Revisiting Founding Principles
Since its founding, learning, growth, and a capacity for navigating change have been at the center of the LREI experience. For LREI founder Elisabeth Irwin, this forward-looking orientation was grounded both in a deep respect for children and for communities that learn together, and in a set of guiding progressive principles. As an experimental school, the goal was not simply to be different or to pursue change for change's sake, but rather to engage thoughtfully with the world and with each other in the service of growth and progress. As Irwin observed:
The school will not always be just what it is now, but we hope it will always be a place where ideas can grow, where heresy will be looked upon as possible truth, and where prejudice will dwindle from lack of room to grow. We hope it will be a place where freedom will lead to judgment—where ideals, year after year, are outgrown like last season's coat for larger ones to take their places.
We thought that it would be interesting to highlight three of these foundational principles and explore how students and teachers in our current program experience them. We will examine how a deep understanding of the whole child and the value of the school-family partnership is at the center of the Lower School Home Visits program, which is an important part of the Fours curriculum. In the Middle School, we connect the school's longstanding commitment to integrated curricula and project-based work to this year's pilot of "Big Time," which created extended half-day long blocks for learning. Finally, we report on the inaugural High School Eleventh Grade Trip, which focused on the challenges and opportunities faced by our nation's cities and sent teams of students and faculty to six locations. This trip affirmed the value of the school's original activity curriculum, which pioneered the use of field trips to narrow the distance between the classroom and the world, and the essential value of student-centered and student-led experience. These three examples, along with most other aspects of the LREI program, are aligned with the foundational idea expressed by Agnes De Lima in the 1942 book The Little Red School House that:
the general education aim . . . will be achieved, not through a routine process of instruction, but through a series of experiences, which will awaken the interest in the children and develop a facility for meeting individual and social situations… We believed in the beginning as we still do that children can be happy in school, that education must be thought of in terms of growth and comes by experiencing rather than by mere learning, and that life does not begin when school ends but rather, as John Dewey says, that "school is life." (pp. 3 and 5)
The Fours Home Visits Program
A 1913 New York Times article about Elisabeth Irwin describes how she, "went to the homes of many children and, through her presence and counsel, brought about between parents and school authorities a better mutual understanding with regard to the needs and natures of individual pupils."
And as Agnes De Lima writes:
Our teachers often visit their children's homes and thus establish a warm and intimate relationship with them. A feeling of trust and confidence grows up. Parents know not only how their own children are getting on in school but how other children of the same age progress. The teacher also becomes aware of the special conditions which are affecting the child at home; where there are problems she is often asked to lend a hand in solving them. (p. 9)
The cultivation of these important relationships with families is still a hallmark of the LREI experience, but the concept of home visits has been expanded to include the students themselves in the process. In this way, the idea of building connections with families is married both to the practice of field trips, which was another learning method pioneered by Irwin and her colleagues, and a student-centered/led experience.
Beginning in November and continuing over the course of several weeks as part of the Family Study unit, each member of the Fours classes leads a field trip to visit their neighborhood and home. For these visits, small groups (five to six children) take trips to each other's homes during the school day. These are not playdates, but rather a chance for children to learn about and appreciate the different families and home lives found in our community. While the home visits offer a unique opportunity for each child to feel valued, they also illustrate the commonalities in our families (they love and care for each other) and the differences (families can have different grown-ups and children, and eat different foods). With support and planning from their teacher, each child prepares to be a host and guide. Children show their classmates special parts of their neighborhood and the meaningful aspects of their home.
As Fours teacher Beth Binnard observes:
The host child shows the other children how to get to the home (teachers know of course) and what are the important aspects to their life at home (sometimes it's a toothbrush, sometimes a stuffed animal, sometimes a book or toy). It's very powerful to see a child in this light, and it's equally powerful for the other students to see the host child in this way, even if they can't fully articulate this insight.
While on the visit, students spend time drawing pictures of things they notice and gather information about elements common to each visit (mode of transportation, floor number, neighborhood in the city, etc.). This work continues back in the classroom as the children discuss observations, share pictures, analyze data and write about significant aspects of their visits.
These visits are meaningful to both children and adults. They affirm the idea that when children are able to share aspects of their home life with classmates, the experience itself generates opportunities for deeper learning and understanding. The Home Visits also play a huge role in connecting the children as a community of learners. A child with separated parents goes on a home visit to another child with separated parents. Each student visits a home in a different borough at least once as well as different neighborhoods from their own. Children also compare and connect to the modes of transportation they use to get to school.
The visits also generate valuable insights for the teacher who is then able to draw on them to support the growth of each student. As Beth notes, the visits allow her:
to see each host child in a totally different light. The Home Visits give the unique opportunity for the child who is quiet, shy, and reserved in school to really shine and be brave and take on a leadership role. I've had a few students who present as sort of "tough" or "aggressive" at school, and yet on the Home Visits, we see that they still sleep with their baby blankets, or have a special art table where they do watercolors, or sometimes have nightmares and need to sleep in their parents' bed. It makes me realize even more than I already know, that all of my students don't fit into just "one category." I've found that having a deeper understanding of the students helps me to make stronger connections to school. It can be as simple as a book, for example, "I saw you have all the Peter Rabbit books at home, and we have some of the same ones," or something like that. A student may be having a hard time with separation, and I learn on the Home Visit that they love Oobleck, so we'll have Oobleck in class. Things like that.
