Until 2012, Wilmington Country Club relied upon an irrigation reservoir that could hold 12-15 million gallons of water for both of its 18-hole golf courses. The reservoir was recharged by runoff from the surrounding area and by transferring water from an off-site pond when needed. During severe droughts, the recharge sources could not keep pace with water use and there was only enough water to hand water putting greens and tees; fairway and rough irrigation was entirely suspended. The club incurred significant revenue losses during droughts because the amount of rounds played dropped as a result of poor playing conditions. Restoring dead and damaged turf areas after each drought was also costly. Wilmington Country Club needed an improved water supply to deliver more consistent playing conditions during periods of drought.
After reviewing several options it was decided that an additional reservoir would be built adjacent to the existing reservoir, increasing the facility's total water storage capacity to approximately 35 million gallons. Construction started during the summer of 2011 and finished in early 2012.
Water is transferred from the new reservoir to the distribution reservoir by an 8-inch HDPE pipe that is connected to a pump mounted on a custom platform at the bottom of the new reservoir. When the pump requires service, an air compressor is connected to a valve on the transfer line to force all of the water from the pipe. This causes the pipe and pump to float to the surface where service can be performed.
A project of this scale was not completed without challenges. Issues experienced during construction included rock formations that were not detected during pre-construction tests and a natural spring that was discovered near the bottom of the new reservoir. Both issues required adjustments that slightly reduced the new reservoir's holding capacity.
More than doubling the water storage at Wilmington Country Club provided ample water for both golf courses. However, the fact that more water is available does not mean the agronomic team has changed their water management strategy. Playability remains the top priority when making irrigation decisions, not aesthetics.
The 2016 golf season certainly tested the capabilities of the new reservoir. Prolonged periods of minimal rainfall were combined with above-average temperatures that persisted into November. These conditions meant that the golf courses required more-frequent irrigation for more of the year than normal. The improved water storage meant that irrigation did not have to be suspended on either golf course like in previous drought years.
The new reservoir also makes it possible for the original reservoir, which is a strategic feature on both golf courses, to remain full throughout the season. A consistent water level is maintained by transferring water from the new reservoir to the original reservoir as water is used to irrigate both golf courses. Having the original reservoir remain full throughout the season is considerably more attractive than watching it slowly empty.
Improving water storage may not excite golfers in the same way that a bunker renovation might, but the benefits of an adequate water supply cannot be overstated. Playing conditions are significantly improved during periods of drought and there is much less risk of serious turf damage and lost revenue.

The report states that: Success on future engine test would mean "a major breakthrough in propulsion worldwide"

The engine and vehicle can be developed with "today's current technology"
Reaction Engines will conduct an important demonstration of the engine's key pre-cooler technology later in the summer.
SKYLON is an unpiloted, reusable single stage to orbit (SSTO) spaceplane that will provide reliable access to space and be capable of delivering payloads of up to 15 tonnes into Low Earth Orbit (LEO, approx. 300km) at about 1/50 the of the cost of traditional expendable launch vehicles, such as rockets. SKYLON's SABRE engines use liquid hydrogen combined with oxygen from the air at altitudes up to 26km and speeds of up to Mach 5 before switching over to on-board liquid oxygen for the final stage of ascent.

