it is still amazes me. There was also a light snowfall at the time, something I had not experienced in Japan before (my two previous trips to Japan was during summer).
Wandering around Kyoto JR Station
Before finding a place to eat, we went up the escalators to the very top. From there, we had a good view of the surrounding city area. While Kyoto is known as the traditional, spiritual, and cultural center of Japan, the city center screams of a concrete jungle. I have heard that many were disappointed with this sight initially, but not for me. I always found it fascinating how so much history is being hidden behind all the concrete. We headed down a few floors to the main row of restaurants in the Isetan department store, and went for the safe option of deep fried food (katsu) since it was our very first meal. I am usually not a fan of deep fried stuff, but this was delicious. I really do like the way that Japan does katsu, as they are really good at making it crispy yet not oily. They had free refills of rice, salad, and soup too. A fantastic meal to kick-off our trip!

After lunch, we walked over to Sanjusangendo despite my legs and back starting to give way due to fatigue. The temple is located only a few blocks away from our accommodation, so it wasn’t too far to walk. The main building is one of the longest wooden halls in the world, and houses hundreds of buddist statues. The sight of all the statues lined up in rows was breathtaking, and it was about that time when it finally sunk in that we were in Japan. Unfortunately we were unable to take any photos within the hall, though I did purchase a book as a souvenir.

We went back to our accommodation for a quick break and also to pick up some warmer clothes before heading off to find Pontocho. It was getting dark, and unfortunately none of us had a good map that showed the exact location of Pontocho. We ended up walking straight past it without noticing! When we realized this, we decided to skip it and head over to Gion instead since it was closer. The part of Gion we went to was the Shirakawa area. The area was full of traditional Japanese buildings and featured a canal running along the footpath. The canal was lined with overhanging trees and traditional lanterns which help emit a calm and peaceful atmosphere. It was beautiful, especially with the lamps being reflected on the water surface. The atmosphere was a sharp contrast to the busy and hectic city centre area which was only a few blocks away. I went crazy taking photos, but did not realize that my camera filter was still on. This caused all my photos to come out really dark, which was a disappointment.
The beautiful Gion district
On the way back to our accommodation, we got lost and ended up at Yasaka Shrine. It was the first time I had been to a shrine at night. However with the shrine less crowded and the lanterns lit up, it definitely gave us a chance to appreciate the place more. After exiting the shrine, we headed back towards our hostel and stopped by Coco’s Curry House for dinner along the way. After quickly planning the itinerary for the next day, I turned in for a good night’s rest. My body really needed it!

Book Review: Minding The Heart by Robert Saucy – Solid-State Apologetics
January 29, 2014 Donnie II Books
Book Review: Minding The Heart by Robert Saucy
Proverbs 4:23 tells us to guard our hearts with vigilance because from it flow springs of life. In short, this book is about guarding your heart but it’s also about personal transformation and the road which leads there. Minding the Heart: The Way of Spiritual Transformation is a book desperately needed today amongst the up and coming generation of church leaders. From what I have noticed, we want to emphasize deep theological commitments and far-reaching social ministers but we falter when it comes to personal transformation and what Jonathan Edwards called, “religious affections”.
I must admit when I first received this book I immediately thought it was going to be like every other book in the spiritual growth section of the bookstore. I figured the author would speak of how evil my heart was and how much harder I needed to try to fix that in order to be right before God’s holy throne. Since I was judging a book by its cover I was really in for a surprise when I began to dive into the pages of this text.
Saucy does begin his book by describing our heart and what is revealed in Scripture regarding this vital organ. He begins with the gospel and what Christ has done to change our evil hearts. He speaks of attitude, growth, and a human flourishing which does not mean we have our best lives now, but it means we are a work in progress and our hearts are the main engine propelling us in this journey. In the first section of the book Saucy dives into the heart and examines it from a variety of perspectives and disciplines. He gives a bit of psychology and then moves along those same lines to a philosophical understanding of the heart.
He then goes on to bring the reader into the core of the heart and it’s method of transformation, the gospel. He picks up the topic of renewal in the mind as the conduit through which the heart may be transformed as well. Urging the reader to be filled with Scripture because God is active in it Saucy notes, “To be sure a person is surely more than his words, but his words cannot be separated from him. The most significant means through which we reveal ourselves to another as persons is through our words. Our words reveal our heat, for ‘the mouth speaks out of that which fills the heart’ (Matt 12:34. God’s Word is thus God speaking to us from his heart.”
From the mind and meditation we move into the community of believers as a method for transformation and what that looks like. Saucy relates ancient Israel as a community who were transformed by God to be his people and so it is the same with us today. By being united to Christ we are transformed into people he has created for his glory. On the earthly side of the coin by being united to one another in love we experience the unique relationships which cause us to truly be ourselves. Apart from this community our flourishing may be slow or non-existent and so it becomes that community of people which God uses to grow us as into mature beings.
In the remaining sections of the book Saucy points us toward a holistic view of the heart and transformation, making much of the obedience of faith and dying to ourselves. He roots these in the command of God to love which trumps all other commands. From early on in my Christian walk I was exposed to this concept of loving God and loving people. I was told that if I were to do these two things then there would be no room for sin. You can’t love God and love people and sin all at the same time.
Saucy concludes by pointing us to Scripture. He shows us the gospel in a way that anyone can understand. He speaks of the yoke of Christ, and the extent to which we receive it, as being the fountain of transformation. This book seems to come from a man who has bore this yoke for some time now and, though not perfectly, has found out this yoke to be a joy even in the rough parts of life.
I enjoyed this book as I read about how the heart can truly be changed. It’s not a way many may think of or even be bold enough to try. It’s a long road to transformation which requires faith-wrought obedience and a diligence in guarding your heart. The actions don’t stop there though. Transformation continues in us when we seek out a community of believers and share our lives with them as a part of our union with Christ. Since we have this same union let us be slow in giving up and persevere in our walk with Christ. This book has opened up new avenues of growth in my own life and I pray will change everyone who picks up this volume. This is not just another spiritual growth book that is intended for the masses, this is a book intended for the believers who are guarding their hearts as the wellspring of life.

The present invention relates to an automatic vending machine which enables merchandise sales processing using a non-contact IC card and a sales method thereof, and more particularly to an automatic vending machine which enables highly reliable merchandise sales processing without complicating operations, and a sales method thereof
Automatic vending machines which enable the purchasing of products using a non-contact IC card have been proposed in the prior art.
In Japanese Patent Application Laid-Open No. 6-176251, when a user depresses a set button on an automatic vending machine, products become selectable after the price of a single product or the entire amount is deducted in advance from monetary amount information which is stored on the card of the user. In a case where the entire amount is deducted from the monetary amount information stored on the card, the user selects a product, and following payment for the selected product, the balance which remains following subtraction of the cost of the product that was paid for from the entire amount of the monetary amount information stored on the card, which was deducted from the card in advance, is refunded to the card.
In Japanese Patent Application Laid-Open No. 10-232955, product selection becomes possible when the user depresses a purchase button or when a human-detecting sensor detects the user. After the user has selected a product, the cost is deducted from the card and the product is dispensed.
However, in a system in which an amount of money is deducted from the card prior to purchase, as in Japanese Patent Application Laid-Open No. 6-176251, the product cost may not be returned when the user does not purchase the product.
Further, upon selection of a product in Japanese Patent Application Laid-Open No. 10-232955, the user may select a product which costs more than the amount of money on the card.
It is therefore an object of this invention to provide an automatic vending machine in which a user can check which products may be purchased prior to the selection of a product and in which payment is deducted from a card after the user has selected a desired purchase, and to provide a sales method thereof
In order to achieve the aforementioned object, an automatic vending machine of the invention described in claim 1 comprises: short range communication means for performing short range communication with a communication medium which is carried by a user; reader/writer means for reading from the communication medium via the short range communication means an authentication code for this communication medium and monetary amount information stored on this communication medium, and for rewriting the monetary amount information stored on the communication medium following a sale of a product; storage means for temporarily storing the authentication code and the monetary amount information read out from the communication medium by the reader/writer means; product dispensation means for dispensing a product; and control means in which a judgment is made as to whether or not the sale of a product is possible on the basis of the authentication code and monetary amount information read out from the communication medium by the short range communication means, whereupon, if the sale is possible, this authentication code and monetary amount information are stored in the storage means and the selection of a product is awaited, and in which the authentication code and monetary amount information of the communication medium are read for a second time by the short range communication means following the selection of a product, whereby, if the authentication code and monetary amount information read out for the second time and the authentication code and monetary amount information stored in the storage means match, the monetary amount information stored in the communication medium is updated to monetary amount information obtained by deducting a price of the selected product from the monetary amount information which was read for the second time, and, following the update of the monetary amount information, the product is dispensed by the product dispensation means.
The invention in claim 2, according to the invention in claim 1, is constituted such that when the product cannot be dispensed by the product dispensation means, the authentication code of the communication medium is read from the communication medium for a second time, and, if the read out authentication code and the authentication code stored in the storage means match, the deducted monetary amount information is added to the monetary amount information on the communication medium.
Thereby, when a product cannot be dispensed due to the occurrence of a malfunction in the automatic vending machine such as a product blockage, the price of the product that could not be dispensed may be refunded to the communication medium. Further, in the invention of claim 3, according to the invention in claim 1, the communication medium comprises a non-contact IC card, and the short range communication means reads from the non-contact IC card an authentication code of the non-contact IC card and monetary amount information stored on the non-contact IC card when the non-contact IC card is within an effective distance of radio waves emitted from the short range communication means, and rewrites the monetary amount information stored on the non-contact IC card following the sale of a product. In the invention in claim 4, according to the invention in claim 3, an effective distance from radio waves emitted by the short range communication means is several centimeters.
In the invention of claim 5, according to the invention in claim 1, the communication medium comprises a portable communication terminal having infrared communication means, and wherein the short range communication means performs infrared communications with the infrared communication means of the portable communication terminal to read from the portable communication terminal an authentication code of the portable communication terminal and monetary amount information stored on the portable communication terminal, and rewrites the monetary amount information stored in the portable communication terminal following the sale of a product.
Further, the invention in claim 6 is a sales method of an automatic vending machine for selling a product by performing payment processing by means of short range communication with a communication medium which is carried by a user, comprising: a first step of reading an authentication code of the communication medium and monetary amount information stored on the communication medium from the communication medium; a second step of judging whether or not the sale of a product is possible based on the authentication code and monetary amount information read in the first step; a third step of, if the sale of a product is possible in the second step, storing the authentication code and monetary amount information and awaiting the selection of a product; a fourth step of selecting a product; a fifth step of reading the authentication code and monetary amount information of the communication medium for a second time following the selection of a product in the fourth step; a sixth step of comparing the authentication code and monetary amount information which were read for a second time in the fifth step and the stored authentication code and monetary amount information; a seventh step of, if the authentication code and monetary amount information which were read for a second time and the stored authentication code and monetary amount information match in the sixth step, updating the monetary amount information stored on the communication medium to monetary amount information obtained by deducting the price of the selected product from the monetary amount information which was read for a second time; and an eighth step of dispensing the product following the update of the monetary amount information in the seventh step.
Further, in the invention of claim 7, according to the invention in claim 6, the method further comprises: a ninth step of, if a product cannot be dispensed in the eighth step, reading the authentication code of the communication medium from the communication medium for a second time; and a tenth step of, if the authentication code read out in the ninth step and the stored authentication code match, adding the price of the product which could not be dispensed to the monetary amount information on the communication medium.
Thus, according to this invention, when a non-contact IC card is held up for the first time against an automatic vending machine which is in standby mode, the automatic vending machine simply displays the balance of the card and indicates the products available for sale without extracting any of the monetary amount information from the non-contact IC card. When the non-contact IC card is held up for a second time following the selection of a product, payment processing is performed such that the monetary amount information on the non-contact IC card is updated, and hence, no unnecessary payment deductions are made from the cards of users other than a user with a definite desire to purchase a product, as a result of which highly reliable card sales can be realized.
Moreover, when a product cannot be dispensed due to a product blockage or the like and in spite of the fact that payment has been extracted from the card, processing to refund the payment is performed by holding the card up to the automatic vending machine for a second time, whereby card sales with an even higher level of reliability can be realized.
Furthermore, the antenna section can be easily attached to a banknote identifying machine or the like, and thus an existing automatic vending machine can be made to respond easily to slight improvements. The automatic vending machine may also be used with cash, and therefore product sales can be realized with ease.