Most importantly, the visits are transformative for the students. Again from Beth:
Home Visits are empowering for each student. Even if they're not able to articulate it, each child on some level feels "Wow, I'm important enough to have a whole field trip just about me." I think the visits really boost their confidence. They realize how lucky they are. They get to feel comfortable traveling around the city without their parents (this is a powerful learning opportunity for parents too!), they find meaningful (in the minds of 4- and 5-year olds) connections with each other, and they make new friendships that didn't exist before the visits.
These journeys are integral to achieving our progressive mission and our diversity mission, allowing students to examine lives that they will never live through first-hand experience, our youngest students as participants in the most essential components of Elisabeth Irwin's experiment.
Middle School Big Time
In developing the school's original pedagogical methods (to support learning, Irwin and her colleagues saw immense value in work that connected ideas across subjects and that was framed by authentic inquiry in the service of meaningful projects undertaken by students. As Agnes De Limas notes:
We prefer to think of a curriculum not in terms of subject matter at all but rather in terms of experiences and activities. We assume the responsibility of seeing that before the child enters high school he shall have acquired the ordinary tools of learning and that we must help him to acquire them according to the best methods available. . . . We are, then, concerned in our curriculum to make sure that it affords the kind of experiences and the kinds of activities which will help children to grow normally and naturally. The old-line pedagogue was continually asking, What must a child know, what knowledge is of most worth? We ask instead, What should a child be like, what ways of acting and what habits of response are most worth while?" (pps. 16-17)
A collection of some of the essential questions generated by the middle school team as part of the process that led to the development of the BIg Time pilot:
A brief overview of the 2014 Innovation Institute that explored creative uses of time and from which the initial idea for Big Time emerged:
What follows are a collection of reflections from students and faculty on the value and challenges of the Big Time experiment:
I enjoyed having more time to work on things I needed more time on.
Maybe have it for a full day activity once a month
I think that big time worked well when the whole grade had a big project that we all had to work on. It was really helpful because it gave us a lot more time to work on projects.
I love big time! It's really fun because now kids are leading them, and we always have fun. The only thing that could be better is that maybe kids could always lead them.
I like that we can be really creative and come up with really cool ideas. We can make interesting projects. Sometimes I don't want to miss class though.
Big Time can be hard because I can't focus on one thing for that long.
I like Big Time because it gives us time to learn more about the stuff we don't know about. It's also really cool when students run it because you get to watch your friends teach you!
I like Big Time. It gives everyone a time to work hard for a long time and get a lot of work done.
Learning Specialist Robin Shepard:
We saw kids over and over again learning from each other, creating peer groups (sometimes new and unexpected ones), and forming loosely organized groups that facilitated learning. After a few months, students were better at self-organizing and less and less structure was imposed. It was great to see them also develop their own language to explain what they learned. We heard kids say to peers things like: "But we didn't finish this part; We should do it this way; What if…" It was easier for some kids to say to a peer, "Wait, I don't get it," than it was to say that to a teacher. There were more opportunities for reflective questioning coming from the kids not just the teachers, which led to more varied interpretations for kids to ponder.
Librarian Jennifer Hubert Swan:
As a middle school librarian who has to meet the reading and research needs of students across four grade levels, Big Time has been a salvation and a delight. It creates a consistent, weekly opportunity for me to collaborate with colleagues and support student work with library resources. Each week I can join any grade level team that is using the time to work on a large project and either lend my assistance or co-teach a mini research lesson or refresher.
Math teacher Michelle Boehm:
Having an extended period of time gave students the "brain space" to process and apply information. Students seem to feel more relaxed and curious about the work, and in feeling less pressed they were more inclined to ask the "what if" questions which sometimes led to a deeper exploration of an idea. There was also room for additional trial and error and Students were able to get feedback (from both peers and teachers) and make revisions in a timely manner. It was invaluable for students to see teachers from different disciplines working together to help them with their goals. Students also saw teachers as learners during Big Time and teachers were a bit more willing to take a risk and try a new activity knowing that colleagues were there to help execute and offer feedback.
Humanities Teacher Sara-Momii Roberts:
For the Eighth Grade Social Justice Project, students could dig into their topics, make phone calls and conduct interviews, go out of the building without the complication of scheduling these visits during other classes. Often, the creative process, the learning process, take stumbles and mental breaks and wrong turns and some wasted time. In the end, with longer periods dedicated to working on a particular project, students get to a better answer, a more creative result, and take a deeper dive into the learning. For many students doing this sustained work is hard. It's also tricky for teachers to help steer the process and support extended focus on particular things. In many ways, extended periods go against modern day social interaction and ways of life. We don't focus for long periods. Everything is quick and ready. So, helping students train themselves to do this is an important process.