The UK Space Agency's commissioned report concluded that 'no impediments or critical items have been identified for either the SKYLON vehicle or the SABRE engine that are a block to further developments'.
Dr David Parker, Director of Technology, Science and Exploration at the UK Space Agency, said, "Both SABRE and SKYLON are exciting new technologies which could transform access to space. ESA's positive assessment should give everyone increased confidence that Reaction Engines are on the right track. We are looking Engines are on the right track. We are looking forward to the upcoming technology tests with interest."
The UK Space Agency's technical assessment process was comprised of two parts. The first was a series of visits by technical experts from ESA to review Reaction Engines' designs and witness critical tests of component performance.
The second part was the SKYLON System Requirement Review, held on the 20th and 21st September 2010, at which almost 100 international aerospace experts posed questions and made comments on SKYLON's technical and economic feasibility. "The review ended with a consensus that no technical or economic impediments to the development of SKYLON or SABRE had been found."
Reaction Engines consider the review a success, and its spaceplane is attracting renewedintere st from the international aerospace community.
Alan Bond, inventor of the SABRE engine and Reaction Engines' Managing Director, commented: "Space has many things to offer humanity, but the sheer expense of rockets - which have served us well in the past - is inhibiting the growth of commercial activity in space. To take one example, SKYLON promises to cut the cost of launching communication satellites, on which the digital revolution depends, by an order of magnitude. SKYLON will be fully commercial to operate and develop - generating jobs and investment for UK plc. We are delighted that this independent report from the UK Space Agency expresses confidence in SKYLON."
A Hybrid Air-breathing / Rocket Engine, SABRE Represents a Huge Advance over LACE Technology.
In the past, attempts to design single stage to orbit rockets have been unsuccessful largely due to the weight of oxidiser such as liquid oxygen. One possible solution to reduce the quantity of oxidizer that a vehicle is required to carry is being able to use atmospheric oxygen in the combustion process. The SABRE engine achieves this with its two modes of operation: its air-breathing and conventional rocket capabilities. This is made possible through a synthesis of elements from rocket and gas turbine technology.
Skylon vehicle detailed design for the passenger module, which could be swopped out for a payload module. Narrated by Brian Blessed.
Though the SKYLON has primarily been designed to launch satellites, consideration has been given to its passenger carrying capabilities. SKYLON is basically a hypersonic aircraft with hybrid engines, changing their mode of operation as the vehicle leaves the atmosphere. On return, because it is an aircraft, it has a cross range capability and ends its flights by landing conventionally on a runway.
The SKYLON payload bay is 12.7m long, 4.6m wide and 4.6m high. During normal satellite delivery operations, the bay would carry an interchangeable payload container. When used for passenger transport, an alternative pressurised, self-contained module could readily be fitted between flights. This module would provide a breathable atmosphere and additional life support for 30 or 40 passengers. Under the floor of the cabin, part of the space is needed for life support equipment, with the rest available for passenger baggage and cargo.
The central feature of the module is the transfer airlock, used for docking to a space station and for in-orbit transfer between vehicles. Normal ground access is by means of two side doors in the module, which line up with doors in the exterior of the SKYLON fuselage. Passengers would enter and exit using normal airport airbridges.
In case of a ground emergency, e.g. runway overshoot, passengers would exit the cabin through these doors and make their way to the ground by conventional inflatable chutes. The cabin also has two toilet cubicles, operating along the lines of those found on the Russian 'MIR' space station.
It would be possible to incorporate windows in the 'roof' of the module. During ascent and descent, the payload bay doors would be kept closed, but during the coasting ascent and while in orbit, the payload bay doors would be opened and SKYLON rolled 'upside down', providing views of the Earth. While not strictly necessary, windows would possibly reduce the symptoms of space sickness by providing a spatial reference, and of course, the views would far surpass anything that could be seen on a screen. These windows would need to be of a triple layer design, such as those found on the Space Shuttle.
Acceleration (G-Force) experienced by the passengers needs to be considered. It has been shown that it is possible to adjust the ascent profile in such a way that acceleration effects would be no more extreme than those felt on a modern fairground ride, and would not pose a problem for a typically healthy and fit person. Effects felt during the descent phase would be even less extreme.
The SABRE Engine
The design of SABRE evolved from liquid-air cycle engines (LACE) which have a single rocket combustion chamber with associated pumps, pre-burner and nozzle which are utilised in both modes. LACE engines employ the cooling capacity of the cryogenic liquid hydrogen fuel to liquefy incoming air prior to pumping. Unfortunately, this type of cycle necessitates very high fuel flow.
Credit: Reaction Engines Ltd.
These faults are avoided in the SABRE engine, which only cools down the air to the vapour boundary and avoids liquefaction. This allows the use of a relatively conventional turbo compressor and avoids the requirement for an air condenser.
The SABRE engine is essentially a closed cycle rocket engine with an additional pre-cooled turbo-compressor to provide a high pressure air supply to the combustion chamber. This allows operation from zero forward speed on the runway and up to Mach 5.5 in air-breathing mode during ascent. As the air density falls with altitude the engine eventually switches to a pure rocket propelling SKYLON to orbital velocity (around Mach 25).
Air collection is via a simple conical two shock inlet with a translating centrebody to maintain shock-on-lip conditions. The centrebody moves forward to close the inlet for re-entry. A bypass system is used to match the variable captured air flow to the engine demand. This bypass flow is reheated in order to recover the momentum lost through the capture shock system.
The thrust during air-breathing ascent is variable but around 200 tonnes. During rocket ascent this rises to 300 tonnes but is then throttled down towards the end of the ascent to limit the longitudinal acceleration to 3.0g.

When we were camping in Forillon National Park (Parc National Forillon) Gaspe, Quebec I came across a porcupine eating leaves. The video is somewhat long, but fascinating, especially about three-quarters of the way through when he/she stands to eat, you then get a good look at its face. You will note that I say to my husband something to the effect of get back it will shoot its quills. Hubby was getting too close, but no porcupines do not shoot quills. However, their quills are difficult to remove when you are pierced with one, they will grow new ones.
20 Replies to "Video of a porcupine in the wild"
So nice to see how they eat, kind of standing on their back legs and feeding themselves just like humans. 😀
There's something so cool about watching nature.. on a computer screen.
Thanks for sharing, young lady.
I can honestly say I've never seen one in the wild … but I didn't know that that people grew quills if they are pierced with one.
How exciting to see a porcupine – aren't they extraordinary creatures? It seemed pretty chilled about you filming it. Those leaves must have been delicious for it not to care!
How very cool! It didn't notice you at all? Those leaves certainly look yummy. How exciting to be able to observe it like that!