An embodiment of the automatic vending machine according to this invention will be explained in detail below with reference to the attached drawings.
FIG. 1 is a view showing an example of the outer appearance of the automatic vending machine according to this invention, and FIG. 2 is a block diagram showing an example of the constitution of the main components for controlling sales using a non-contact IC card from among the control circuit of the automatic vending machine in FIG. 1.
In FIG. 1, an automatic vending machine 10 is an automatic vending machine which performs product sales by means of cash and which is also capable of product sales using a non-contact IC card. The automatic vending machine 10 comprises a product display section 20 in which product samples are displayed and a plurality of product selection buttons 21 are arranged so as to correspond to each product, a coin insertion slot 31 for inserting coins, a banknote insertion slot 32 for inserting banknotes, a return lever 33 for returning change, a display section 40 for displaying various types of information such as monetary amount information, sales mode lamps 41, 42 for indicating the current sales mode, a coin return port 5, a product dispensation port 6, and an antenna section 7 for supplying power to the non-contact IC card and performing data read/write operations.
A lamp is provided on the product selection buttons 21 for indicating that the corresponding product is available for sale. This lamp lights up when the corresponding product becomes available for sale in response to the value of the product (cash or monetary amount information stored on the non-contact IC card) being inserted into the automatic vending machine 10.
The antenna section 7 emits radio waves constantly and performs communications by supplying power to a non-contact IC card placed within the area of effectiveness of the radio waves. Here, the area of effectiveness of the radio waves emitted by the antenna section 7 is set at a range of several centimeters from the antenna section 7, whereby communications with the non-contact IC card are not performed when a user purposely holds the non-contact IC card away from the antenna section 7. Placing the non-contact IC card within the area of effectiveness of the radio waves emitted by the antenna section 7 will be referred to hereinbelow as “holding the non-contact IC card up to the antenna section 7”.
The sales mode lamps 41, 42 display whether the automatic vending machine 10 is in cash sales mode (whereby sales mode lamp 41 is illuminated) in which sales are performed using cash, or card sales mode (whereby sales mode lamp 42 is illuminated) in which sales are performed using a non-contact IC card. This sales mode is determined by an initial operation which is performed in respect of the automatic vending machine 10 which is in standby mode. If cash is inserted through the coin insertion slot 31 or the banknote insertion slot 32, then cash sales mode is determined, whereas if a non-contact IC card is held up to the antenna section 7, card sales mode is determined.
Note that a sales mode selection button for selecting the sales mode may also be provided as a separate component on the automatic vending machine 10, whereby a user operates this sales mode selection button to determine the sales mode.
Further, if the automatic vending machine 10 is to be capable of sales using non-contact IC cards only, then the coin insertion slot 31, banknote insertion slot 32, return lever 33 and coin return port 5 become unnecessary.
As is illustrated in FIG. 2, the automatic vending machine 10 is constituted by a main control section 11, a card reader/writer (R/W) 12, a money processing section 13, a product dispensation processing section 14, a display section 40, and the antenna section 7.
The main control section 11 performs overall control of the sale of products by controlling each section of the automatic vending machine 10. The card reader/writer 12 is connected to the antenna section 7, and performs read processing and write processing of data from the non-contact IC card which is held up to the antenna section 7. The money processing section 13 performs processing for accepting money corresponding to the value of a product, returning change, and so on. The product dispensation processing section 14 performs product dispensation processing based on control signals from the main control section 11. The display section 40 displays various types of information (the amount of money inserted etc.) relating to product sales on the basis of control signals from the main control section 11.
FIG. 3 is a flowchart explaining the flow of processing of the automatic vending machine in standby mode to the determination of the sales mode.
As is illustrated in FIG. 3, the sales mode of the automatic vending machine 10 is determined by whether cash is inserted or a non-contact IC card is held up to the automatic vending machine in standby mode. If cash is inserted (YES in step 101), cash sales mode for performing sales processing using cash (that is, sales processing similar to that of a typical automatic vending machine) is determined (step 104), and if a non-contact IC card is held up to the antenna section 7 (YES in step 102), card sales mode for performing sales processing using a non-contact IC card is determined (step 103).
FIG. 4 is a flowchart explaining the flow of sales processing in the automatic vending machine 10 when in card sales mode.
When a non-contact IC card is held up to the antenna section 7 (YES in step 102), the card reader/writer 12 reads from the non-contact IC card an in-built authentication code and monetary amount information stored on the card and then notifies the main control section 11 thereof (step 201). The main control section 11 checks the authentication code read from the non-contact IC card by the card reader/writer 12 and makes a judgment based thereon as to the validity of the non-contact IC card (step 202). If the card is judged to be valid (YES in step 202), the sales mode lamp 42 is illuminated to indicate card sales mode, whereupon the read out monetary amount information is displayed on the display section 40 and the lamps of the product selection buttons 21 corresponding to products which are available for sale within this monetary amount are illuminated (step 203). The main control section 11 temporarily stores the authentication code and monetary amount information read from the non-contact IC card as a transaction code.
When one of the buttons from among the product selection buttons 21 with illuminated lamps is depressed (YES in step 204), the main control section 11 confirms the product to be sold by extinguishing the lamps of the product selection buttons other than the depressed product selection button 21, and then waits for the non-contact IC card to be held up to the antenna section 7 for a second time (step 205). When the non-contact IC card is held up to the antenna section 7 (YES in step 205), the card reader/writer 12 reads the authentication code and monetary amount information from the non-contact IC card and notifies the main control section 11 thereof (step 206). The main control section 11 compares the transaction code comprising the authentication code and monetary amount information read out the second time with the previously stored transaction code to judge whether or not the two transaction codes are identical (step 207). If the codes are identical (YES in step 207), the price of the product corresponding to the depressed product selection button 21 is deducted from the notified monetary amount information, whereby the monetary amount information stored on the non-contact IC card is updated (step 208). Thereafter, an order for product dispensation is given to the product dispensation processing section 14. The product dispensation processing section 14 receives the order from the main control section 11 and dispenses the product corresponding to the depressed product selection button 21 to the product dispensation port 6 (step 209).
If, on the other hand, the transaction code of the non-contact IC card which was held up following the depression of the product selection button 21 does not match the stored transaction code (NO in step 207), the main control section 11 checks the authentication code of the non-contact IC card which was held up following depression of the product selection button 21 (return to step 202), and if this authentication code is valid (YES in step 202), updates the stored transaction code (authentication code and monetary amount information) to the transaction code of the non-contact IC card which was held up following depression of the product selection button (step 203).
In other words, if the transaction code of the non-contact IC card which was held up prior to depression of the product selection button 21 and the transaction code of the non-contact IC card which was held up following depression of the product selection button 21 do not match, sales processing subject to the non-contact IC card which was held up prior to the depression of the product selection button 21 is canceled, whereupon sales processing is performed from step 202 with the non-contact IC card which was held up following depression of the product selection button 21 as the new transaction partner.
Note that the automatic vending machine 1 may also be immediately reset to standby mode when the transaction code of the non-contact IC card which was held up prior to depression of the product selection button 21 and the transaction code of the non-contact IC card which was held up following depression of the product selection button 21 do not match (NO in step 207).
When a product cannot be dispensed through the product dispensation port 6 due to product blockages or the like and regardless of the fact that the product has been selected and the price thereof charged from the non-contact IC card (NO in step 210), the main control section 11 informs the user of the malfunction by displaying such information on the display section 40 and waits for the non-contact IC card to be held up to the antenna section 7 (step 211). When the non-contact IC card is held up to the antenna section 7 (YES in step 211), the card reader/writer 12 reads the authentication code from the non-contact IC card and informs the main control section 11 thereof (step 212). The main control section 11 compares the notified authentication code and the previously stored authentication code (step 213), and if the two authentication codes match (YES in step 213), the price of the corresponding product is refunded to the non-contact IC card (step 214).
Note that the modes of awaiting depression of a product selection button 21 (step 203) and awaiting a non-contact IC card to be held up (steps 204, 211) are canceled after the elapse of a predetermined amount of time, whereby the automatic vending machine 10 is reset to standby mode.
Further, the modes of awaiting depression of a product selection button 21 (step 203) and awaiting a non-contact IC card to be held up (steps 204, 211) may be canceled upon detection of an operation of the return lever 33, and the automatic vending machine 10 may be reset to standby mode according to the will of the user. Also, a specialized reset button for resetting the automatic vending machine 10 may of course be provided.
FIG. 5 is a view explaining a specific example of product sales by means of the automatic vending machine 10.
First, a user holds a non-contact IC card up to the antenna section 7 of the automatic vending machine 10 until the sales mode lamp 42 is illuminated.
The automatic vending machine 10 checks the validity of the card by reading the authentication code and monetary amount information from the non-contact IC card which has been held up to the antenna section 7. If the card is valid, the sales mode lamp 42 indicating card sales mode is illuminated, whereby the lamps of the product selection buttons 21 corresponding to the products which are available for sale are illuminated. The read out authentication code and monetary amount information are also stored.
The user depresses the product selection button 21 which corresponds to the desired product from among the illuminated product selection buttons 21.
The automatic vending machine 10 confirms the product to be sold by extinguishing the lamps of the product selection buttons 21 other than the depressed product selection button, or in other words by leaving only the lamp of the depressed product selection button 21 illuminated, and then requests the user to hold the non-contact IC card up to the antenna section 7 for a second time. This request may be performed by causing the touch panel surface of the antenna section 7 to flash or the like and then by illuminating the touch panel surface at the same time as the non-contact IC card is held up to the antenna section 7 so as to inform the user that the automatic vending machine 10 has moved into transaction status. Notification of the timing at which to hold up the card may of course be performed by another method (for example providing a separate transaction status lamp and illuminating this transaction status lamp to inform the user of the timing at which to hold up the card).
The user checks the product for which a sale has been confirmed by looking at the lamp of the product selection button 21, and then holds the non-contact IC card up to the antenna section 7. The card is held up continuously until notification as to the completion of payment processing is received from the automatic vending machine 10.
The automatic vending machine 10 reads the authentication code and monetary amount information from the non-contact IC card held up to the antenna section 7 and compares this code and information with the previously stored authentication code and monetary amount information. If the two match, the monetary amount information on the non-contact IC card is updated to the monetary amount which remains after the price of the selected product has been deducted from the read out monetary amount information, whereupon the user is informed as to the completion of payment processing. Then, the corresponding product is dispensed from the product dispensation port 16. Notification to the user of the completion of payment processing is performed, for example, by a beeping sound or by causing a change in the state of illumination of the touch surface of the antenna portion 7 or in the state of illumination of the separately provided transaction status lamp.
In other words, when a user wishes to purchase a product from the automatic vending machine 1, the user must hold the non-contact IC card up to the automatic vending machine 10 twice. The first time is in order to switch the automatic vending machine 10 to a state in which products are available for selection, and the second time is in order to implement payment to the automatic vending machine 10.
Accordingly, when the user simply wishes to check the balance on the non-contact IC card without purchasing a product, the non-contact IC card is held up to the automatic vending machine 10 only once, whereby the balance of the card is displayed on the display section 40. Since the monetary amount information of the card is not updated, the balance on the non-contact IC card can be checked freely.
Further, as was mentioned briefly in the above embodiment, a transaction status lamp for displaying the status of the transaction with the non-contact IC card may be provided. For example, this transaction status lamp is extinguished when the automatic vending machine 10 is in standby mode and illuminated when the non-contact IC card is held up such that the automatic vending machine 10 moves from standby mode to awaiting product selection status. When the product has been selected and the automatic vending machine 10 is waiting for the non-contact IC card to be held up for the purpose of payment, the lamp is caused to flash, thereby informing the user that the automatic vending machine 10 has entered transaction status. Note that instead of the transaction status lamp, light may be emitted from the touch surface of the antenna section 7.
Further, an example using a non-contact IC card was explained in the above embodiment. However, the present invention may also be applied to wireless communications using IrDA (optical communications and the like) installed in a portable communications terminal (a portable telephone or the like).
More specifically, by constructing the antenna section 7 of the automatic vending machine 10 from an IrDA interface comprising an infrared transceiving element or the like, the sales method described in the above embodiment can be applied without further modification to sales using IrDA installed in a portable communications terminal.