Humanities teacher Sarah Barlow:
It helped to make interdisciplinary projects work, as teachers have time available to collaborate. For kids, It gives them longer periods to allow their creative and critical brains to latch on and engage in something rather than having fractured periods where they have to switch gears for each one.
Humanities teacher Dave Edson:
The extra time allows more wiggle room for differentiated learning, it allows for quieter students to get comfortable and step into leadership positions. Overall, the biggest benefit of extra time may be using the time to allow for more authentic student driven work, questions, and discoveries. This in turn allows for the work to be more creative and personal while working on their stamina and group work skills. I think it's important to note that while Big Time is a longer than normal class period, what the students are being asked to do is often under a huge time constraint (in a positive way), it's just that we're tackling a bigger project. One Big Time approach has been to learn about something new or make a connection, make something with a new group of students, and share with the whole group. This means though that the clock is always ticking and students need to find agreement with each other and discover and implement smart, efficient ways of making their learning visible.
The middle school team is already at work thinking about what they learned from this year and iterating on the design of Big Time for next year. This focus on continually re-engaging the problem and taking smart risks is probably the most important aspect of this work and it is the one that aligns most closely with what students are asked to do each day in class. As Dave Edson observes,
Doing this work is sophisticated and just plain hard. This being said, nothing is perfect, nor does it need to be. There is some value in students planning for each other and then trying to figure out what to do when things don't go according to plan, for good or bad. While teachers can provide a kind of template/outline for each other and for student led Big Time, ideally the whole experience still feels very worthwhile, even in its imperfections.
The Eleventh Grade Trip
In the spring of 2015, and stemming from LREI's strategic plan LREI Director Phil Kassen posed two important questions to the high school faculty?
How might we create a weeklong overnight trip for our eleventh graders that is mission aligned, open to all, and embedded in the curriculum?
What if the entire junior class traveled to the city of Detroit and used the city as a lens to explore and learn about the challenges and opportunities of the modern urban city in transition?
While these were both questions of the moment, they were born out of LREI's longstanding relationship with the field trip as an important tool for creating experience and opportunities for learning. As articulated by Agnes De Lima in The Little Red School House:
They need challenging tasks . . . . They are cramped by the four walls of the classroom and eager to explore the world beyond . . . . They enjoy the unexpected; it offers a test of their ability to deal with a situation. From our earliest days, trips have been an essential part of our school program; the curriculum is built around the children's explorations of the world. We have referred also to the necessity on the teacher's part of careful planning for these trips and the development of a technique which will insure safety, avoid strain and fatigue, and make certain that the children get all there is to be got from the excursion. No trip must be taken without long preparation. (pp. 95-96 & 153)
And as LREI Teacher Norman Studer also in The Little Red School House observes:
The usual trips for [high school] pupils have been to libraries and museums, worthy enough places but nevertheless repositories of embalmed culture. They do not afford the intellectual and emotional stimulation that comes from contact with the living book of man's everyday life. . . . The Little Red School House has attempted to tear down the walls of the classroom and bring the adolescent child into direct contact with the community. . . . The most important outcome of all comes in terms of personality growth directly traceable to these trips. Children notoriously lacking in serious interests suddenly become interested in social problems. A feeling of kinship with people totally different began to develop. Their trips not only caused them to have an understanding of people but gave them the stimulus to do something about it. (pp. 158-160)
In response to Phil's call to action, a planning team of interested high school faculty members was formed. The group enthusiastically jumped into the work of exploring Detroit as a destination, but also began to explore other possible cities. During this process, team members noted that the inquiry being carried out by the teachers would likely be work in which students could be productively engaged. That is, the adults should not debate the potential for learning by visiting various cities, reach consensus on a destination, prepare an itinerary and learning goals and then present this to the students as a fait accompli. This must be the work of the students, carried out with the support of their teachers. The group agreed, but also understood that going down this path invited a much higher degree of risk. Would the students be up to the task? Would they be able to meet the very real deadlines to ensure that there would, in fact, be a trip? High School Dean of Academics Allison Isbell was not fazed by these challenges. "This junior class is unbelievably strong, with many outstanding students and leaders," Allison shared. "We knew they would have compelling ideas."
Pivoting towards this new idea of a student designed experience, the team devised a series of trip labs for the fall. These labs created time and space for the eleventh graders to give voice to the important social issues that they saw as impacting their world and our nation's cities. Then through a process involving brainstorming, research, debate, presentation, and consensus building, the students were called on to arrive at a set of organizing issues around which trips to one or more cities would be designed. Underlying this process was a project mission statement developed by trip coordinators Allison Isbell and Chris Keimig that stated:
Understanding one's relationship to–and capacity to have an impact on–the most pressing challenges facing our society is a necessarily dynamic process. Thus, the best places to engage in this work are in places that are themselves dynamic–places that are in transition, that are working to change, adapt, and transform themselves for survival in a changing world. It is our purpose and mission at LREI to graduate citizens who are ready to engage in shaping their own communities, who believe in their capacity to affect change for the future, and who know that they can and should be a part of that process. We believe the time spent observing, learning about, and working alongside communities in transition is essential to cultivating these qualities in our students.