SANTA FE, N.M. — Last year, one shopper from Rio Rancho was thrilled to buy a tree stump for $5. Someone else scored an RV. And dozens of other treasure hunters left with furniture, toys and other trinkets.
The Jemez Mountain Trail Sale is a garage sale addict's dream come true with 26-plus miles of yard sales set up roughly along N.M. 4, starting in San Ysidro. This year's 12th annual sale, scheduled for Oct. 17 and 18, promises another year of bargains.
"We're pretty excited," said Heidi Downs, owner of the La Cueva Lodge. "It's the best time for spring cleaning. It's a great community venture, I think, and it gets people out here."
Like many in the valley, Downs plans to sell and to shop.
"I get some great bargains, which is super fun," she said, adding that she has her eye out for unique décor for the hotel guest rooms. "Last year we got some great furniture."
The two ladies who first started the sale, originally called the 26 Mile Trail Sale, had lived in Tennessee and were inspired by the 127 Corridor Sale, also known as the World's Longest Yard Sale.
That sale began in Jamestown, Tenn., as a way to draw folks off the interstate and onto rural back roads. The sale now runs from five miles north of Addison, Mich., south to Chattanooga, Tenn., on U.S. Highway 127, then switches to the Lookout Mountain Parkway and continues to Gadsden, Ala. – a total of 690 miles through six states.
The Jemez Mountain Trail Sale offers the same informal shopping and community experience. Several people offer space at their homes or businesses for sellers from outside the valley or for people whose homes are off the beaten path.
The WEEKENDS store in Jemez Springs is one of those cluster locations, along with Aspen Ridge Alpacas in Thompson Ridge, La Cueva Auto, Fitzgerald Park in Jemez Springs, the Walatowa Visitor Center in Jemez Pueblo, Trail House Grocery, Liquor & Grill in Canon and others.
"The trail sale is a terrific event and just gets better every year," said WEEKENDS owner Colleen Collins, who has been involved in the sale for years and sells Jemez Springs T-shirts ("Jemez Springs New Mexico — Just a little Southwest of Normal") to help offset sale promotion costs.
"This year, in addition to a wide variety of yard sale type items, I expect to have a woman wood carver with beautiful hand-carved items, a gem and mineral guy, a food vendor with fry bread and chile, a woman selling her personal collection of fabric pieces, a friend selling a beautiful motorcycle and who knows what else," she said.
Talty Robinson, the coordinator of this year's sale, has been working hard to bring in more sellers and expects there could be 100 people setting up shop on the roadside. There's still time to contact a cluster location organizer and join the selling; information is available on the sale Facebook page, she said.
Small-town feel
Robinson and Collins advised hard-core yard sale shoppers from the city that there's no need to head out at the crack of dawn.
"Don't do that – you'll be alone. It's really dark and cold," Collins said. "It's much more relaxed than it is in the city. There are people that are setting up and adding more stuff all the time. Even on Sunday there are still people who are putting up stuff."
Robinson said 9 or 10 a.m. would be a good time to start shopping. She warned people not to expect a continuous line of sales along the entire route, but rather pockets here and there. And she suggested dressing in layers and bringing along water and snacks. Of course, there will be folks selling baked items and other food along the trail.
Flo Yepa, owner of Sun & Fire Pottery House in Jemez Pueblo, will have people setting up to sell in front of her home along N.M. 4.
"We welcome everyone," she said. "They can bring their art, crafts or whatever they want to get rid of."
Yepa said she'll be selling food and "what I call my junk, your treasures."
"I'm looking forward to it again this year," she said. "It's going to be very interesting."
The sale offers more than an opportunity to bargain hunt and make a little extra money. It's a perfect time to see the cottonwoods glimmering along the river and also a community event that brings together neighbors and others.
"That's the most beautiful weekend of the entire year in the Jemez Valley," Robinson said. "The leaves are at the peak of their color usually."
Downs compared the atmosphere to a block party. Collins agreed.
"Everybody is very friendly and neighborly," she said. "It's a really big sale with a small-town feel."

Watch as Chance the Rapper kills it on SNL for the third time
He even brought out Chicago artist Noname
December 18, 2016 at 8:03 am
Photo: Villagevoice.com
With 13 days left in 2016, we really needed someone to come through, someone who embodied the year, someone who gave us hope. Who better than Chance the Rapper to bring us home — the Chicago emcee who released his third project this year in Coloring Book returned to SNL for the third time in his career. If you remember, he had that absolutely epic performance with Kanye West introducing us to '"Ultralight Beam." Enough about the past though, let's talk about Chance the Rapper last night.
As expected we got a double dose of Chance with him performing "Finish Line/Drown" first. I couldn't have been more excited because he brought NoName to drop her verse. This was perfect, given NoName has had an epic year herself, releasing her debut album Telefone. Both seemed in their element and, as with most Chance performances these days, he had a choir and backup vocalists to really drive the point home.
For his second song of the night, Chance switched it up on us yet again, this time performing "Same Drugs" while playing the piano, smiling and delivering that down-to-earth stage presence we all love the whole time.
Chance The Rapper's "Same Drugs" 🎄🎁☃.@nbcsnl @chancetherapper #ChanceonSNL #SaturdayNightLive #Chance3 #Chicago 🌎🇺🇸#Illinois 🌎🇺🇸 pic.twitter.com/pIUQe8SL3B— Pitch Black ™ (@pitchblack4life) December 18, 2016
This SNL performance comes off the recent announcement of Chance's seven Grammy nominations for Coloring Book. Along with the two songs tonight, Chance also appeared in a skit with Kenan Thompson and Leslie Jones parodying Run-DMC's "Christmas in Hollis."
Needless to say, Chance did that. Here's to new music and performances from him in 2017!

Russian Hackers Reportedly Targeted A "Vulnerable" Democrat & Yes, It Matters
After numerous American intelligence organizations, including the CIA, NSA, and FBI confirmed that hacking by the Russian GRU intelligence agency played a part in the 2016 presidential election, fears it would happen again have plagued the 2018 midterm election races. Well, brace yourselves. On Thursday, the Daily Beast reported that the same Russian hackers targeted Democratic Sen. Claire McCaskill and her reelection race. And while by all accounts it probably wasn't successful, it's still a big deal.
According to Vox, McCaskill, a senator from Missouri, is defending one of the most vulnerable Democratic Senate seats in this year's election, in a state that went to Trump by almost 20 points in 2016. The Daily Beast's investigation reported that, in a similar strategy to that of the Democratic National Convention hack, hackers sent one of McCaskill's aides an email asking them to reset their "expired" Microsoft Exchange password, a method of phishing to gain access to the target's email account.
This revelation comes just two days after President Trump tweeted his concern that possible Russian hacking would serve to put Democrats in office in 2018. During last week's national outrage over his kowtowing to Russian President Vladimir Putin at the Helsinki summit last week, Trump went back and forth over whether he believed that Russia was responsible for the 2016 hacking at all.
In the press conference following the summit meeting, even Putin confirmed that he wanted Trump to win the 2016 election. Democrats and critics took Trump's statement as yet another example of his habit of gaslighting the public.
"So obviously, you invited Putin over here, in the weeks before the upcoming election, as an indication of your concern," tweeted ex-Obama administration staffer Ronald Klain. New York Sen. Chuck Schumer responded on Twitter with a video of Putin responding "Yes I did" to a question about whether he wanted Trump to win the election, captioned "Let's go the video tape (again)."
According to The Daily Beast, the hack on McCaskill's reelection campaign actually occurred back in August, 2017. In order to gain access to individual email accounts, a department of Russia's GRU agency called Fancy Bear — the same group that targeted the DNC in 2016 — reportedly set up a "password reset" webpage that looked identical to the U.S. Senate email login page, complete with the Microsoft logo.
In 2016, Microsoft actually sued Fancy Bear for its fraudulent phishing websites, and won. As a result, since August, 2017, says The Daily Beast, Microsoft has been able to redirect traffic from the fake Senate email page to its own servers, which enables the company to monitor password reset attempts. The Daily Beast's investigation into these attempts, which Microsoft executive Tom Burt disclosed last week, showed that McCaskill and two other election candidates were the targets of the attempted hacks.
"Russia continues to engage in cyber warfare against our democracy. I will continue to speak out and press to hold them accountable," McCaskill told The Daily Beast. "While this attack was not successful, it is outrageous that they think they can get away with this. I will not be intimidated. I've said it before and I will say it again, Putin is a thug and a bully."