The Medium is the Message: March 2009
Twitter Lag Disrupts Virtual Conference Attendance
I spent a good chunk of today 'attending' the Computers in Libraries conference by keeping up with the #cil2009 infostream while listening to TWiT live via ustream. Around 1:40p (in the east) I saw someone in TWiT chat screen a mention that they just felt an earthquake in San Francisco. Indicative of how my information seeking behavior has changed, the first thing I did was perform a Twitter Search. Within 20 seconds of my initial search, which had hundreds of results, over 1500 additional results were available. The number of updates increased rapidly. Around and hour later the infostream from Computers in Libraries virtually stopped. There was initially a 21-minute update gap between 2:46p and 3:07p . I thought maybe it was time for a coffee break at the conference. Eventually, Twitter began to back fill those posts with a delay of 15-minutes. By 4:15p the delay dropped to around 5-minutes. A similar delay was occurring with the #earthquake posts. Until I hear another explanation, I will attribute the delay on the increased number of updates about the earthquake putting a heavy load on the system. It also highlights the reality that we need to be careful about the increased reliance on this single system. A 10-minute update delay in my virtual conference attendance is nothing when compared to the potentially devastating effect of such a system overload if relied upon for real time communication of emergency situations.

It’s Time to Embrace Newer Forms of Scholarly Communication
I decided to write a letter to the promotion and tenure committee after being tenured back in 1997. I had completely forgotten about the letter until I recently uncovered it. In re-reading it, I do not know if I'm more surprised about my insightful comments 12-years ago, or more disappointed that all of the issues I presented are STILL issues. From my letter:" The fact that my web publications are not in the traditional peer-review mold may mean they hold little weight in the tenure process. This perception comes from the fact that no reference them appeared in my tenure review letter..."I certainly understand the importance and significance of peer-reviewed, paper-based publications. The growing number of traditional publications in my dossier should demonstrate this understanding. However, electronic communication is becoming a significant part of the library profession. Just as technology is changing the manner in which we perform our jobs it is also changing how we communicate our theories, ideas, and concepts. As a profession, librarianship needs to adapt to these changes for our scholarly communications to advance..."Finally, I have had discussions with tenured and nontenured library faculty that real a need for an open dialog regarding electronic publications and resources during the tenure and promotion process. I encourage the Appointment, Promotion, and Tenure Committee to begin considering how such a dialog can begin so future candidates will understand how electronic publications will be recognized."Yes, these issues are not only still on the table but are discussed in an article by Sarah Kubik entitled Getting Serious About Research Online appearing in the March 20, 2009 edition of Inside Higher Ed. Kubik is an associate faculty member in visual communications and design at Indiana University-Purdue University Fort Wayne.Kubik makes the argument that while it once made sense to equate print with quality, it’s time to embrace newer forms of scholarly communication as being valid. She points out that even the new Modern Language Association Handbook for Writers of Research Papers no longer recognizes print as the default medium. Issue: academics still care about the output delivery method when it should be all about the content. Important scholarly communications are now being delivered using any number of personal communications conduits including blogs, online journals, e-mail, forum posts, podcasts, Twitter tweets, text messages, or instant messages. Still, academics dismiss this type of content as being less valuable. From Kubik:"If the Tribune Company decides to lessen its production of printed papers because they are too costly, does this mean that they are implying that printed content is less intellectual than Web content? Of course not. But academic circles are not all following suit. Online-only journals often have no impact factor scores, yet the students who use Google will find these journals pop up more frequently than the traditional publications. Perhaps this move toward paper-free publications will speed up the process of submitting an article, waiting for the first review, re-submitting the article with changes, waiting for the next review, (hopefully) getting the article accepted, and then waiting to have the article printed in the journal."For promotion and tenure purposes it is still all about about print. Nothing more needs to be said.Issue: Even when academics do recognize the value of electronic content, there is a tendency to use the lack of a traditional peer-review process to devalue it. Yes, we now have to be able to judge the quality of online content. Yes, a quality filtering process is needed. Yet, I do not think such a process has to be in place before there can be a wider acceptance of scholarly communication in all its form. The mindset that processes for identifying content quality and peer-review have to be in place before the content can be accepted may be the single reason we are no closer to a solution then when I addressed the issue up 12 years ago. At least some institutions, such as Oregon State University, have begun to address both these issues in their criteria: While the kinds of scholarship for faculty across the range of positions at the University will vary, the requirement that the significance of the scholarship be validated and be communicated to publics beyond the University will sustain a uniformly high standard. In some fields, refereed journals and monographs are the traditional media for communication and peer validation; in others, exhibitions and performances. In still other fields, emerging technologies are creating, and will continue to create, entirely new media and methods. In consideration for promotion and tenure, scholarship and creative activity are not merely to be enumerated but are to be carefully, objectively, and rigorously evaluated by professional peers, including ones external to the University.While open to interpretation, one can say that not only does (the other, other) OSU support scholarship in all of its possible forms, but that scholarship should be evaluated in the context of the communication method. More importantly, scholarship must be "communicated in appropriate ways so as to have impact on or significance for publics beyond the University, or for the discipline itself." I am now the Chair of the P&T Committee I sent my letter to 12-years ago. I have found, however, that getting a dialog going is much easier said then done. I now realize the foundation of the culture of scholarship lies at the full professor level. Still, I was able to get a dialog moving by arranging the first ever meeting between P&T and the full professors. Hopefully, changes will not take another 12 years. Sphere: Related Content

Transitioning to the Digital Dossier
The past few years have been filled with numerous analog to digital transitions. Why not propose another?Each year I am responsible for generating a Faculty Annual Report (FAR). The FAR is essentially a core dossier that contains narrative focusing on my activities over the past year. In 1994, my FAR was generated by photo copying documents from one year to the next and adding new items in with a typewriter (!). The image on the right is my first FAR. Word processing templates were phased in a few years later which allowed me to cut and paste content electronically. My dossier and associated CV are used as documentation of my activities for the purposes of promotion and tenure review. More specifically, they provide critical information for external peer-reviewers. While the dossier I create is technically digital, the processes used to communicate and distribute the document treat it as if it were analog. External reviewers receive a print dossier along with printed copies of scholarly materials via snail mail. Since the dossier is a flat text file, even if sent has an attachment the reviewer still needs to cut and paste URLs. With all the connectivity to content that we now have, academia really needs to rethink the dossier paradigm and transition it from analog to digital. I speculate that this transition WILL happen in the next few years anyway, why shouldn't academic librarians be the first? With a digital dossier:The only information that would be sent to an external reviewer would be a single URL. I think I'm making a reasonable assumption here that MOST academic librarians are online and would prefer digital rather than have a stack of paper. The reviewers could generate the paper versions, if that is the format they prefer. All network-based content (e.g. web sites, blogs) would be hyperlinked and navigated to though the digital dossier. This would allow certain scholarly communications to be viewed and interacted with in their native formats (side bar: I once had an interactive web site printed off and sent to external reviewers). Traditional content would be made accessible through the use of any combination of OpenURL / Link Resolvers / DOI. Most academic librarians have online access to a growing amount of published literature. Why print content off when it can be linked?Content in open access publications or stored in institutional repositories could also be linked. Presentation materials stored on services such as SlideShare could also be linked. Sure, the evaluation of monographs would be a problem - in the short term. Over the past few years, Ohio State has been developing an expertise system called OSU:Pro. Your university may have built a similar system to store and build dossiers. The wonderful thing about OSU:Pro, and other expertise solutions, are their potential to create a digital dossier. We aren't there - yet. All the materials are still printed off and sent through the mail. The argument I hear is that paper is provided for the convenience of the reviewer. They can throw it in their briefcase and take it with them. I think the ubiquity of the Internet pretty much cancels out that argument these days. Serving as an external evaluator takes a good deal of time. I know I would be more willing to serve if it were easier to access all the supporting documentation online. However, the barriers to the digital dossier are primarily of a cultural, historical, and work flow nature - not technical. Sphere: Related Content

Repurposing 23 Things for Health Sciences Educators?!
"23 Things" is a library staff development learning concept centered on social collaboration tools. It was conceived by Helene Blowers in 2006, and libraries and library organizations of all sizes and types have adapted the idea for their own staff. The focus of the program is a hands-on, self-directed, and innovative way to introduce staff, volunteers, trustees, and others to Web 2.0 tools like blogs and wikis.This afternoon I 'attended' a 2-hour 23 Things Summit that had over 250 participants. The summit consisted of 'presentations' from several successful programs who shared their best practices and lessons learned. I am not going to spend any more time on the summit since you can revisit it here. (Note: the number of attendees Twittering the event made the summit a trending topic on Twittersearch and Twittergrid, )I think we now have enough anecdotal and survey evidence to say that the program is a success in the library community. Both the technical knowledge and technology learning behaviors of participants does change by the end of the program. Great job to all!As an academic librarian, however, I have noticed that the same concerns and issues that lead to he development of 23 Things within the library community also exist in colleges and departments across our campus. Colleges and departments are being pressured more and more to include social and Web 2.0 technologies into their educational experiences. In fact, I have a introductory meeting tomorrow to discuss a 'social networking strategy' for our college of medicine.My first response to the meeting request that I received last week was essentially "it is great to have a strategy, but it will not be effective if the faculty don't understand or know how to use the tools. We need to come up with a way to get them engaged."About 90 minutes into the summit a light bulb went off. It was was an exciting 'AHA' moment.What I will be discussing at the meeting tomorrow is the idea of '23 Things for Health Sciences Educators.' It will essentially be a re-purposing of the 23 Things concept for the continuing education of health sciences faculty. What's that? Sure, library staff can participate as well!The more I think about it I think this is an idea worth pursuing grant funds for. I also felt that idea is the way to go once I realized something. The audience I am looking at is the health sciences. The program is called 23 Things. Humans have 23 pairs of chromosomes. I see the logo now, a double helix. With such a neat theme the program would have to be successful!If this is such a good idea, why am I telling you and giving away my great idea? Perhaps, it is to find some possible collaborators to move this idea to a state, NLM midwest region, or national initiative? At the very least, it is to document the idea...

The River of Doubt: Theodore Roosevelt's Darkest Journeyby Candice Millard [B R67m]After Theodore Roosevelt failed in his last attempt at the Presidency, he was talked into an expedition on a South American river that many doubted ever existed. Joined by his son Kermit, several naturalists from noted geographic societies, a priest, and a failed Arctic explorer, they set out on an ill planned venture in the unknown rain forest. Plagued by insects, Indians, fever, and shortage of supplies, Roosevelt contracted a serious illness that almost drove him to suicide. After surviving the debacle of the expedition, he returned home only to be ridiculed and doubted about his extraordinary accomplishment. For lovers of historic adventure and suspense. -- recommended by Rayma S. -- South Branch Library[ Publisher's page for River of Doubt ] [ Reading Group Guide for River of Doubt ]Have you read this one?