Later in the fall, the eleventh grade class gathered in the high school auditorium where eighteen pairs of students presented topics to their classmates. As the presentations unfolded, some students preferred their peers' ideas and, in real time, dismissed their own. Then, employing flexible thinking, groups partnered with each other and created coalition-building opportunities around common goals. Eighteen teams were narrowed to ten, and then, through a survey process, to a final six, each to become the core focus of a trip comprised of 10-12 students. The six framing issues were:
- Refugee resettlement
- Sustainability and climate change
- Farm workers' rights
- Educational equity
- Mass incarceration and criminal justice
- Urban revitalization
The issues identified, each team was then tasked with the challenge of developing an essential question to guide their trip and with researching three cities where their issue and its associated opportunities and challenges might be productively explored. Of their three cities, one had to be within driving distance and inquiry in all of their proposed destinations had to connect to both the school's mission and the trip's mission. Each team then presented their ideas to a panel of administrators who after weighing a variety of factors determined the destination city for each group. The final destinations were:
Students and teachers then began the complex task of reaching out to potential partners in their destination cities and developing an itinerary for the trip. In addition, each student took a history elective seminar that addressed in some way the larger themes connected to the trip. Finally, in the early hours of April 25, students and their teacher-mentors left via planes and vans for their various destinations and a week filled with learning. Below is a video produced by the group that traveled to Detroit to explore urban revitalization:
While each group explored different issues connected to different experiences, upon their return, students discovered a number of shared themes that emerged from these diverse experiences:
Stephanie (Justice for Farm Workers):
On the Monday when we got back from the trips, everyone was talking about the trips and even the people who weren't really excited about the trips before we left were super excited. They were sharing a bunch of different stories and anecdotes about things that they learned, things that they saw and things that were unjust. I think that it really brought out hidden things for people. It made our classroom experiences so much richer because we weren't just talking about English; we were making things connections to the trips. We were connecting the material we were learning with the experiences that we had. It was really able to integrate itself into our curriculum.
Tyrell (Equity in Education):
I've been going to LREI for 13 years and the trip definitely fulfilled the mission of the school — what we talk about and what we try to do. After the trip, I started an X-Block class called "Let's Do Something for Social Justice." The trip really motivated me to want to do something — to help make a change in the educational system. It was the best trip that I've been on and the most educational. Going into the trip I was like, "I'm going to change somebody's life." And then they told me that it was place-based learning and I said, "I don't really know what that means." But I realized after the first day that I had learned so much. I didn't use Google once. I learned so much from just being there — experiencing it first hand. It was so great.
This LREI experiment in place-based studies could turn into a progressive education model for other secondary schools as well as colleges and universities. Allison remarks, "This process confirms that progressive pedagogy is alive and thriving in the hands of our students." Chris continues, "This is the most progressive thing I've ever done as a teacher, and that our students have ever done. We took a real risk, and the payoff is going to be life-changing."
What makes these experiences so powerful
While each of these projects provide a valuable window into the driving principles behind the LREI experience, one thing stands out across all three: these projects and their associated student learning and growth would not be possible without the dedicated time, energy and effort of LREI's incredible faculty. Progressive teaching is complicated and demanding, but it is also joyful; and, as Elisabeth Irwin and her colleagues recognized almost one hundred years ago:
Our school, we feel is primarily made up of people, not of, instructors and pupils…. Our teachers are warm and vital human beings primarily concerned with human values and eager to discover with children how best these values may be fostered…. For this reason, we feel that progressive education lives not because of its theories or even its practices but because of the quality and caliber of its teachers. Primarily, of course, such teachers must understand children and be sensitive and responsive to their needs. They must be creative and inventive and resourceful; they must be stimulating, flexible, and fond of adventure…. Each teacher should look forward to the work that lies ahead and backward to what has gone before…. To be sure, each year a given ground should be covered in the academic subjects—adapted to the capacities and maturity of each group. But the program as a whole is constantly changing and emerging, growing out of experiences of the past, adapting to the present needs, and projecting into the future. (pps. 198-199 & 239)
True then and still true today.

Too Busy To Cook?
The story of my life, not sure if I'm too busy or don't like to cook. Either way, having freshly prepared ready to eat meals for the family is a blessing. Now, yes it does cost more than if I went to the store, but I also take in the time to go to the store, figure out what to buy, cook and clean. Well worth the price for me!

Make Joe Wicks' indulgent sticky toffee pudding, taken from his book Cooking For Family and Friends.
1. Place the dates into a large bowl, pour over 175ml of boiling water and leave to stand for a minimum of 30 minutes (you might find that if you have very dry dates they benefit from a further 15 minutes).
2. Preheat your oven to 180°C (fan 160°C/gas mark 4) and line the baking dish with baking parchment.
3. Place the dates and all of the soaking liquid into a food processor. Add 100g of the butter, the golden caster sugar, eggs and treacle. Blitz until pretty much smooth — don't worry if it looks as if the butter and eggs are splitting; it will all come good.