- Rebreather Experience:
- rEvo
And all I ask is a tall ship and a star to steer her by,
And the wheel's kick and the wind's song and the white sail's shaking,
And a grey mist on the sea's face, and a grey dawn breaking.
I must go down to the seas again, for the call of the running tide
Is a wild call and a clear call that may not be denied;
And all I ask is a windy day with the white clouds flying,
And the flung spray and the blown spume, and the sea-gulls crying.
I must go down to the seas again, to the vagrant gypsy life,
To the gull's way and the whale's way, where the wind's like a whetted knife;
And all I ask is a merry yarn from a laughing fellow-rover,
And quiet sleep and a sweet dream when the long trick's over.

No single issue happens in a vacuum. So often, we think in our silos to solve problems, but this only puts a bandaid on the issue. We must push ourselves to think about systemic issues as an intricate puzzle, with each problem a single piece interconnecting with another issue. It's only when we look at the whole puzzle that we'll be able to confront each individual problem.
A quality education is the key to uplifting any person, or group. It is essential that we continue to improve our public school system from the bottom up, starting with pre-k and working up to higher education.
Most Recent Bills > Socio-Emot. Learning, Comm. Schools
Every person, community, and neighborhood deserves a healthy environment to raise a family. While pushing policies like the Green New Deal, we can also provide thousands of good paying jobs in clean energy.
Most Recent Bills > Green New Deal Act, Clean Drinking Water
Health Care
We must increase coverage, support small businesses, expand primary care, and lower premiums. Medicare for All is the next step toward addressing inequalities. In 2018, Medicaid Expansion passed allowing over 230,000 people to gain coverage here in Virginia.
Most Recent Bills >
Short-term Health Insurance Plans
I made a pledge to campaign free from special interest donations so that I can support, uplift, and show how powerful our grassroot networks are. While I was the first elected to take this pledge, VA is now covered in elected officials who have taken similar pledges.
Most Recent Bills > The Refund Act, Restoring Rep. Govt.
Voter Access
It should not be difficult to exercise your right to vote. In order for your voice to be heard, I believe it is my duty to expand and make it easier to vote. This includes longer voting hours, and no - absentee voting.
Most Recent Bills > Vote By Mail, Early Voting, Expanding Voting Age
Gun Violence
There are nearly 13,000 gun homicides a year in the US. Marginalized and minority groups are regularly inflicted by this systemic issue and have been left powerless. To protect our vulnerable communities, VA must implement a comprehensive gun violence prevention plan
Most Recent Bills > Public Entities Protection
Women's Rights
Women are crucial to driving innovation, growth, & prosperity in our country. Too many people face discrimination and we must take every opportunity to stand up and fight for equality. I support women's right to choose, any measure to close the gender pay gap, & the Equal Rights Amendment.
Most Recent Bills > Equal Rights Amendment
To improve the economic well-being & quality of life for our VA communities we have to lay the groundwork for multilateral policies. We must recognize the role of early childhood education, criminal justice reform, neighborhood desegregation, and economic diversification has on our overall success.
Most Recent Bills > Green New Deal, Blockchain Tech.
LGBTQ & Minority
We have made great gains recently, but the fight is not over. We must continue to make progress toward equal rights for all. I will advocate to preserve and expand protections and end harmful practices that disproportionately affect the LGBTQ & Minority communities.

Facebook has always been our favourite channel of promotion. They are still at the top of the list and there is no doubt why. They started from a basic "connect with your friends" site and now they are a billion dollar company. With acquisition of Whatsapp and Instagram they only built a stronger base.
On another note, it's basic to understand that every platform has a different objective and it makes its followers adapt accordingly. No individual has the exact same set of friends or followers on all platforms. In the end all platforms are achieving one goal & that is; broadcasting your message.
Always known for breaking barriers and new innovations; Facebook was criticized for releasing a Snapchat look alike feature. We personally spent some time on the Facebook stories & tried to see how that could be beneficial for brands in the future.
It is also more about the type of message and not so much about the platform where you're posting because of the difference in your audience per platform. Maybe that's why Facebook releasing a Snapchat feature is really not that big a deal.
We've added the features (not very different) of Facebook Stories that should be easy for all to understand;
- Facebook stories can be easily spotted on the top of the news feed
- To create your own story you can either click on the icon 'Your Story' (that appears along with other stories from your friends) or you can simply swipe right.
- There is nothing new about the process of posting a story. This feature is exactly the same like Snapchat, Instagram or Whatsapp
- Unlike other platforms; Facebook gives you a lot of filters & skins to choose before you begin to make your story. You can't add any Emojis or stickers (yet!)
- Video time has been extended to 20 seconds unlike 15 seconds on Instagram.
- Like any other story; Facebook story will stay up for 24 hours.
The only highlight feature right now is the filters & skins. But honestly, this could do wonders for brands. We'll explain you how.
Firstly, Facebook is the only platform that has an advertising advantage over other social networking sites. We just need to wait for Facebook to expand this to stories. While Facebook figures how to & when to do this you can check our views on what is in it for brands & how can they make the most of this.
- Brands will be able to create non edited original images & videos directly from a mobile device therefore reducing the cost of content creation drastically
- Through promotion of one story a brand can create & subsequently share a lot of information with their target audience
- Does this mean the end of Facebook live videos? Could be.
- This will be a good advertising push for Facebook & Brands because no other platform currently offers such a feature.
Facebook might be late in creating this feature but they might be the first to offer something more to brands. After all they have a large database & a strong advertising method.