There are some great series that will be getting new installments early in the 2008, and a few that got their newest addition late in 2007. Here are some of our favorites:“The Winter Rose”, by Jennifer Donnelly: Set in 1900 London, the second volume in Donnelly’s “Tea Rose” trilogy tells the story of India Selwyn-Jones. Though a noblewoman by birth, India has recently graduated from the London Women’s Medical College. Rather than set up her practice in fashionable Harley street, she heads to the dangerous streets of the East End, where she feels she will be truly needed. When one of London’s most notorious gangsters, Sid Malone, comes to her for treatment, India must face her growing feelings for a man who represents everything she detests. (Due out January 8)“Why Mermaids Sing”, by C. S. Harris: It’s another in the new and very popular Sebastian St. Cyr mystery series, set in Regency England. This time, Sebastian must find a serial killer who is doing in the sons of some of England’s most powerful families. These crimes were mentioned towards the end of Harris’ last St. Cyr novel, and solving them will no doubt prove to be a daunting and dangerous task for the darkly charming young viscount. (Out November, 2007)“The Queen of Bedlam”, by Robert McCammon: The long-anticipated follow-up to McCammon’s much-loved “Speaks the Nightbird” reunites readers with law clerk Matthew Corbett, now living in New York, and working for a new magistrate. This book promises to be as engrossing a read as “Nightbird”, as Matthew becomes embroiled in the hunt for a serial killer that the press has dubbed, “The Masker”. Only out since October of 2007, it’s already showing up on some “Best of the Year” lists. (Out October, 2007)“Silent in the Sanctuary”, by Deanna Raybourn: Raybourn made a smashing debut last year with her complex, historically evocative mystery, “Silent in the Grave”. Now, she gives us another tale of Lady Julia Grey and her reluctant partner in crime-solving, Nicholas Brisbane. This one has murder, jewel thieves, and an ever-increasing attraction between the two main characters. It can’t come out soon enough for Raybourn’s many fans. (Due out January 1)“Fire Study”, by Maria V. Snyder: The next book in the “Study” series finds the magically gifted Yelena trying to stop an overly-ambitious clan from creating a magician who can control fire. Wars threaten, and danger lurks around every corner as Snyder’s smart and stalwart heroine once more tries to save her world. (Due out March 1)“The Seduction of the Crimson Rose”, by Lauren Willig: Readers who have been avidly following Willig’s time-hopping chick-lit series will rejoice at the release of yet another installment. This time, it’s up to dark-haired socialite Mary Alsworthy and the mysterious Lord Vaughan to save England from the evil plots of the Black Tulip and his spies. Adventure and romance are sure to ensue, both in the nineteenth and the twenty-first century, where literary scholar Eloise Kelly may just finally get a date with hunky Brit Collin Selwick. (Due out January 28.)
Silver Bells: A Holiday Taleby Luann RiceA touching holiday romance with a bit of a paranormal twist. Christopher Byrne, Nova Scotia Christmas tree farmer, deals with the disappearance of his teenaged son, Danny, during their annual selling trip to New York City. Librarian Catherine Tierney mourns the loss of her husband during a previous Christmas season. Together, with the help of their friends and the timely assistance of the holidays, they can help each other come to terms with their losses and concerns to find a hope for the brighter future. This book was adapted into a very nice Hallmark Hall of Fame production for television in 2005, in which quite a bit of the supporting plot was altered, but actually improved on the storyline.

Spineless Wonders: Strange Tales From the Invertebrate Worldby Richard Conniff [592 Con]They're weird. They're creepy. They have disturbing personal habits, and they're all around us. They're invertebrates, and we share our world with them, or maybe they just share theirs with us! Conniff takes us up close and personal with such seemingly common critters as the housefly, the leech and the ant. You will never look at a beetle in quite the same way again after reading this, and you may have new respect for the hagfish and the tarantula. No, these beings are not like us, but they have lives that are just as complex and full of drama.

The 47th Samuraiby Stephen HunterThe newest thriller in the Bob Lee Swagger series is highly recommended to those who like their heroes with a highly developed sense of duty and honor. In 47th Samurai, Swagger is asked to return a sword his father had taken from a Japanese soldier in a battle at Iwo Jima. Swagger makes a special trip to Japan to return the sword and shortly after discovers that the sword has been stolen and the family brutally murdered. Bob Lee begins a quest for atonement and along the way becomes immersed in Japanese organized crime, history, and culture. If you like high-action, all-out thrillers you'll love Stephen Hunter and the Swagger novels. If you shy away from graphic fight sequences, this may not be the novel for you. While the action is intense, the characters are well-developed and the plot tightly researched. -- recommended by Sean S. -- Eiseley Branch Library[ Publisher's page for Stephen Hunter ] [ The Unofficial Stephen Hunter web site ]Have you read this one?

A Test of Willsby Charles ToddThis is a classic British police procedural with several twists. The setting is Upper Streetham, a small village in Warwickshire, England. The time is 1919, the world still reeling from the Great War. The detective is Scotland Yard Inspector Ian Rutledge, recently returned to police duty from the bloody battlefields of World War I. The victim is Colonel Harris, a career soldier, also recently returned from the war to his estate outside Upper Streetham, where he lived with his ward, Lettice Wood. Miss Wood is recently engaged to Captain Wilton, a young soldier back from the war, also. As you might suspect, World War I and its aftermath feature prominently in this mystery. A woman in the village continues to be shunned because she fell in love with a German prisoner of war detained in the Upper Streetham during the war. Hickam, the town drunk, who suffers from shell shock, was the last person to see Colonel Harris alive. And our Inspector Rutledge, also suffering from shell shock, is dealing with his first murder case since his return to police duty, and his own very personal nightmares. As a captain in the army, Rutledge was forced to order the execution of a young soldier for refusing Rutledge's command to fight. This young soldier, Hamish MacLeod, haunts Rutledge, speaking to him in a voice that only Rutledge can hear. The central question of this mystery is who would want to kill Colonel Harris, a well-liked man for the short amount of time he actually spent in Upper Streetham in between his numerous military postings?

The last few days have seen two newsworthy announcements in the media of interest to fans of fantasy fiction.First, the Bad News:Author Terry Pratchett, known for the immensely popular Discworld series (and Good Omens in partnership with Neil Gaiman), announced through artist friend Paul Kidby's website that he has been diagnosed with a rare form of early onset Alzheimer's Disease. Click on the BBC news article for more information.And the Good News:Following the death of James Oliver Rigney Jr., who wrote fantasy under the pseudonym Robert Jordan, there was uncertainty as to whether the unfinished 10th and final volume in Jordan's hugely successful Wheel of Time series would ever see the light of day. Jordan's publisher announced on December 7th that Nebraska's own Brandon Sanderson has been tapped to finish Jordan's final book. See the full article on publisher Tor's web site!

Speaks the Nightbirdby Robert R. McCammonOne of the fiction best-sellers this winter is bound to be the new book, The Queen of Bedlam, featuring the character Matthew Corbett. Matthew made his first appearance, however, in this gripping, highly entertaining novel of witchcraft and intrigue set in a small Colonial Carolina town. The year is 1699, and Matthew is acting as law clerk for a magistrate who has been called upon to hear the case of a woman suspected of witchcraft. The two men run into trouble almost immediately, and the path of their investigation never does run smoothly. There's a lot going on behind the scenes in the settlement of Fount Royal, and no one is who he or she seems to be. Pirates, Spanish gold, Satanic manifestations and more figure into this suspenseful and detailed story. Is the lovely Rachel Howarth guilty of trafficking with the Devil, or is she the victim of those who will gain by her death? That's the question that Matthew sets out to answer, and his search takes him down a twisting, turning path of deceit and death. Prepare to stay up late reading this one, and don't forget the sequel, which is getting great reviews. -- recommended by Lisa V. -- Bennett Martin Public Library/Reference[ Speaks the Night Bird page on the official Robert McCammon web site ]Have you read this one?

A Fatal Graceby Louise Penny"A stupid, vapid and vindictive woman" is how one of the residents of Three Pines described CC de Poitiers. Chief Inspector Gamache and his team from the Sûreté du Quebec had trouble finding anyone in the tiny village that had a good word to say about CC. As a result, their suspect list was long. Her henpecked husband, her spineless lover and any of the eccentric residents. Chief Inspector Armand Gamache, who we first met in Still Life, came back the village of Three Pines in southern Quebec to find CC's murderer. Gamache renews his acquaintance with the artist couple that eke out a living doing what they love, a poet fixated on death and the gay couple who run a B&B and a bistro as he investigates the latest crime. It was Boxing Day. The villagers met at the legion hall for a community breakfast. Then they headed out to the frozen lake for the annual curling tournament. While everyone cheered the players CC collapsed on the ice. The locals thought it was a heart attack and rushed her to the hospital. The doctor realized that CC had been electrocuted and contacted the Sûreté du Quebec. Gamache and his team have to determine how a woman can be electrocuted while sitting on a frozen lake with a small group watching the annual curling tournament. No one else in the group even received a small electrical jolt, let alone one big enough to kill them. The rest of the villagers were sitting in stands on shore and none of them left their seats. How could someone have killed her? -- recommended by Donna G. -- Loren Corey Eiseley and Bess Dodson Walt Branch Libraries[ Fatal Grace page on the official Louise Penny web site ]Have you read this one?

Terrain | WARGAMING MISCELLANY
Posted: October 5, 2017 | Author: Robert (Bob) Cordery | Filed under: Terrain | 10 Comments
So why bother to paint the baseboard … and why choose that colour?
I chose to paint the baseboard so that I could use it ‘as is’ if I wanted to, but the main reason was that by a bit of careful placing, I could create trenches that were actually below the level of the rest of the terrain.
As to the choice of colour … well it seemed to be the best choice for a neutral colour that would go with both the green and sand-coloured terrain that I had painted.

The second thing was that hills are easier to model with Heroscape than they are with Hexon II. They may end up looking like ‘old school’ stepped hills, but the figures don’t slide off them and they can be made to be more rugged, with lots of different levels being possible.

The Quackenbush Photo Perspective: Some People Can Be So Ridiculous
Wow, what a day Al. It just amazes me how people can be, I mean it's not that hard, just commen sence. but I guess a lot of people just lack that.My family just started volunteering at the SPCALA by El Dorado Nature Center. My daughter is working on a girl scout project for her gold award and putting together care packages for family that adopt pets. So my daughter and I did a couple of hours this Sunday with the cats, as we can't work with dogs until we take the HEAL class.
February 25, 2008 at 7:55:00 AM PST
Awesome, Jim! Tell your daughter that is very cool. I always enjoy hearing how people give back like that. That is great that your family is doing it all together.Yes, I agree. common sense seems to have skipped some families. It amazes me how some people can be.Maybe we can do coffee in a couple weeks. I am thinking of heading to Simi Valley on Marc 15th for a trail walk/photo outing with some other people. Let me know if you might be interested in going.
February 25, 2008 at 1:57:00 PM PST
You are very passionate about our care center. ;) I love that you are, though!I cannot believe the people who wanted to put "J" in boarding until they came back from their trip. And leave the gate open all the time? Unreal.It's no wonder why there are so many animals in shelters. I'm sure when people have had it, they'd rather get rid of them instead of train them. I hate that some people think that animals are 'disposable' or something "fun" to have around until they are bored. Ugh. :( I mean, look at us, we were going to adopt Lollipop and then we told the shelter that we didn't think it would be fair because we go out of town a lot. And we're not even in the military where we HAVE to move a lot. Why can't others think that way?! Shelter stories never cease to amaze me. It's sad.
February 25, 2008 at 2:21:00 PM PST
I'd like to meet with you for the trail walk / photo outing but I have All-City Finals for Long Beach Middle School Girls Track that day. We still need to meet for coffee though.

Mitchell Langbert's Blog: Term Paper Pre-submission Checklist
Term Paper Pre-submission Checklist
I have been trying to help my students overcome the grammatical deficit that ensues twelve years in the New York City school system. I made up a checklist and gave it to them. I also sent around a copy to my colleagues at Brooklyn College in case they want to post it:
I’ve been working on ways to encourage the students to write better. I came up with the idea of giving them a term paper pre-submission checklist to help them go over their grammar before submitting their papers. I’ve been posting it on the Blackboard announcements page. Feel free to use it if you think it will help.
Before you hand in a paper, check the following points:
1. Avoid unnecessary or extraneous words like "very" and "really." Avoid using the first person ("in my opinion").
2. Check that the verb tense in each paragraph does not change unless you have a specific reason.
3. If necessary, check the verb tense that you are using against the discussion on English Page: http://www.englishpage.com/verbpage/verbtenseintro.html .
4. Only words that require capitalization should be capitalized. Check your paper against the capitalization rules on Grammarbook.com: http://www.grammarbook.com/punctuation/capital.asp .
5. Check your paper to make sure that restrictive phrases and clauses are not preceded or followed by commas and that non-restrictive phrases and clauses are preceded and followed by commas. To understand the difference between restrictive and non-restrictive clauses, read these Websites: http://gtotd.blogspot.com/2007/08/set-off-non-restrictive-phrases-or.html and http://library.cn.edu/wacn/pdfs/clausetry.pdf .
5. Do not use a comma to separate the subject of the sentence from the verb. Do not use a comma to separate a dependent or subordinate clause that ends a sentence unless it contrasts with or contradicts the meaning of the rest of the sentence or is non-restrictive. When you inject non-essential remarks into a sentence, enclose them in commas: , in his view, ; , as she remarked, .
6. Check your sentence for independent clauses, and if two or more are in a sentence, punctuate the linkage or linkages correctly. An independent clause can be a sentence in its own right. If there is more than one independent clause, then there are four potential options for correct punctuation:
An example of a run-on sentence (a sentence that lacks proper linkage of independent clauses) is as follows:
All four are grammatically correct from a technical standpoint. Which is the most effective? I say (4). Yet, students insist on long sentences. One time, I broke one into six separate sentences.
I have copied and saved your informative article. It's been a LONG time since I took English grammar. LOL!
You must cringe every time I send out information!