4. Add the bicarbonate of soda and self-raising flour and blitz until you reach a smooth consistency. Tip the batter into the lined baking dish. Spread the batter out so it is fairly even and then slide into the oven and bake for 45 minutes.
5. Place the remaining 90g of butter into a saucepan with the soft light brown sugar and double cream, and bring slowly to the boil while stirring regularly. Boil the sauce for 1 minute, then remove from the heat.
6. When the cake is fully cooked, remove it from the oven and prick it all over with a fork. Pour over about 4 tablespoons of the sauce and spread it over the top of the cake. Let the cake stand for 5 minutes, then remove from the dish, out into squares and serve up with the remaining toffee sauce and ice cream if you really want to push the boat out.
Balance eating healthily and keeping lean with feeding a crowd with million-copy bestseller Joe Wicks' Cooking For Family and Friends.
Featuring more than 100 delicious and nutritious recipes that are perfect for sharing with the special people in your life, this cookbook will help you create delicious family meals that help you stay lean.

Novak Djokovic epic Wimbledon victory over Roger Federer was the most mentally demanding match of his career.
It was the longest men's singles final in Wimbledon history and brought Djokovic his fifth title, now just three behind Federer.
The Serbian and defending champion saved two match points in the fifth set before winning the first deciding tie-break played in singles at the All England Club for a 7-6 (5) 1-6 7-6 (4) 4-6 13-12 (3) victory after four hours and 57 minutes.
In retaining the trophy Djokovic took his grand-slam tally to 16, two short of Rafael Nadal and four off the Swiss great.
"These kind of matches, you work for, you live for," said Djokovic.
"They give sense and they give value to every minute you spend on the court training and working to get yourself in this position and play the match with one of your greatest rivals of all time.
"It was a huge relief in the end, honestly.
"It was probably the mentally most demanding match I was ever part of. I had the most physically demanding match against Nadal in the finals of Australia that went almost six hours. But mentally this was a different level, because of everything.
"I'm just obviously thrilled and overjoyed with emotions to be sitting here in front of you as a winner.
"It was one shot away from losing the match.
"This match had everything.
"It could have gone easily his way.
"In these kind of moments, I just try to never lose self-belief, just stay calm, just focus on trying to get the ball back, return, which wasn't serving me very well today. But, in the most important moments, all three tie-breaks I guess, I found my best game."
In a game that had more plot-twists than a feature length thriller, it was Federer who seemed to be under more pressure in the fifth set.
It was the 37-year-old however who broke serve to lead 8-7 and at 40-15 he held two match points.
The 8-time Champion couldn't convert his chance and Djokovic produced a stunning cross court winner to tie the game at deuce and silence the pro-Federer crowd.
Djokovic who was visibly surprised by the support his semi-final opponent Roberto Bautista Agut had in the final kept his emotions intact, even using the Federer fans as motivation.
"When the crowd is chanting 'Roger' I hear 'Novak'," he said. "It sounds silly, but it is like that. I try to convince myself."
Djokovic went on to claim victory in the Champions tie-break, leaving Federer knowing it was an opportunity missed.

Dear Victoria,
I'm assuming, from your job title, that you make molds. Of faces, say. Or genitalia, perhaps. And from these molds (I'm further assuming) came the prosthetics that contribute to two of the biggest surprises in 21 Jump Street. And this perfectly absurd reimagining of the 80s cop show turns out to be full of surprises. How well Channing Tatum's knucklehead charm translates into comedy; how cleverly the conceit of two narcotics cops going undercover at high school is both embraced and subverted; the unexpected affection it has for its source material. But truly, that nose and that penis--excellent mold work, Victoria. The latter elicited the loudest laugh, and the former provided me the most genuine and pleasant shock I can remember having in a movie theatre. I'd congratulate you further, but I think the pleasure you had while making those molds was probably more rewarding that any praise I can give you.

Los Angeles Dodgers™
8-Bit Color Barrier Limited Edition Poster
The game would never be played the same again.
For Jackie Robinson Day, I wanted to make a commemorative illustration. I don't normally do players, but as I was playing my PS4, I was inspired with this idea. If video games existed back in 1947, it would have been a major impact on how the game looks. MLB The Show works so hard to make the players look life like. I would like to think the game coders would have the same issues.

SANDCITY is a mobile temporary project where I have built sand cities in different locations around the world. Casts of buildings from different places put together compose each Sandcity piece. The approximately twenty different models each stands for a specific country, class or time period. With the sand I construct an image of a city that is big and massive, but at the same time fragile and changeable. The sand and the surrounding speeds the process and makes the historical course of events visible.
The project is talking about the differences between places in a cultural aspect, like the complexity of the mega city Mumbai in India in contrast to the rich environments of the wasteland of Iceland.
The project is a development and research in the arts (r&d) project where I investigated the surrounding and the art contexts influences on the piece.
Images from Mumbai, Iceland and the Architectural Museeum. Small images from Gärdet 2005 (the absolutely first one), Kärradal, Svindersvik, Istanbul/Kilyos and Smedsuddsbadet.

Jeff Derry knew Southwest Colorado could be in for a dangerous fire season as early as last fall.