Book Blog Walkers: Weekly Check-in Sept 12 2014
Hey Book Blog Walkers! It is time for your weekly check-in! How are you doing this week? Did you get a day, 2 days, 3 days of walking (or other exercise)? I am so very proud of you for making the effort to get heart healthy and putting exercise in your life. We can do it! Even if it is one step at a time 🙂
This week was good for me! I have been put on limited exercise meaning I can't do anything to intense for to long. However, I have been given the greenlight to do 15 min of walking every hour so I have been doing it. Save for one day I hit my 6000 step goal and then some! So while I am not getting my exercise in the way I am used to, I am going for #noexcuses . This is my 2nd week of Weight Watchers. The first week I lost 3lbs and the 2nd week I lost none. So I am going to look back at my journal and see what foods might have tripped me up. It is a learning process to figure out what works for my thyroid and what doesn't but I am determined. I think I am going to have to go on an 85% Paleo type of eating pattern. I tend to do better with more natural food in my diet than yogurts (and that type) of food. Even though calorie wise they are pretty equal. Eat and learn 🙂
So how are y'all doing? Check in and let me know!

Fitness Together® Client Review Tracy Simpson*
Achievements : Tracy lost 50 lbs and dropped six dress sizes. Tracy completed the Tough Mudder challenge last spring, a grueling 10-mile military-style challenge.
Tracy first came to Fitness Together to lose weight. "After having two children, I was having a challenging time shedding the pounds on my own after many failed attempts over 3 years. Fitness Together has helped me to get my life back! I have more energy, more fun and can keep up with my kids. I lead a more active lifestyle now and have incorporated fitness into my daily routine. It's not something I dread doing anymore, and actually have come to enjoy my sessions and look forward to coming in and rocking out to Bruce Springsteen while doing my cardiovascular exercise! Investing in yourself and taking time to improve your physical well being is something that many people undervalue with their busy lives, but you only get one body and you need to take care of it. Since joining Fitness Together, I have come to learn that the benefits far outweigh the costs. I am in the best shape I have ever been in my life - and not just physically. My overall outlook is much more positive and I have more confidence."

BETHEL — Selectmen will learn Monday that the state wants to replace decking on a bridge that carries routes 2, 5 and 26 traffic over Railroad Street. Their meeting is scheduled for 7 p.m.
They will also discuss advertising for people to be on a committee to develop a regional wind power ordinance, and possibly increasing parking at the popular Davis Park along Route 26 and the Androscoggin River.
The Maine Department of Transportation has scheduled a public meeting for 6 p.m. Tuesday, June 8, at the Bethel town hall at 19 Main St., to discuss future plans for the bridge. Representatives from MDOT are also seeking comments, concerns and suggestions from the public, and are expected to answer any questions about the project.
Concerned that Bethel doesn't have any ordinances to regulate wind power development, Town Manager Jim Doar has asked selectmen to OK advertising to seek people who can be appointed no later than June 21 to a multitown ad hoc committee.
That came out of the second of two meetings this spring between Bethel, Greenwood and Newry officials who believe that such a committee could develop a common ordinance tailored toward specific town needs that could then be adopted separately by each town at town meetings, enabling local control.
In a memo to selectmen, Doar stated that the group decided that the best way to develop an ordinance is to ask selectmen in each of the three towns to appoint three people from each town to an ad hoc committee.
On the parking issue, Doar said he would like selectmen to consider shortening the pathway from where it begins at Davis Park playground to where the Porta Potties are currently located, and filling the area where the paved pathway is now.
In a memo to selectmen for Monday night's meeting, Doar stated that a barrier could be set near the fence separating the playground from the pathway to allow two rows of parking on the parcel with a "driveway" through the center, or a wider separation could be provided that would limit parking to one row, accessed through the same "driveway."
Other agenda items include:
• Possibly approving a letter of support for Black Mountain's pursuit of a grant to complete major modifications to Broomhall Stadium to better conform to a competition setup recommended by national and international Nordic ski operations. The resort wants to complete the modifications in time for the 2011 U.S. Cross Country Championship competition in early January that is expected to bring 400 to 500 competitors and Olympians, and to boost the local economy during the weeklong event, Doar said.
• Possibly approving many proposed amendments to the following ordinances: Entertainment; Sewer and Water Use; Traffic, Parking and Pedestrians; Signs; Site Plan Review; and Subdivision of Land.
The board is also expected to execute a warrant for the SAD 44 budget referendum, to approve the annual town meeting warrant and to discuss the town financial report.
A public hearing on the proposed ordinance changes will be held at 7 p.m. Wednesday, May 26, in the town office.