Posted by Bj Morris at 3:14 PM No comments:
Paws Awhile is petite (~800 square feet), therefore it was dwarfed by the giant sofa that came with the unit.
We needed a smaller sofa to make the space seem larger. We wanted a sleeper sofa in case our number of guests exceeded the capacity of the sleeping surfaces. We searched high and low for just the right sofa at just the right price. You may remember from a previous post that I found one locally in Fernandina Beach for $2500 which was out of my price range.
Jennifer Convertibles in Virginia had almost the identical sofa for $399.99.
The drawback is that Jennifer would not ship to Fernandina Beach or even Atlanta. They wouldn't even let us order the sofa over the phone, so... ROAD TRIP!!!
We took a Saturnday morning flight to Washington, DC and took their marvelous public transportation to the Jennifer Convertibles store in Bailey's Crossroads, Virginia. We bought the sofa and scheduled a date to pick it up at their warehouse. The warehouse was only open for pick-ups on Tuesdays after 1PM.
We looked into options for transporting the sofa and found most options to be too costly so we finally settled on renting an Alamo minivan. Apparently Alamo was interested in moving some minivans to Florida for the winter because our rate was $38/day with no drop charge! We weren't sure whether the sofa would fit, but with fingers crossed, we flew back to DCA on Tuesday and picked up our minivan. We folded down all of the seats in the Alamo parking lot and decided our plan was going to work.
We got to the warehouse early but they wouldn't give us the sofa so we had lunch at a nearby Wendy's and went back at 1PM on the dot. The sofa fit perfectly in the back of the van. It looked a little like a coffin back there.
The 10 hour drive was pretty uneventful. We listened to a book and before we knew it, we were pulling into Sand Dollar Villas just before midnight. Then came the challenge of getting the sofa up to our unit. We were very thankful that our complex has an elevator. I don't think we could have carried it up the stairs. Sliding the box worked well! We deposited the sofa just inside the door and went to bed.
After checking flights, we had decided that if we wanted to get home the next day, we would need to be on the 5:30AM flight, meaning a 3:45AM wake up call.
A few weeks later, I flew back down to unbox and assemble the sofa. I'm guessing if we had bought the $2500 sofa it would have been delivered, assembled and set up.
There were great instructions in the box though, so I got it assembled pretty quickly.
Now we are ready for guests! (Tony says we would only put people we don't like on the sofa-bed, but we had this same sofa-bed in our motorhome and WE slept on it.)
The sofa is even comfortable to curl up on for an afternoon nap!
We thought we would have to recruit our friend with a truck to haul the old sofa off, but we found that we could schedule a pick up from the local charity, Barnabas.
The sofa only came in two colors, neither of them very beachy, so I bought some Tommy Bahama fabric and started the re-upholstery job.
I have only gotten the cushions covered so far, but I am really liking the look! The fabric is indoor-outdoor so hopefully it will resist stains from suntan lotion, dog drool and the like!
That's it for the so far sofa... so far... stay tuned!

The Elliotts in Va: May 2009
It has been pointed out to me that I haven't written much lately. We've been very busy with the end of term and me getting myself to the gym on a regular basis. We've also been trying to sell my wonderful Jeep Grand Cherokee. I love it but we went the minivan route and it was time for the Jeep to find a new home. We think we've sold it and the buyers have told us they'll be over tomorrow evening to pick it up.The boys are excited about summer camp starting tomorrow and can't wait to have some fun on the farm. While the boys are at camp I plan to keep up my gym visits and although I find it hard to walk up stairs without taking a sharp intake of breath(!) I'm really trying to stay committed to my "get fit and healthy" routine. Grant and I have even been playing squash together and although he's better than me we both run around lots.We're also very lucky to have Laura visiting us at the moment. Laura is Grant's neice and the boys love her. She is staying for a few months...maybe longer, maybe shorter...depending on what opportunities arise, but we're enjoying the extra help and company while she is here.I'll have to start taking photos because I prefer posts with matching photos...perhaps one or two at summer camp tomorrow so watch out for more posts coming soon....
This is the kind of day we've had ........silly boys and silly faces....
Cameron really seems to have a crush on a girl at school. I think it will be fun to remember this moment many years from now when he's with a serious girlfriend or perhaps at his wedding? He told me today that his friend, Sarisha, was the nicest girl to look at in his class. Isn't that lovely? He likes to play princes and princesses with her and their other friends during their playtime.The good news is that she seems to like him too. Earlier this week she rushed up to say hello to him as he arrived at the classroom. "Want to play princes and princesses today?" she asked eagerly..."oh well, sure, I guess" said Cameron...as if he hadn't been talking about it in the car the whole way to school! Playing it cool already Mr. Cameron!Anyway, it is all very sweet and innocent and I think they've just reached an age where they realise they are building friendships of choice. Cameron and I talked about kids he likes playing with at school and other kids who he'd rather not play with...he's growing up so fast! Posted by
haircuts happened yesterday...boys looking older .. how is it that a haircut on my little boys makes them look older and I want a haircut to make me look younger?
Seriously. The people who think up these places need a good smack around the head. My kids loved it of course. Even though we just went on Tuesday night for our first ever visit all I've heard since we were there is "can we go to C-E-C tonight...pllleeeaaaseee". Then I say no..it is only for a treat... you can't go every day. Then I hear five minutes later "are we going to C-E-C tomorrow?" I might regret taking them there!Here are a few photos of the fun...Anyway, it could have been worse. It was quiet and the boys had a wonderful time. Really, they loved it. Cameron said to me at night.. "I love C-E-C but I love you more mummy"....oh thank goodness!
Granny Tina started me gardening. So even though she's back home I decided to go out there today and do some weeding and use some weed killer. I'd only be out there about 15 mins when I saw this big snake - yikes! It's a garter snake (thank you internet) and its about 2 feet long. It completely creeped me out and now I don't want to go back in there. Plus, it is raining again.
granny in scotland
Granny Tina is back in Scotland safe and sound. We miss you Granny!Here is Granny with the boys in Meadowlark before all the rain started. Will it ever stop?
It might be the last year that trains are cool for Cameron. We drove to Baltimore this afternoon to see the B&O Railroad and their Day Out with Thomas. Jamie and Cameron were both really excited about seeing Thomas the Tank Engine and riding on a train. Jamie was so excited the first time he spotted Thomas coming into the station.Unusually, it has been pouring with rain so we needed new rain coats for the boys so they didn't get too wet. Matching coats...they'll kill me when they're older!The B&O museum was great. There were some old trains to climb on and the restored roundhouse train shed was beautiful. But the best part of the day was a short train ride on Thomas. Cameron, Jamie, Granny and I had a great day out. Thomas is a really useful engine.
Jamie and Cameron love to be superheroes. Jamie was given a Batman costume for his birthday - thanks to Anna and family! - you can see how much he's loving dressing up. | [

Effort to Deliciousness: TWD: Cran-Apple Crisp
That's a lovely dish you've used. I can't wait to make the crisp. I'm glad it was enjoyed!
I hear you on the structure. I missed TWD last week and almost skipped again this week due to poor planning. If we'd had to make the cake this week it simply wouldn't have happened for me! I'm really looking forward to the crisp, especially since it's an easy one :) Yours looks terrific!Eloise is so gorgeous! Glad you guys had fun at the gala.
Okay, I've seen you walk Eloise before and I seriously can't believe that you managed to hold onto that glass of wine while holding onto your weim on a leash with the other hand.
Eloise looks adorable for the parade! I also wanted to follow the regular schedule, but I'm glad the crisps turned out so well! It would have been a double blow if not.
My dad actually asked for ice cream to go with his crisp - but I didn't have any!I didn't know Eloise was a rescue dog - and congrats to her for being in the parade!
A beautiful red dish with beautiful red cranberries. Perfect!! I am so looking forward to making this next week. I will definitely look for some nice tart/sweet apples for this one.Beautiful dog!
Your crisp looks great. I'm looking forward to making this one!Your dog is beautiful. How nice to take her and have her be in the parade!
The crisp looks great, especially the serving with ice cream. Yum!
@Jo Ann: You're right, we "accidentally" grabbed a better-behaved weim.
LOL, your weimeriner event sounds a lot like going out in public with young children. Anyway, your crisp looks delish! Thanks for the hints on pan size and time for a half-batch. I'm going to downsize this one too.
love your dish - great job
I can't wait to make this...I think I'm making it tonight. Gorgeous dog!
You're smarter than I am. I'm still struggling through the chocolate chestnut cake and it's Thursday! I like your idea of making half the recipe for the crisp, and after seeing yours, I can't wait to try it!
My Australian Shepherd was in a rescue parade one time and she got a huge ribbon (they all did) - I had such a great time hanging that up at home even if she didn't actually do anything for it!That pie plate is so pretty and the crisp looks quite inviting and delicious. We loved this crisp, but I subbed pecans in the topping for the coconut. My baking dish was so shallow, my quarter recipe looked huge. My hubs said "I can't eat that much" - amazing how that portion control works. I breathed a sigh of relief about the flexibility of TWD in November - the cake would have done me in last week!But I'm still trying to contain my astonishment that you ONLY HAVE ONE MORE TWD RECIPE until you're caught up!
Your crisp looks amazing! I am making this one for Thanksgiving dessert! Love your dog!
Your crisp looks delicious - one big one was a good idea. Eloise is adorable!!
I second the need for structure! This is a BUSY time of year!I must admit, I look forward to pictures of Eloise more than I do the goodies ;)She's a doll!!
Your cran-apple crips look delicious - especially with ice cream! I LOVED this recipe, didn't know I would love baked cranberries as much as I do now! Eloise looks soo playful and cute with her holiday decorations! =) | [

Bali Villa Suluban Cliff Oceanfront : Memorable vacation at Suluban Cliff Bali Villa
Guest Review - stayed in March 2012, from Singapore
"We had a thoroughly enjoyable vacation at Suluban Cliff Villa, thanks to your arrangements, the lovely villa staff, and the absolutely gorgeous villa.
Two days into our return we are still dreaming about the wonderful moments spent at the villa, and our friends have gone absolutely gaga over the photographs we shared. It was one of those truly memorable vacations that we will be reminiscing for a long time.
Please convey our appreciation to Made, Chef (lovely food!), and the girls for taking good care of us – with the exception of the water disruption hiccup on the first day, and some language barrier now and then, the overall experience was top-notch and we only wish we could have stayed longer.
We will be sure to share this gem of a place with our families and friends, and look forward to returning to Suluban Cliff one day"

Maxime Lestienne - Wikipedia
Lestienne playing for Rubin in 2016
‡ National team caps and goals correct as of 2 March 2014
Maxime Lestienne (French pronunciation: [maksim lɛstjɛn], (born 17 June 1992) is a Belgian professional footballer who plays as a winger for Rubin Kazan.
1.1 Mouscron
1.3.2 Loan to PSV
Lestienne came up through the youth ranks at Royal Excelsior Mouscron. At the time of his debut in the senior squad on 20 December 2008, Mouscron was competing in the Belgian First Division. Lestienne came on as a substitute for Asanda Sishuba in the 80th minute of a 5–1 home victory against Club Brugge.[1]
After the bankruptcy of Mouscron in 2009, Lestienne became available on a free transfer. Despite interest from English side Everton and Dutch side PSV Eindhoven,[2] Lestienne eventually signed a contract with Club Brugge on 6 January 2010.
Lestienne transferred to Al-Arabi in the summer of 2014.
Lestienne was loaned out to Genoa until the end of the 2014-15 season almost immediately after signing for Qatari side Al-Arabi.
Loan to PSV[edit]
From July 12, 2015, Lestienne was loaned out to PSV Eindhoven until the end of the 2015-16 season. PSV decided not to exercise its option to buy the player at the end of the loan spell.
On 5 July 2016, he moved to Russian club FC Rubin Kazan.[3]
Lestienne was called up to the Belgium national football team for the friendly against USA in May 2013, but did not play. He has appeared nine times for the Belgium U21 team and scored once, when he converted a penalty in the 53rd minute in a 2015 UEFA European Under-21 Football Championship qualification Group 9 game with Cyprus U21 won by Belgium 2-0.[4]