Derry, executive director of the Center for Snow & Avalanche Studies in Silverton, tracks storms in the San Juan Mountains, usually starting in October.
In a typical year, the center records an average of 12 snowstorms by the end of January. This year, however, the first snowstorms to hit the San Juan Mountains did not happen until January. When the month was over, only three storms had dropped modest amounts of snow in the high country.
"It was obvious that early on we were digging a hole," Derry said. "Then we just never had a chance to get out of it."
For the past few months, Southwest Colorado has been in a state of critical fire danger, prompting a series of fire restrictions throughout the region.
But restrictions are not a guarantee.
On June 1, a fire broke out in the San Juan National Forest about 10 miles north of Durango. The 416 Fire has been burning for eight days, has grown to 7,180 acres and required thousands of people to evacuate their homes, with hundreds more put on notice.
The stage was set for these intense fire conditions months ago.
For the past two years, Southwest Colorado has had normal water and snowpack years through the winter snow season and the summer monsoons resulting in periods of only relative fire danger.
But last fall, conditions took a turn. Between October and December, a weather station at the Durango-La Plata County Airport recorded 0.32 inches of precipitation, nearly 4 inches below those months' historic averages.
Then, winter failed to show up. In the San Juan Mountains, the peak of the snowpack was only half of what the region usually receives based on more than 100 years of records.
A weather station on Molas Pass reported a peak of just 11 inches of water-snow equivalent this year, compared with the average of nearly 20 inches. And Red Mountain Pass, which usually sees 24 inches, peaked at around 14 inches.
Spring rains, too, were a no-show. As of Friday, that same weather station at the airport had recorded only 1.4 inches of precipitation since Jan. 1 – more than 4 inches below the historic average of 5.53 inches.
Many attribute the lack of precipitation in Southwest Colorado to the La Niña weather pattern in the Pacific Ocean, which is known for pushing storms farther north and leaving the American Southwest, literally, out to dry.
But the absence of moisture is only one part of the equation. Above average temperatures this spring caused what little snow there was to melt early, and consequently, fuels in the forest dried out earlier than usual.
From October to May, La Plata County was on average 3 degrees hotter than normal.
The Animas River, as a result, recorded the third lowest peak flow in recorded history, and one of its earliest peaks. While the Animas usually hits high flows in early June, this year the river rose to its highest level around May 11.
Southwest Colorado has been in various levels of drought since October, according to the U.S. Drought Monitor. Near the end of April, the region was placed into the most extreme category of drought.
These conditions caused Southwest Colorado to enter critical fire conditions by April. The entire corner of the state was under Stage 1 fire restrictions by May 1, and that was upgraded to Stage 2 last week.
Now, the region is bracing for what could be a tough few weeks – June is historically the driest month of the year.
"It can't be reiterated enough times what kind of a situation we're in and how people have to be aware of what they're doing in their lives on a daily basis," said Carey Newman with the San Juan National Forest.
It looks as if the monsoon – the rainy season – is the only hope for changing the current weather pattern. But it's unclear when the rains will arrive.
However, there is reason to be optimistic: The Climate Prediction Center says Southwest Colorado has about a 40 percent chance of receiving above average precipitation from July to September, according to a May 17 report.

TW Steel's CEO Goliath
Amsterdam, The Netherlands (EMBARGOED – 23 March, 2011) – TW Steel, the Dutch watch brand 'Big in Oversized Watches', officially launches its new CEO Goliath collection at BASELWORLD 2011 today. Further building on the luxurious 'Collection ExtraOrdinary' platform, first launched by the brand at BASELWORLD in 2009, the 15-model CEO Goliath family continues the theme of taking existing collections within TW Steel and making them more exclusive for the consumer.
The CEO Goliath executions spearhead a more formal, dress-look for 'The Watch in Steel' with the design objective to produce a collection that embraced a certain retrospective element while upholding the brand's reputation for contemporary and distinguished styling on both the 37mm and 42mm offerings. This includes the introduction of a Swiss-Made edition, the CE3015, complete with 144 real A-grade diamonds and a Swiss Ronda 585 caliber movement.
In addition to continuing to set new standards for the design of oversized timepieces, TW Steel's latest collection also celebrates a new level of comfort for the wearer. With flatter, convexed cases and the use of fixed-strap case technology – allowing the strap to be held tighter to the case following its natural curve, these prestigious editions will fit every wrist, no matter the size.
"I really wanted to offer a more formal, dressier watch and one that would really represent us well in the lifestyle market," commented TW Steel Chief Design Officer, Ton Cobelens. "The shape of the Goliath is perfectly suited for this and I'm especially pleased with our focus on comfort. These watches are designed to fit all wrist sizes, both male and female."
"I took pleasure in designing all 15 models in this collection but naturally I'm particularly excited about the Swiss Made CE3015. As the most expensive watch in the range there was no doubt it had to be a Swiss Made execution to reflect its beauty and its 144 real A-grade diamonds!"