Mashing malted grains is easy - even wheat if done correctly ... BUT ...
I am hoping to find some advice on cereal mashing raw wheat (if it's even necessary).
There is a ton of info on cereal mashing corn, rice, etc. is it the same for wheat?
To avoid the whole cereal mashing thing I have heard that you can use flaked wheat since it is already pre"cooked". Would I still have to use a ratio of malted grain like you would with a cereal mash to acheive proper conversion? Would I have to use special flaked wheat from a homebrewing store (none in my city), or would wheat flakes breakfast cereal do the trick?
I have also heard that plain old flour (like for bread) can be used without cereal mashing. Is this true?
I know this forum is more about beer and less about grain spirits, however the the mashing procedure and equipment is pretty much the same and even with a hobby as exiting and rewarding as all-grain brewing, sometimes we need to broaden our horizon's to maintain that "first kiss" appeal.
a bunch of odd wheat conversion questions for vodka mash

Should We Lose the Lecture?
An atomic physicist makes the case for active learning.
To AN OUTSIDER, the contest at the heart of Carl Wieman's 2009 experiment at the University of British Columbia might have looked laughably lopsided. On one side was a charismatic veteran professor with glowing evaluations and long experience. On the other, a postdoc and a grad student who'd served only as teaching assistants.
Who would do a better job of teaching beginning engineering majors the finer points of electromagnetic waves? Why even ask the question?
But the upstarts had rare qualifications in the academic world, where research — not pedagogy — is the usual coin of the realm. They had trained with Wieman in evidence-based instructional methods designed to make students more engaged with their own learning.
The experiment took place during the 12th week of the semester. While the professor followed the familiar format of a lecture, the postdoc's classes unfolded to a far different script, one predicated on collaboration, practice and feedback. Students broke into small groups to puzzle through problems, with instructors monitoring discussions before electronically collecting answers to gauge comprehension. Then came a short discussion before the cycle repeated with another problem.
'It is really hard to believe the problem when you've been indoctrinated into a system, until you actually test it yourself.'
The results — published in 2011 in Science — were all but a knockout. The postdoc-grad student team saw better attendance, strong reviews and, most impressively, a wholesale jump in performance. Their class did twice as well as the professor's on a 12-question multiple-choice test at the end of the week. And it wasn't just the top or bottom performers who benefited; the entire distribution of scores was higher.
"I wasn't expecting that," says Wieman, PhD '77, sitting in his office in the Stanford physics department. "I don't think anyone was."
It was the extent of the rout that surprised Wieman, not who won. For years, Wieman has called for professors to change how they teach the so-called STEM courses — the science, technology, engineering and math classes that weed out so many students even as society demands ever greater proficiency in those subjects.
The long science lecture may have made excellent sense once upon a time, Wieman says. But its continued popularity defies decades of findings from cognitive science, not the least of which show our severely limited capacity to retain the volume of information regularly thrown from the lectern.
Indeed, using the traditional hour-long lecture to teach science, he says with characteristic frankness, is like relying on medieval medicine while boxes of antibiotics abound. "It's the pedagogical equivalent of bloodletting," he says.
The Proof
A renowned atomic physicist, Wieman — who returned in 2013 to Stanford, where he holds appointments in the physics department and the Graduate School of Education as well as an endowed chair in engineering — is far from the only voice to call for reform. Nor is the University of British Columbia study the only evidence.
Perhaps most exhaustively, a 2014 meta-analysis led by Scott Freeman, a biologist at the University of Washington, analyzed 225 studies and found that students in STEM lecture courses were 1.5 times more likely to fail than those in courses using "active learning," as the teaching style featured in Wieman's experiment is broadly called.
But perhaps no one has so doggedly pursued reform from so many angles as Wieman. He has founded institutes at the University of Colorado and in British Columbia to research and to train instructors; created interactive online physics simulations used around the world; pushed the matter in Washington, D.C., where he was associate director for science in the White House Office of Science and Technology Policy; and generally evangelized to — occasionally — great effect.
Many of the world's great scientists had been teaching with scant evidence to support their methods, something they'd never tolerate in their research.
Peter LePage, former dean of Cornell's College of Arts and Sciences, credits Wieman — his housemate during their Stanford days — for providing not just the "why" but the "how" for Cornell's active learning initiative, launched in 2012. By developing ways to train teaching fellows to help professors, Wieman showed him how change could be implemented even in classes with hundreds of students and maxed-out faculty.
"Suddenly, it began to look feasible," says LePage, MS '76, PhD '78. "My realization was, 'I am going to be a negligent dean if I don't find some way to act on this information.' "
The Motivation
It helps in all these endeavors that Wieman's own scientific bona fides are beyond reproach. A Nobel Prize does that.
Wieman got the call from Stockholm in 2001, six years after he and a partner created the world's first Bose-Einstein condensate — an elusive but long-anticipated form of new matter achieved by bringing atoms within a few hundred billionths of a degree of absolute zero.
People often assume it was only then that he landed on education research, a young laureate in search of a second act. But the prize, he says, meant he could get people to finally listen to what he had to say on the topic. (He donated the prize money to physics education at the University of Colorado, where he was a professor from 1984 to 2013.)
Wieman, says Dan Schwartz, the dean of Stanford's Graduate School of Education, has an intellectual "refractory period of zero" — he'll finish a major paper at night, then wake early to work on a book in the morning. And even while he was hot on the trail of physics glory, Wieman toggled between blasting atoms and investigating his new area of interest, one originally inspired by a nagging mystery: Why were his graduate students so unprepared?
On paper many were all-stars, he says, with gilded grades and glowing endorsements. But so many of them arrived at his lab unable to think like physicists. He recalls one particular student who came to personify the concern. He was a phenom with formulas and calculations, but whenever he got stumped in the lab, he'd ask where he could read how to solve it.
"The point is that there wasn't a place to read how to solve it. That's what physics research is about," Wieman says.
'I always try and tell students they shouldn't let courses get in the way of getting a good education.'
And yet after spending a few years working in his lab, students usually developed into productive scientists. Wieman began to wonder if it was just a matter of maturity. Perhaps his students' brains had to emerge from a 17-year chrysalis stage before transforming into physicist butterflies.
But as a committed experimentalist, Wieman wasn't content with conjecture. He began immersing himself in existing education research and carrying out his own, tapping into a growing body of work exposing the weaknesses of science education.
In a watershed paper, David Hestenes, a professor at Arizona State University, described a simple test given to thousands of undergrads that revealed most were leaving their introductory physics courses almost as ignorant of the fundamentals of the subject as when they arrived. Many made similar discoveries using their own students, including Eric Mazur, a physicist at Harvard who would become another leading voice for change.
In Wieman's own research, he and a colleague would present "a nonobvious fact" in a lecture along with an illustration, then quiz the students a short while later. In one instance, they brought in a violin to demonstrate that its strings do not move enough air to create the instrument's sound. Rather, the strings make the back of the violin move, which in turn produces the sound we hear. Fifteen minutes later, only 10 percent of the class could recall this fact on a multiple-choice question.