Metro Style Panorama Control For WPF | Sacha's Blog Of Programmaticalness
Metro Style Panorama Control For WPF The other day as part of a bigger article I am working on I wanted a control something like the Metro (Win8/Metro) UI, but for WPF. I had a look around and there weren’t that many out there, and the ones that were out there seems to scroll in weird and unfamiliar ways. So I decided to write my own, now its not exactly the same as the Windows8 one, but it does offer these features
Templating ability via DataTemplates (in your own code…Bonus) Its a lookless control, as such template/style it it as you see fit Its easy to use 2 forms of scrolling, either snapback or using friction to current mouse co-ordinates | [

April | 2014 | RummyFight to iOS and Android
Well, I’ve now managed to get the app to start again, however it dies as soon as I touch it. Probably something easy to fix once I find out what’s happening. Anyway, this is an indicator of two things:
1. I will be able to get the app to work on Cocos2D v3.0 as well as on the new XCode
2. There will be a need for LOTS of testing of the app before it can be released again.
But that’s just something I will have to live with.
Too bad I also have two other great app-ideas I would like to create that will have to wait until I’m done with RummyFight. I do think those two ideas would be really fun to play but there are simply not enough time.
Finally, RummyFight for iOS finally compiles again in XCode. A huge amount of code has been replaced or adjusted for it to be able to compile with the latest Cocos2D in the latest XCode development enviroment.
But now it finally compiles without errors again.
However, the app does not work at all.
Version 2.0 (And 2.01) released for Android | [

Photographer: Kevin Lee/NewsmakersFacebookTwitterEmailPrintShareTechUber Isn't Going to Conquer the WorldJustin Fox is a Bloomberg View columnist. He was the editorial director of Harvard Business Review and wrote for Time, Fortune and American Banker. He is the author of “The Myth of the Rational Market.” Read More.@foxjustJune 29, 2016 11:04 AM EDTa | AByJustin FoxTravis Kalanick takes on the world one city at a time. “My company, we’re all about serving cities,” Uber’s co-founder and chief executive said Sunday. “We don’t have the macro view; we are in cities,” he added the next day. A little while later he mused, “People live differently in different cities.”Kalanick said these things at a World Economic Forum meeting in Tianjin, one of the 60 Chinese cities where Uber now offers rides. To me, they sounded like an acknowledgement that the business of driving people around is for the most part metropolitan, not national or global. Which is interesting to hear from the CEO of a company that has tapped investors for up to $15 billion to finance a breakneck global expansion.“These markets are contestable, and they’re contestable city-by-city,” Arun Sundararajan, a professor at New York University’s Stern School of Business, told me a few weeks ago. “There are network effects that are local to a particular market, but these are not like Facebook’s network effects. They don’t give you a multiyear advantage.”Network effects are generated when a service becomes more valuable as more people use it. They can give huge competitive advantages to successful builders of networks, so huge that some such businesses appear to be natural monopolies.In the ride-hailing business, more customers in a city lead more drivers to start offering their services. More drivers bring shorter wait times, which lure in more customers, who lure in more drivers -- and the virtuous cycle continues. That’s the network effect, which seemingly gives a huge advantage to the ride-hailing company that builds the leading network in a city.There’s only limited spillover from city to city, though. Yes, tourists and business travelers are going to be more likely to use a ride-hailing service that’s in lots of cities, but in most places they’re just a small part of the overall customer base.National borders can add another barrier. After a visit to a tech company on the north side of Beijing Tuesday, I wanted to use Uber to get back to my hotel -- the app showed only a two-minute wait for a car -- but my host advised against it. Uber drivers in China always call to discuss exactly where you are, she said, and because my mobile number was foreign she didn’t know what would happen. Chinese market leader Didi -- which started as a taxi-hailing app but expanded into private cars in response to Uber -- was better anyway, she added, then used it to order me a taxi that turned out to be already waiting on the street outside in hopes that someone would need a ride.On a visit to yet another tech company on the north side of Beijing today I learned of one more hurdle faced in China by Uber and by Didi’s private-car service. For business travelers in the U.S., the digital receipt provided by a ride-hailing service is adequate for claiming expense reimbursement -- and unlike a paper receipt, it’s really hard to lose. In China, though, businesses can’t get a tax deduction for employee expenses without an official paper “fapiao” invoice. Taxi meters usually print them out automatically. If you pay a non-taxi driver through Didi or Uber, you have to request that the fapiao be mailed to you. Which is kind of a pain.So driving-for-hire is a quirky business, with lots of differences between cities and between nations. And even when a ride-hailing service achieves a dominant position in one city, with all the attendant network effects, it’s still not invulnerable. That’s partly because, for reasons both regulatory and technological, it’s generally pretty easy for drivers and customers to toggle among multiple apps.In New York City, where Uber is the market leader among ride-hailing services (although taxis still provide far more rides), Sundararajan is intrigued by a new competitor called Juno, which not only charges much lower commissions than Uber but plans to start giving equity in the company to regular drivers. “It has identified that one of Uber’s weaknesses is how its drivers perceive it,” Sundararajan said, “and it’s leveraging that as its positioning: we are for the drivers.” He added:Will someone else come along that will raise the kind of capital that Uber did and be able to beat them in every market? Probably not. But I can certainly see high-revenue pockets being taken on by competitors in a way that will drive down margins.There are some good things about being the global No. 1. It brings scale advantages in terms of advertising, technological infrastructure and analytics. Uber’s experience in building up networks in city after city has to count for something too. Also, as Andrew Ross Sorkin speculated in the New York Times last week:Every time Uber raises another $1 billion, venture capital investors and others may find it less attractive to back one of Uber’s many rivals: Didi Chuxing, Lyft, Gett, Halo, Juno. In other words, Uber’s fund-raising efforts have seemingly become part of the contest: It’s not just a rivalry over customers and drivers; it’s a war of attrition, a mad scramble to starve the competition of cash.Still, overall, I’m not getting the sense that this new business of ordering up rides with our smartphones is inevitably tending toward global monopoly. As a customer, I find this encouraging. If I were an investor in Uber, though --- particularly a recent investor -- it might make me a little queasy.This was in a part of the interview I did with him early this month that we edited out of the published version. There’s a reddit thread about this. This column does not necessarily reflect the opinion of the editorial board or Bloomberg LP and its owners.To contact the author of this story: Justin Fox at [email protected] contact the editor responsible for this story: Susan Warren at [email protected] Fox is a Bloomberg View columnist.

May | 2011 | Welcome To Tornado Quest
Central OK Supercell Of 22 April 2011
By Tornado Quest on 29/05/2011 | Leave a comment
During the afternoon and evening of 22 April 2011, a number of severe weather events occurred across OK to KY. An overview of the days events from the Storm Prediction Center can be found here.
One supercell that produced a tornado in Garvin county was not exhibiting the typical supercell structure on radar. In spite of its structure, it did display a pronounced hook echo.
The Base Reflectivity image show above clearly indicates a hook echo on the McClain and Garvin county line. The polygon indicates the area covered by the Tornado Warning issued by the Norman, OK National Weather Service.
The Storm Relative Velocity image taken at the same time shows a distinct couplet in the same location as the reflectivity image hook echo.
At 0104 UTC, the center of rotation has moved slightly to the southeast and is now just south of the McClain county border. The reflectivity image indicates the supercell may have begun to wrap precipitation around the mesocyclone at the lower levels.
The Storm Relative Velocity image at 0104 UTC indicates the mesocyclone has maintained its previous intensity. Also evident is outflow and/or a strong Rear Flank Downdraft (RFD) running from the southern part of the couplet to near Pauls Valley, OK.
By 0113 UTC the hook echo has become even more pronounced as the storm begins a slow drift to the southeast into the inflow. As displayed, the new Tornado Warning now covers an area to the southeast of the hook echo. The SPC Storm Data does have a record of a tornado in this area but it’s not known if any damage occurred.

Descrizione libro Devorss & Co. Paperback. Condizione libro: New. Paperback. 177 pages. Dimensions: 8.3in. x 5.3in. x 0.5in.ELEVEN MEN embarked upon a journey in 1894 with one objective: . . . to find the great spiritual teachers of the Far East and witness their uncommon abilities. Since these Masters were scattered over a wide territory that covered a large portion of India, Tibet, China, and Persia, they knew it could take years of searching many secluded villages and hidden mountain communes. Planning each step of the journey became a challenge knowing that countless miles of rugged terrain separated the remote and isolate locations that were imperative to the exploration. Even though they could plot their route on a map and see where they were headed, the destination deep within the souls of eleven scientifically trained men remained uncertain. Baird T. Spalding and the others were practical in nature and the thought of spiritual masters performing miracles seemed impossible. Despite these suspect thoughts, something compelled them to move onward.

Adventures of a Recovering Basket Case: Serendipities Everywhere
"Well, we were just looking for you. We met you a couple of weeks ago, and we were hoping to visit with you again. And here you are." Although it seemed she had forgotten us, we were soon chatting like old friends. She and Allyson particularly enjoyed exchanging observations about birds. We left with a promise of a cardinal drawing from Allyson, and on our way out we met two more ladies: Diane and Shirley. Allyson soon determined their favorite animals, elephants and weinie dogs; now she had two more commissions for her artwork.
Wie Heissen Sie? The next serendipity came on Saturday afternoon, when we took Allyson to her first major league hockey game. Bill had received one free ticket from his amateur hockey league, and was able to procure two more so we could come along. That part's not the serendipity. Actually, I wasn't really in the mood to go sit in the cold arena because I was in the middle of a terrible allergy attack. But I knew it was important to them, so I made myself go. I never expected to enjoy myself.
"It's a noise maker," Bill explained. "A noisemaker?" he repeated in a heavy accent that sounded German. "I have not seen this before."
"Oh, I don't mind," he said, slapping his noisemaker tentatively and then more agressively. "It's exciting, no?" He then explained that whenever he travels around the U.S. on business for his company in Germany, he loves to go to hockey games. Ah, I knew he was German! I thought. It took me half a period to tell him that I had taken a total of five years of German in high school and college. "I don't remember much at all," I admitted ruefully. "You're only the second or third German I've met in my adult life. I should have taken Spanish instead." He nodded.
"Nein, Hartmud. It's a good old German name." "Oh," I said. "Ich heisse Sarah." "Sehr gut (Very good), Sarah," he said. I blushed. "Danke." I told him that I understood a bit, but speaking? Not good. (Ich verstehe ein bisschen, aber ich spreche... nicht gut.)
At that point, Bill elbowed me and asked if I was trying to speak German to the poor man. A lot more German words were flooding my mind then, but I figured he was here to watch hockey, not listen to very bad German. Sitting next to this avid hockey fan from Germany gave me a whole new perspective on the game. He was ecstatic about every save and every goal, on either side. He talked endlessly to anyone who would listen, and even to some people who didn't seem to be listening. He asked all sorts of hockey trivia questions, like didn't this player win the Stanley cup in 2009, and wasn't that player injured last week in New York? I finally had to admit that I knew even less about hockey than I did about German, but that didn't seem to bother him. When he asked how many seats the arena held, Bill looked it up in a magazine we'd gotten for free with our platinum seats. "Eighteen-thousand, five hundred," he said. A chill coursed through me. Out of 18,500 seats, what were the odds that a ridiculously friendly German man would have the seat next to mine? God, you arranged that, didn't you? I thought.
Everything about that game was really great. It was a close game for the first two periods, with lots of shots on goal, but a score of 1 to 1. "Those goalies are great, no?" Hartmud asked, and I had to agree. In the third period, the Stars scored three more goals, and we were all hoarse from shouting.
During worship service this morning, I happened to think of the last time I sat with Laura at church, almost a year ago. I missed her so much, and wanted her worshipping beside me. Just then, one of my very favorite worship songs came on: "Worthy is the lamb who was slain; holy, holy is he." I recognized it by about the third bar, but when Ana started singing, the words were unfamiliar... because she was singing in Spanish! It was so beautiful that tears sprang to my eyes. It reminded me of the time my friend Maria and I visited Laura, and Maria played Spanish worship music for her. For a moment, I was kneeling on the floor of Laura's bedroom again, letting the music wash over me and singing along in my spirit. In the eight years we've gone to our church, they've never sung in Spanish. I'm sure they did it today because this was the day of the first Spanish service, which followed ours. But the fact that that Spanish song started just as I was aching with the memory of Laura? Another serendipity. Handkerchiefs
I've been sneezing all weekend, and every time I blow my nose on a Kleenex, the paper dust makes me sneeze even more. My poor nose is raw. I'd emailed Gentle late last night to see if she could make me some hankies, and she had them ready for me by this afternoon! When I went to pick them up this evening, we had a wonderful visit. I used a hankie right away, and she was tickled to know that I loved it. I don't think I'll ever go back to paper tissues. You might be thinking, "Those hankies were from Gentle, not God." To that, I would reply, "Gentle is the serendipity." I could say the same for my friends Marie and Lori, whom I had the pleasure to spend time with this weekend. Yes, God is good. Sehr gut, nein? Written by
Not coincidence but God incidence.God bless.
I love the hankies! They are so pretty, and they get softer and softer with each wash. I need to order some more soon.My only problem is that they all get dirty and then I keep forgetting to wash them. That's why I need to buy lots and lots. | [