Features of the CEO Goliath range include the use of sandblasted cases on the models sporting PVD rose gold plating and PVD black coating. Creating a superior matt case, combined with a shiny bezel, this look further distinguishes the watches adding to their appeal and enhanced qualities, which also include bold indexes and the 12 and 6 in striking roman numerals.
TW Steel enjoys a reputation as an innovative and bold watchmaker. As 'Official Timing Partner' to Lotus Renault GP in Formula One, TW Steel will maintain a global brand presence at the highest level of motorsport to the end of the 2012 season.

By Petros Kausiyo
ZIFA yesterday heaped praise on top Zimbabwean referee Norman Matemera after he upheld integrity in rejecting a $10 000 bribery attempt by Equatorial Guinea outfit Desportivo Niefang to influence the result of their decisive CAF Confederation Cup play-off tie against Cote d'Ivoire's Williamsville Athletic Club last Wednesday.
Matemera, who took charge of the Harare Derby on Sunday, handled the April 18 encounter between Desportivo Niefang and Williamsville Athletic Club in the Equatorial Guinea city of Bata which the hosts won 2-1 but still bowed out 3-2 on aggregate after having fallen 2-0 in the first leg in Cote d'Ivoire.
But there was drama on the eve of the match as Desportivo Niefang officials, working in cahoots with Togolose match commissioner Lawson Mahuwe as their emissary, tried to offer Matemera and his assistants Brighton Nyika, Salani Ncube and Pilan Ncube a cash bribe of $10 000 to ensure the Equatorial Guinea side won the match to advance to the group stage of the competition.
Matemera, however, resisted those attempts and instead reported the incident to the Confederation of African Football.
ZIFA Referees Committee vice-chairman, Gladmore Muzambi, yesterday hailed Matemera.
"We are saying to our international referees, and indeed the local ones, we must always uphold the integrity tenets which entails recognising, resisting and reporting any attempts of match manipulation.
"You must recognise that there are attempts to fix a match, you must resist those attempts and you must report those attempts. In this regard we feel proud that our referees did just that,'' Muzambi said.
Muzambi also noted that Matemera's case had somewhat been complicated by the fact that the match commissioner was guilty of complicity.
"It is quite unfortunate that in this case it involved a match commissioner and it is a situation which makes you wonder who is going to guard the guard when those entrusted to guard are the guilty ones because the match commissioner was the one being used as the go-between in the home team's bribery attempts.
"But really what Matemera did speaks volumes of our honesty as a country on such issues.
"The referee reported the matter to CAF and I believe CAF are already seized with it. We believe CAF have adequate machinery to deal with such issues,'' Muzambi said.
The veteran Zimbabwe referees' administrator said he was also saddened to hear that Matemera and his assistants had been dumped by the Desportivo officials after the match, seemingly being punished for botching their bribery attempts.
"It is so sad that after the referees turned down their bribery offer, the club dumped them and they had to pay for their own meals at the hotel as well as transport to the airport''. The Togolese match commissioner also reportedly left for the Equatorial Guinea capital Malabo without further checking on the referees.
Matemera, one of the top officials in COSAFA, becomes the second official from the region after South Africa's Victor Gomes to resist the bribery carrot that had been dangled before him.
The 35-year-old Matemera is also the only Zimbabwean on the CAF Elite B panel, which enables him to be considered for such competitions like the African Nations Championships.
In December last year he came close to being selected among the crew that officiated at the CHAN tournament in Morocco with a pulled muscle cruelly ruling him out of contention.
Gomes refused to be bribed ahead of another Confederation Cup tie between Plateau United of Nigeria and Algeria's USM Alger. The Herald

Koko And Me
A short story with pictures
Tbilisi, November 2014
THE PANKISI GORGE: Beautiful, raw, rugged, poor… and more recently dubbed as a breeding ground for ISIS recruits joining the struggle against Syria's President Asad, with estimates of up to 200 young men and women crossing the border into Turkey and onwards into Syria. With a population of just a few thousand people this number is not insignificant.
Change was afoot in the sleepy villages of the Gorge, so naturally I wanted to go there.
Suffering from insomnia for weeks on end in the humdrum Tbilisi suburbs, I knew that if nothing else, I would find rest In Pankisi. There would be silence in the countryside. The distant narrative of Syria, the festering fundamentalism in Pankisi - did not thrill me — but would remind me, oddly enough, where home was.
Getting to Pankisi is no easy feat in the middle of winter. My dream of riding-up solo in a hire car, the distant panorama of the Greater Caucasus slowly drawing closer, is defeated by heavy snows. A snarling woman behind the rental desk flicks my Australian driving licence back to me, "You won't manage." she says, "Not in this weather."
So on a miserable winter's day, I sit in a cafe in old town Tbilisi wondering what to do. I order tea and in the warm embrace of my cup, I find myself making excuses not to go. It is only about four o-clock but looking through the window, I see how the headlights of passing cars illuminate the crumbling 18th Century facades on Asatiani Street; how the faces of three rotund women in heavy coats making their way back from the Sioni church, become obscured by clouds of vapour as they pant their way up the hill. Pankisi feels pointless all of a sudden.
However, moments after this quiet contemplation, I meet KoKo.