Concerned it was just a reflection on his students, he repeated similar experiments with leading faculty. The result was essentially identical: around 10 percent.
"It is really hard to believe the problem when you've been indoctrinated into a system, until you actually test it yourself," Wieman says.
The Scientific Method
The repeated findings underscored an irony. Many of the world's great scientists had been teaching with scant evidence to support their methods, something they'd never tolerate in their research. A small percentage of students might flourish, often because of motivation to work on their own. But an alarming number were getting only the most superficial understanding, at a steep cost not just to their own education but to the general scientific literacy of society.
Ultimately, Wieman would come to understand that his grad students evolved into scientists in his lab not out of maturity but because they were practicing science and reckoning with its concepts as they never had before, creating their own understanding rather than parroting what they'd learned. And that was the power of active learning. With homework, students could learn the basics of new material on their own. With practice and feedback in class, they would wrestle with and come to master it.
"It's just not how the brain learns," he says. "It does not learn to do these things by watching someone write on a chalkboard or by listening to them talk."
Professors retain a central role, but Wieman sees them more like athletic coaches, putting students through strenuous, targeted practice while giving immediate feedback and direction based on performance. By confronting the problems first, the audience is more invested — and prepared — to hear what the professor has to say.
"If you experience the condition of the problem, you'll remember the answer much better," Schwartz, the dean of the GSE, says. "Lectures have it backwards. They basically give you the answer, then you practice it."
Still, not everybody is convinced. Wieman's eldest brother, a fellow physicist, remains fairly certain he was well-served by his lecture-based education, Wieman says. "As I keep telling him, he probably would have learned better if he had done other things," he says. "It's really hard to look back and say, 'Oh, I'm not nearly as good as I could have been.'"
Indeed, one of the challenges of converting professors to active learning is convincing them of the flaws of a system in which they prospered. "It worked for me" is a common refrain, says Wieman's wife, Sarah Gilbert, a fellow physicist and collaborator who is a senior adviser at the Carl Wieman Science Education Initiative at the University of British Columbia.
The Effect
Wieman himself never had that problem, in part because lectures never worked for him. In fact, he spent most of his undergraduate days at MIT intentionally avoiding them.
Wieman arrived at the school in 1969 with a significant case of culture shock after having grown up in the backwoods of Oregon. Though his grandfather had been an influential theologian, his parents had sought a much different life. Until middle school, when the family moved to Corvallis, Wieman lived the country life of a sawyer's son, close to a logging mill but miles from the nearest store or paved road.
He wasted no time getting stuck in to life in Boston, his knack for relentless focus immediately evident on the squash court. Having never heard of the sport before he arrived, he worked his way onto the intercollegiate freshman team, where he was good enough, he says, to lose to some of the best players in the country before ruining his elbow hurling himself about. He then retrained himself with his left hand and played at a similar level.
His most meaningful experiences, meanwhile, were in the lab. Early on, a professor suggested he get involved in research, where his appetite for work and the departure of an upperclassman led to his running his own lab by the summer of his sophomore year. For a while, he even gave up his apartment to live in the lab, since it didn't make sense to pay rent for a place he never stayed.
'With active learning, everybody is engaged and everybody is asking questions all the time, and it's totally out of your control,' says Professor Persis Drell, the new provost. 'You just have to have some confidence you can make this work.'
At first, he diligently attended lectures. But there seemed to be little payoff. "The positive experience I was having in the lab, the authentic experience of doing physics, made it so clear how much of the coursework was not authentic," he says.
The political upheaval of the time was then causing havoc at MIT, as at other campuses. To Wieman's great relief, finals were canceled in the second semester of his freshman year. And in the changing atmosphere of the day, Wieman blazed a path that required precious little class time, confident he wasn't missing out.
In some ways, Wieman was the opposite of the student who would come to perplex him decades later. He was much weaker than many of his peers in formal problem-solving, but had a much better grasp of fundamentals and an absolute comfort trying to figure things out on his own.
Occasionally he reassures students who are having a hard time with differential equations. "I took it and dropped it three times, and I never completed it," he says. "I always try and tell students they shouldn't let courses get in the way of getting a good education."
Though his college background reads like foreshadowing in retrospect, Wieman says his embrace of active teaching is foremost about the powerful and widely available data and research showing the effectiveness of this method. And while change has occurred in many places, it frustrates him that the lecture system remains entrenched in many, if not most, departments.
Indeed, the benefits of active learning are so plain, it might even be unethical to re-create the British Columbia experiment today — you'd be denying a control group the advantages of superior learning. And yet, in their classrooms, many professors lecture as they like. "It's a funny situation," Wieman says.
The reason professors resist converting their classrooms appears to have less to do with any ideological interest in defending lectures than with the inertia inherent in a decentralized system where research, not teaching, has absolute primacy in making or breaking careers and reputations. And as with everything, change is scary, especially if you've never been trained in it.
"When you are lecturing and you have your notes and you know what you're going to say and the students are dutifully writing away, you are in total control of the situation," says Stanford Provost Persis Drell, a convert to active learning who is co-teaching with Wieman during winter quarter. "With active learning, everybody is engaged and everybody is asking questions all the time, and it's totally out of your control.
"You just have to have some confidence you can make this work."
Wieman's presence at Stanford is helping move along the change for professors like Drell — those who are way too busy to veer very far from their responsibilities to get up to speed. Wieman, she says, is incredibly generous with his time for those interested in making the change.
Sarah Church, a physics professor who is senior associate vice provost for undergraduate education, is among those who have tapped Wieman's expertise. Deeply unhappy with lecturing — she could see her students getting lost with no way to catch up — Church consulted with Wieman to convert her electricity and magnetism course into an active classroom.
It was a lot of work. But she was soon convinced that she'd made the right decision. Church describes an instance in which she asked groups to go to the whiteboards to draw configurations in which Gauss's Law — one of the fundamental laws of electromagnetism — could be applied.
Some made quick work of the question yet pushed on, turning the query around to focus on systems in which the law can't be used and asking why. "They were drawing electric field lines and asking questions: 'What's the difference? What's missing?' You could give them an activity and they would just run with it and come up with their own questions, which demonstrated to me they were really engaging with the material on a level they just don't if you're lecturing."
The end-of-term results were stark. Average attendance rose from about 60 percent to close to 100 percent, teaching evaluations improved, and learning gains jumped — "the best I've had," she says. "It was a much more rewarding teaching experience for me."
Beats bloodletting.•