The present invention generally relates to methods of adding storage space to a server. More particularly, the invention relates to dynamically linking storage space to a server without powering down the server.
Dynamic storage space linking is the ability to add additional disk drive images corresponding to the additional storage space to one or more active servers and link the disk drive images to the one or more active servers without powering down the servers. Presently, to add storage space to a server in a client/server system, the server is required to be powered down before the storage space can be added to the server. In a typical process for adding storage space, the storage space is created as an additional disk drive image in a server description, and then the disk drive image is linked to the server while the server is powered down. When the server is powered back up, the initial server loading program performs the tasks required to complete the link between the server and the disk drive image, and the newly linked disk drive image becomes available to clients connected to the server once the server becomes active.
However, many systems require the server to be available at all times, and powering down an active server for installation of a new storage space is undesirable. One current solution to add disks to an active server utilizes a special bus and devices attached to a server through the special bus. USB (Universal Serial Bus) and IEEE 1394 (Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers standard 1394) are two bus types that support hot pluggable devices. However, devices designed for connection to USB or IEEE 1394 buses are typically not designed to be used as a server's disk drive or storage space. Disks attached to a server are typically connected through a SCSI (Small Computer System Interface), and SCSI devices are usually not hot pluggable devices.
Another solution for adding disks to an active server requires special hardware. For example, a SCSI disk drive may be added to a special hardware disk bay, such as a RAID (Redundant Array of Independent Disks) tower, while the server is active. However, the special hardware requires additional cost and may also require special knowledge during initial installation of the special hardware.
Therefore, a need exists for a method for adding storage space to a server without powering down the server. It is desirable for the storage space to be added without requiring installation of special hardware or physically installing additional storage devices to the server. It is further desired for the method to be simple to perform and fast in execution.
A method for adding storage space to a server without powering down the server is provided. The method provides for the storage space to be added without requiring installation of special hardware or physically installing additional storage devices to the server, and the method is simple to perform and fast in execution.
One embodiment provides a method for dynamically linking a storage space to a network server, comprising: adding a new disk drive image to a network server description for the network server through a host server operating system, the new disk drive image corresponding to the storage space to be linked; sending a dynamic linking request from the host server operating system to a network server operating system; in response to the dynamic linking request, sending a device scanning request from the network server operating system to the host server operating system; in response to the device scanning request, requesting response from each device connected to each SCSI port of a host server and reporting the new disk drive image to the network server operating system; and presenting the new disk drive image to users connected to the network server.
FIG. 1 is a schematic diagram illustrating a client/server system having a host server and a plurality of network servers.
FIG. 2 is a flow chart illustrating one embodiment of a method for dynamically linking storage space.
FIG. 1 is a schematic diagram illustrating a client/server system having a host server and a plurality of network servers. The client/server system 100 includes a host server 110 and one or more network servers 130 disposed in connection with the host server 110. A plurality of clients 150 (e.g., client computers and network stations) may be connect to the host server 110 and/or the network servers 130 through local area networks, wide area networks, and remote access connections. The clients 150 may communicate through TCP/IP (Transfer Control Protocol/Internet Protocol) with the servers 110, 130.
The one or more network servers 130 may comprise one or more integrated servers built on a PCI (Peripheral Component Interconnect) or SPD (System Product Division) card that can be installed onto PCI or SPD slots of the host server. The network servers 130 may be housed in the same housing as the host server. Alternatively, network servers 130 may be housed in one or more separate housings. The host server 110 and the network servers 130 are connected and communicate through an internal LAN (local area network) connection (e.g., a PCI bus).
The host server 110 includes one or more processors 112, memory 114, an I/O (input/output) processor 116, and a system bus 111 connecting these components. Input/output devices such as a display monitor 118, a keyboard 120, and a pointing device 122 (e.g., mouse) are connected to the host server 110 through the I/O processor 116. One or more storage devices 124, such as direct access storage device (DASD), tape storage devices, CD-ROM (compact disc read only memory), and other optical or magnetic storage devices, may be connected to the host server 110 through SCSI bus/ports 117 connected to the I/O processor 116. Data files, software programs, and other information may be stored on the storage devices 124. One or more software programs, such as a host server operating system 126 (e.g., IBM OS/400) and a host server administration software program 128, may be stored in memory 114 or alternatively, in the storage devices 124. Operation of the host server operating system 126 and the host server 110 may be controlled by user input through I/O devices such as the keyboard 120 and the pointing device 122.
The network server 130 includes one or more processors 132, memory 134, a bridge/support logic 136 and one or more LAN cards 148. These components of the network server are connected to a PCI bus 131, which connects the network server to the I/O processor 116 of the host server 110. Input/output devices such as a display monitor 138, a keyboard 140, and a pointing device 142 (e.g., mouse) are connected to the network server 130 through the bridge/support logic 136. Additional I/O ports 143 may include one or more serial ports and parallel ports. One or more software programs, such as a network server operating system 146 (e.g., Windows 2000 and Windows NT server operating systems) may be stored in memory 134. Operation of the network server operating system 146 and the network server 130 may be controlled by user input through I/O devices such as the keyboard 140 and the pointing device 142.
The network server operating system described herein refers to any server operating system that can use a software disk drive image that appears to the network server as a physical disk drive. For example, the IBM Integrated xSeries server for iSeries supports such software disk drive image when running a server operating system such as Windows 2000. The disk drives in such exemplar environment are actually IFS (Integated File System) files that are presented to the Windows server as disk drives. Disk drive images appear to the network server operating system as a disk drive with the help of a disk driver and lower layer processes (e.g., SLIC or System Licensed Internal Code through a TIMI or Technology Independent Machine Interface) that can read from the file similar to a normal disk driver that can read from a hard disk. The disk drive image is partitioned, formatted, and supports all the normal disk drive requests that the network server operating system expects.
A commercial example of a client/server system having a host server and a plurality of network servers is the IBM iSeries server (host) with the IBM xSeries integrated servers. Although embodiments of the invention are described utilizing commands for the IBM OS/400� operating system running on IBM iSeries server and in connection with the IBM xSeries integrated servers running a Windows� 2000 server operating system, it is understood that other embodiments may be practiced on other server systems and other operating systems.
FIG. 2 is a flow chart illustrating one embodiment of a method for dynamically linking storage space. In one embodiment, the processes performed on or by the host server operating system is shown in FIG. 2A, and the processes performed on or by the network server operating system is shown in FIG. 2B. Prior to linking a storage space, a disk drive image representing the storage space is created on the host server. The storage space may include existing data which may be utilized immediately after the dynamic linking process. In one embodiment, the disk drive image is created as a file which is equivalent in size as the amount of space required for the storage space to be added. For example, if an additional 2 gigabytes of disk space is required for the server, then a 2 gigabyte file is created for the disk drive image. The data that is stored in the file is the information the host server operating system will recognize as the master boot record of the disk. As an example, the disk drive image may be created on an IBM iSeries server running OS/400 using a command called “create network server storage” (CRTNWSSTG). A name (e.g., DYNSTG1) is given to the disk drive image which is used to manage the disk drive image in the dynamic linking process 200 described below. The disk drive image creation step is not considered part of the dynamic link process, but is required for the existence of a disk drive image.
The dynamic linking process 200 begins at step 202 in which the newly created disk drive image (e.g., DYNSTG1) is added to the server description at the network server operating system's list of allocated disk drive images. For each network server running in this environment, a list is stored in a server description which keeps track of various items including the disk drives being used by the respective network server. This list contains the names of the disk drives allocated to the respective server in the same order that is required for the respective server to boot properly. The first disk in the list is the bootable image, followed by any additional disks required for the server. The server description (e.g., SERVER1) which is used on the IBM iSeries server is known as Network Server Description (NWSD). The command used to add the new disk drive image to the server description on the IBM iSeries server is the “add network server storage link” (ADDNWSSTGL) command. By specifying both the server name and the disk drive image name on the command, the new disk drive image name gets stored in the server description list of disk drive images.
After the new disk drive image name is stored in the server description, a process to lock that storage space for use of the server is performed at step 204. To lock the storage space for use of the server, the network server description file is opened, and the open pointers that are used in lower level code to get direct access to the data held inside the disk drive image are stored into a different area of the network server description. After the open pointers are stored in the network server description, a program call is performed with a specific parameter to inform an ADMIN MONITOR JOB program on the host server that a dynamic storage link process is being performed.
The ADMIN MONITOR JOB is a program that runs on the host server operating system and is used for integration between the host server operating system and a network server (e.g., an integrated server) operating system. The ADMIN MONITOR JOB performs many functions including, but not limited to, time synchronization, power up and power down management, user profile synchronization, sending remote commands, and retrieving server statistics. Some functions performed by the ADMIN MONITOR JOB may be executed by the ADMIN DAEMON program running on the network server operating system.
The ADMIN DAEMON is a program which continually runs on the network server operating system and waits for requested tasks. When the ADMIN DAEMON receives a request from the ADMIN MONITOR JOB, the ADMIN DAEMON performs the requested task and responds back with the results when the task is completed. The ADMIN MONITOR JOB and the ADMIN DAEMON communicate through a TCP/IP socket interface.
The ADMIN MONITOR JOB receives notification that a dynamic link request is being performed and builds a dynamic link request envelope to be sent to the ADMIN DAEMON program running on the network server operating system (step 206). The ADMIN MONITOR JOB may send the dynamic link request envelope through a socket interface on a TCP/IP LAN connection. The dynamic link request envelope states that a dynamic link request is being performed and that a rescan of the SCSI bus on the host server needs to be performed. After the ADMIN MONITOR JOB sends the envelope packet, an event timer is set on the host operating system which waits for a response back from the ADMIN DAEMON on the network server system.
After the ADMIN DAEMON receives notification of the dynamic link request from the admin monitor job, the ADMIN DAEMON informs the network server's DASD (Direct Access Storage Device) device driver that the SCSI bus needs to be rescanned to find the additional storage space corresponding to the new disk drive image (step 208). For the IBM integrated xSeries server running Windows� 2000, this is done using provided APIs (Application Program Interface) to signal the disk driver and passing a defined IOCTL (Input/Output Control code) which informs the disk driver to rescan the SCSI bus.
The DASD device driver receives notification of rescan request via the IOCTL and verifies that the rescan request is valid. The DASD device driver then sends a request (e.g., a call) to the disk management program on the host server operating system (step 210). The disk management program is the code which manages the open disk image files on the host operating system. The disk management program on the host server is requested to re-scan the SCSI bus.
In response to the call from the DASD device driver, the disk management program on the host server operating system views the list of open disk drive image pointers stored in the network server description and reports back to the DASD device driver that a new disk drive is available (step 212). The DASD device driver receives notification that the new disk drive (i.e., the storage space represented by the new disk drive image) is available, and then the DASD device driver informs the network server operating system that a change occurred on the affected SCSI bus (step 214).
In response to the detected change on the SCSI bus, the network server operating system requests response from each device connected to each SCSI port (step 216). During this step, the network server operating system detects the new disk drive image as a newly added disk drive and presents the new disk drive image to users of the server that a new disk is available. The newly added storage space becomes immediately useable.
The following steps describe responses for completing the dynamic linking process 200. Once the network server operating system has been informed that a change was detected on the SCSI bus at the completion of step 214, the DASD device driver sends a response (e.g., a return code) to the IOCTL that was sent by the ADMIN DAEMON to inform the ADMIN DAEMON that the rescan of the SCSI bus has been completed (step 218). At step 220, the ADMIN DAEMON sends a response packet through the TCP/IP socket to the ADMIN MONITOR JOB with the status of the dynamic link and completion of the requested tasks. At step 222, the ADMIN MONITOR JOB responds to the program call from step 204 with a return code to inform the completion status of the dynamic link. At step 224, the process call to lock the storage space returns a response to the “add network server storage link” (ADDNWSSTGL) command with a return code to inform the completion status of the dynamic link. At step 226, the “add network server storage link” (ADDNWSSTGL) command informs the user that the dynamic link process has completed.