Notes From the Deluged Migrant Caravan in Tijuana
Here's my piece for the OC Weekly. It's black valentine to the journalists and photographers still there. It's asks for a little less money-shot fixation, a little more compassion. Sometimes, journalism is used as a shield. So you won't have to think about the babies sleeping on the ground in the cold without formula.

The purpose of our work is to reflect the quality of light in all people, through the buildings and public spaces of our cities.
Who we are
We come together from architecture, industrial design, lighting, technology, music, fine art, media, and finance to design and deliver luminous art. We are artists, architects, designers, curators, animators, project & production managers, accountants, musicians, film editors, cinematographers and software developers.
What we do
We make art with light. We create large-scale luminous and digital artworks for architectural facades, city precincts, commercial spaces. We combine light, sculpture, digital media and interactive technology to create works for architectural projects and public spaces.
We believe great works are born from respectful and collaborative relationships. We also believe that the inspiration already exists within a project and our job is to unveil and nurture the work to life. Each artwork is innovative, sustainable and designed to engage communities in contributing to their public environments and ultimately reflect the light in all people. Ramus seeks to bring people, cities and cultures together through the communication and connection of light.
Light by its nature is a reflection.
We are committed to reflecting the true nature of people, how we engage and connect with one another, the built environment and the natural world.
We value people as the beginning, middle and end of our work – whether they are suppliers, clients and the public. The quality of our relationships within Ramus and how we care for and respect each person's contribution to the whole is paramount in how we continue to reflect the light and true nature of all people.

Building 57 (Church)
Students at the Intermountain Indian School were required to attend church - although it could be any church they wanted. (No, the Native American Church was not an option.)
The Catholic church, St. Henry's, was a nearby option. The church has remained open since Intermountain's closure and is still in use today.
Several students have recounted how they selected their church - by carefully weighing who had the best treats and activities.

News has come out that the new owners of the 19th Century Club property on Union Avenue may intend to raze the building. The utilities have been pulled from it, which usually indicates demolition will occur.
Many of us remember the Hill mansion on Union which was demolished in 1978 and a loss to Memphis history. The restaurant that replaced it ended up going out of business within a year after it was boycotted.
Memphis Heritage is alarmed and wants to prevent another such occurrence. They recommend contacting Midtown Action Coalition, Midtown Memphis Development Corp, Memphis Heritage, Central Gardens and other organizations. You can also write to the owners:

This process has proven procedures for overcoming rage, fear, depression, remorse and feelings of apprehension and helps you gain self-assurance, peace and happiness. Time to say enough is enough. You can't live your life in fear anymore – it's time to change.
Risk Factors & Causes for Wiccaphobia
The root cause of Witch Phobia is often (but not always) traumatic incident in the past. The fear can be manufactured by the brain, in some circumstances, with seemingly no foundation. The key is digging down to the source and replacing negative associations with more positive emotions. Those most at risk are:
• Those who have a general predisposition for fear and anxiety
• People characterized as skittish, energetic, easily upset, nervous
• People suffering from adrenal insufficiency

Indicators That You Need Assistance
Use our 2 minute Witch Phobia Online Analysis to discover the magnitude of the problem for you, but it is pretty simple. The time to act is now, if this phobia is causing negativity in your life.
- By simply thinking about Witches Or Witchcraft, do you become woozy?
- Does it trigger a dry mouth and clammy hands?
- Does your heart begin to pound?
- Do your legs feel as if they will give way?
These are only a few examples of the things one can feel. Read more on the symptoms of witch phobia.
Not only do we deal with the symptoms, we locate the foundation. That's why we're here
Drugs and Prescriptions
We strongly believe that drugs are not a good solution for any Wiccaphobe, but you should always follow your physician's advice with regard to drugs/meds and Witch Phobia. A pill can sometimes act as a quick fix and may seem to help briefly but will not allow you to be free of the fear.
No drug has ever been developed specifically for Witch Phobia, by the way – and with all the undetermined possible side effects, it is difficult to rationalize taking a prescription as the answer.
The good news is with our system you will vanquish your Witch Phobia, without drugs..