Where is Brian? Brian is shaving his bottom, in the kitchen | Gaffe-iti
« Shoes maketh the man… but breaketh the relationship
C’est la rentree de dingue – when the crazies come home »
Where is Brian? Brian is shaving his bottom, in the kitchen
The best thing about taking a remedial language course is that you form bonds with people from different countries, based on slagging off people from other countries.
Before I go on, are their any Russians reading? Arabs?
Good. We’ll continue.
Given immunity today were The Austrians* and The Japanese – by virtue of the fact that they were represented in class. The Italian guy wasn’t so lucky, he always seems to cop his share, likewise me as an Australian.
Teacher: You didn’t work today?
Teacher: Well you’re dressed like that.
Obviously the teacher was not a fan of linen pants. That made two of us, but I was trying to make the Italian feel at home.
Today we revised some basic pronunciation, namely perfecting the difference between saying “neck” (cou) and “arse” (cul).
At this point the Italian had an “ah-ha!” moment: He had been having his hair cut earlier in the week, and now realised he had told the hairdresser “make sure you shave my arse properly”.
With our new found pronunciation skills, we then compared notes about The Russians, uniformly coming to the conclusion that they are absolutely the worst type of tourists, except for perhaps The Gulf Arabs.
The discussion ended with:
“…And when they wear those t-shirts with the hair exploding out of them…Usch”.
I remember this distinctly, because in addition to linen pants, I was also wearing a V-neck t-shirt from which my ample chest hair was sprouting.
In any case, we all left that evening satisfied that we’d improved our ability to express ourselves in French, even if just a little.
Still, learning languages later in life, and in evening courses is not the best way to do it. In France, English is taught in schools, and from what I can gather, children across the country uniformly learn from the same text book.
This text book has the following phrase (immortalised by French comic Gad Elmaleh):
“Brian is in the kitchen.”
The fact that every French person knows this line is testament to the power of this text book to enlighten…but it does also cause its fair share of confusion.
For example, if someone asks, “Where is Brian?” Does it follow that the answer must always be: “…in the kitchen?”
Julie F’s brother recently found out. The poor young Frenchman is working in Brisbane – it gets worse – in a restaurant – worse still – with someone called, Brian (yes, in Australian apparently the name lives on past the 1970s).
The other day his boss arrived late. “Where is Brian?” He asked her brother.
Automatically the response, without a second thought: “Brian is in the kitchen.”
The boss went to the kitchen, looked in, around, under the stove, inside the cool room. And then returned.
“No, I didn’t see him. Are you sure he is in the kitchen?”
The brother shrugged. If Brian’s not in the kitchen, where else would he be?
*Note, The Austrians are distinct to just plain Austrians, who are people just like you or me, but potentially wearing leiderhosen.

As a native French speaker, I have to precise one point: the famous cue “where is Brian?” is very famous indeed but mainly from Gad Elmaleh’s show; it is not entirely true that all 1st-year textbooks include this line in their teaching method… (at least not in mine) | [

Chiang Mai city center; 25 Km.Carlos et Dirk sont des hôtes formidables et très avenants. Le lieu est très paisible, la jardin fabuleux et les logements très biens. C'est un endroit parfait pour trouver le repos et la beauté de la nature. Merci beaucoup pour ce séjour Matthieu2015-08-17T00:00:00ZHad a wonderfull stay at Carlos & Dirk, we felt really at home. They picked us up at the Chiang Mai trainstation and told us that we got a free upgrade, what a suprise! The villa that we stayed in looked really luxurious and was clean. They also arranged a moterbike for us for 1 week for thb 1250,- which is a good price. There was also a laundry machine which we could use for free, you just have to fight your way trough the peacocks to get there ;-). Also these gentlemen recommended us some nice places and restaurants to visit, boy where they right about that one restaurant by the way, Nasi Jumpru (asian fushioncooking). So far this has been the highlight of our trip, would definitly book at Carlos & Dirk again if we visit Chiang Mai again. Thank you Carlos & Dirk for making us feel so welcome!Steffan2015-02-16T00:00:00ZCarlos & Dirk have a magnificent place. It was very beautiful, peaceful and quiet. The villa we stayed in was amazing. Very spacious and well presented. Carlos & Dirk were also very helpful and willing to act as a taxi service for us. Definitely recommend staying here.Jeremy2016-10-05T00:00:00ZWe had a great stay at Carlos and Dirk place. They even uprgraded us in a villa instead of the studio that we've booked. The place is exactly as on the pictures, the lake and animals are there and are very beautiful. It was very quiet too so very nice. It was a little bit far from Chang Mai so we had to rent a motorbike but it was good because it was part of our journey. Carlos and Dirk are really nice people, we surely go back there to have a peaceful and quiet stay. Lili & Chris2015-12-01T00:00:00ZWe stayed 3 days at Kinkala Garden. It was a beautiful area, it was 20-30 minutes out from Chiang Mai so perfect if you are looking for a more relaxing, calm environment. There are 2 convenient stores within walking distance and 2 local restaurants however one closes at 5pm while the other (the one across the lake) opens at 5pm but is closed on Monday. Garden had peacocks and birds, which was fun but be aware that the rooster will crow every morning at about 5am (good place for early risers).Garret2016-05-19T00:00:00ZService remarquable, accueil irréprochable des hôtes vraiment exceptionnels, un site super beau avec plein d'étangs et d'oiseaux exotiques, une tranquillité assurée, une maison vraiment propre et décorée avec goût, à deux pas du site un lac avec des couchers de soleil a couper le souffle. Bref un séjour inoubliable. Nous y avons passé un mois merveilleux. Merci à vous deux pour ce site de tout repos.. Carole et Marcel, Québec, Canada Marcel2015-02-03T00:00:00ZDirk and Carlos have done their best to make my stay comfortable. They have a large and beautiful property, a sort of botanical garden. But the place is quite remote and there are only a few small chops in the neighborhood. The matrass is on the hard side, there has been a problem with water in the toilet and the kitchen is poorly equipped. You have to bring everything as there is not even a bit of salt. It's ok if you have your own means of transport, otherwise you may spent a lot of money to get around.Guy2016-12-03T00:00:00ZHeaven on earth - a beautiful place to stay, wonderful surroundings and great hosts. Even better than it looks on the photos. This really felt like a home away from home for us - we especially loved all the birds and pet cats. They provided lots of amusement! We originally booked for two nights but extended to nine as we felt like we had such a good deal. Dirk and Carlos made everything easy - from airport pick up, car rental (we really appreciated this) and advice on the best local markets! Would recommend renting a car or a motorbike for day trips and restaurants. You can also hire bicycles from Dirk and Carlos to explore the local countryside, which was a real highlight for us. Try Need cafe (it's yellow) right out side the property - great organic coffees and home made cakes that are super cheap. Go off the beaten track and relax in paradise!

Chiang Mai city center; 25 Km.Carlos and Dirk are very kind people who will welcome you warmly and help you with anything you need. The place is beautiful, calm, near a lake. Also it is full of animals such as peacocks and swans so it makes it a bit special. Again, very lovely place! Just one recommendation: bring your own gel/shampoo/drinking water as it is quite far from the city. You can also find everything you need at a shop nearby (5min walking). JP2017-02-04T00:00:00ZWarning: this place is NOT as advertised. It is MUCH BETTER! I think Dirk and Carlos have understated the draw and amenities present. I won't spoil your surprise(s)... suffice to say that it's more beautiful and more plush and more natural than I expected. Dirk and Carlos were excellent hosts, definitely attentive to their guests needs. In my case, that included waiting with me at the hospital after a motorcycle mishap had me walking around on crutches for days. Outside the compound, there is a lovely circular lake, good for a 20 minute walk. A few restaurants (one "street food" level and another a bit above). A great little open-air coffee spot, with some of the best coffee I've had in Thailand. A great place for writing and watching the sun set. (Buy some fish food from the coffee house, and watch the fish in the lake churn the water...) The apartment was pretty fantastic. Long, narrow, and with windows that catch both the sunrise and sunset. Perfect for solo or a couple. Only drawback: the apartment is filled with light, except for the small but serviceable kitchen, which is dark. A joy: fixing breakfast, then sitting out on the patio in the morning light. A pain: well... none.Shariff2017-01-18T00:00:00ZArt der UnterkunftGanze UnterkunftObjekttypWohnungUnterkunft für2SchlafzimmerChiang Mai, Chiang Mai, ThailandKinkala Luxus Gartenwohnung 2Preis51 CHF Kinkala Luxus Gartenwohnung 2Ganze Unterkunft · 1 Bett2 BewertungenSave to Wish ListAn easy place to stay for coming and visiting Lamphun, an old town with ancient temples everywhere.

The hotel is near to the airport and roughly 2 or 3 Km from the tourist attractions (Buddhist temples and teak mansions) in the in the city center. Q went out of his way to make me feel welcome. He is knowledgeable about the area and had good suggestions for sight seeing opportunities. My interest in renting a motorcycle during my stay is an example of the superlative service he provides. Phrae only has one rental shop unfortunately not close to the hotel. Q made arrangements for me and gave me a free ride to pick-up and drop-off the motorcycle.

Breakfast is basic American or Thai ala carte. Parking area is for about 10 cars so it may be a bit tight if there are more cars than that.

A peaceful place on a beautiful estate and a nice swimming pool by the security gate.

Signs and Shadows: Moral Cowardice in the Modern Age
Moral Cowardice in the Modern Age
A particularly unpleasant episode in my personal life got me reflecting on morality and moral actions in the modern world. It would appear to me that the modern mind is lacking in the ability to understand that good not only means to avoid evil, but that we are obliged to do good.
Obliged. That is a word we do not hear often these days. And yet it is just as true today that we do wrong not just by commiting evil, but by our omission to do what is right. Helping the poor, telling the truth, even a simple act such as an apology are all obligations that we owe to our neighbor, and to fail in such actions can be just as wrong as doing something wrong.
This simple idea is lost on us I think because we find it is sufficient to simply feel bad about a particular situation. If we have done something wrong as long as we sufficiently torture ourselves with guilt this fulfills our obligation. I feel bad about the poor. Therefore I am a good person. I was a jerk and I feel bad, so I am a good person.
And yet all we really prove is that our conscience isn't so far dead that we can still distinguish between right and wrong. Guilt is simply a vector for us to do good. It is our conscience motivating us to do what is right. To simply feel guilty without actually doing something to fulfill our obligations is not an indication of a moral person, but simply moral cowardice. It is the attempt to feel like a moral person with the need of doing anything right.
It is thus not surprising that the Church calls us to make an act of repentance for what we do not do as much as what we do. In the opening prayer we say, "I have sinned through my own fault, in what I have done and did not do(failed to do)." In her wisdom She calls us to repentance for when we fail to do what we owe to others. For if we do not do what we are called, we will become just as lost as those who do wrong.