In the end, it is with KoKo that my trip up the gorge is realised. When I tell him about my plan, he immediately offers to take me there himself, imploring: "You should not go alone, it's a dangerous place!" While unsure about going on a journey with this perfect stranger, the cafe owner, a mutual friend of mine and KoKo's, nods to me and exclaims, "Go! Go with him, he can drive you!" So we head off together the next morning in KoKo's old Mercedes E-Class.
Wild are the tribes of those ravines,
Freedom is their god, their law is war:
They grow up among acts of secret brigandage,
Cruel deeds and unusual deeds…
There it is not a crime to strike an enemy;
Friendship there is true, but revenge truer;
There good is given for good, and blood for blood,
And hatred is as measureless as love.
- Mikhail Lermontov,
A Hero of Our Time
But KoKo is not just anyone. When we stop the car to get gasoline, people look and stare. At lunch in a downbeat canteen in Telavi, a neighbouring party of old men excitedly whisper to one another; the waitress blushes.
"I voted for you!" one of the old men finally cries out. KoKo, who it transpires was a former Minister in the Georgian parliament, smiles gracefully back at him. KoKo seems happy for a moment before his mood settles; his big black heavy-set eyes stare out into the distance.
KoKo's grandfather was a novelist, a poet, a celebrated academician. He translated Dante and Shakespeare into Georgian and found friendship with other leading contemporaries such as Thomas Mann. A man who miraculously escaped Stalin's purges and is remembered today as Georgia's most influential 20th Century writer.
KoKo's father was a dissident, a writer too. After periods of exile and imprisonment under Soviet rule, he rose to lead the newly formed Georgian republic as President while the country descended into bloody civil war. He was soon ousted and fled to Chechnya only to return to
Georgia in a futile attempt to re-establish his power. He was found dead in December, 1993. The investigation KoKo and a parliamentary committee carried out afterwards concluded murder but the incumbent rulers of Georgia had already pronounced suicide, leaving the
matter unresolved in the national consciousness.
As we begin our ascent into the Caucasus, I'm unsure what to make of KoKo. I'm nervous even. The suspension in KoKo's old Mercedes is terrible and I can feel every pothole, every crack in the road, reverberate through my body. With a hangover to boot, petrol seeping into the carriage and the car heating blowing strong in my face—for the best part of the journey I'm doing my best not the to throw-up on the dashboard.
KoKo does not seem to notice my sickly state; he is keen to talk. Our conversation is frantic and doesn't find common ground easily. KoKo asks me nothing personal; not even why I want to visit Pankisi, an unusual destination choice even at the height of summer. He talks only in the abstract: about ideas, concepts, movements, theories.
We ricochet from one topic to the next, or at least he does while I struggle to clutch onto threads of his monologue. KoKo speaks five languages, possibly more, and he is switching gear between Russian, French, German and English with complete fluidity. He sporadically breaks into verse, reciting poetry in Arabic and Farsi. At one point when he is talking about the etymology of our Greek names, Saint Constantine and Saint Helena, he suddenly cries out:
"We are Saints!!"
In this moment he releases his hands from the wheel and lets them fly above his head to make fluttering angel wings. The car swerves sharply for a split second and the skeletal winter trees that line the road briefly blur out of focus.
'KoKo is unhinged and I'm adrift' I think to myself.
'What am I to this man?, Why has he come with me?'
KoKo tells me about his own personal life only briefly. He rolls off the events of the past few years in a quiet and solemn voice: "I lost my job in Switzerland… My wife and I divorced… My sons are studying in Berlin… I can't get back into Georgian politics". Out of paid work he, like his grandfather before him, has been translating great literary works into Georgian and writing.
When I ask him what he misses about life in the Soviet period, he replies:
"Nothing… it was a peculiar and grotesque experiment".
"And what about today?" I persist.
"You know modern man is like the story of King Lear, we are a society of fakers. Do you know the difference between a liar and a faker?"
My mind goes back to England. I imagine Lear in the hovel on the heath, sightless and mad. I see KoKo's face, my face, coming out of the darkness. We are physically close, but unaware of each other; lost in our own thoughts, our own madness, our own delusions. It's not so strange to be on a journey with a stranger, I tell myself.
When we arrive in the valley, the sun is setting. After a long grey winter's day, it has pierced through the clouds in the final hour to create a quivering golden chain of light around the peaks of the Caucasus which rise majestically above the ravine. I unwind the car window; the cold air pours-in and my nausea subsides. We pass the last few ramshackle Georgian towns before entering the fabled Pankisi Gorge. Churches give way to mosques; heavily bearded men stop in their tracks to peer through the tinted windows of KoKo's Mercedes. The Adhan — the Muslim call to prayer — sings out across the valley and I couldn't feel more alone.
KoKo slows the car to a crawl while we look for signs of activity; we must find a place to sleep. We are flagged down by a middle-aged man who invites us into his home for food while he makes enquiries for us.
The man's wife and daughter are dressed in full hijab and work away diligently in the kitchen, serving up dish after dish. When they finish cooking, they don't join us at the table, but sit by the stove and stare at the wall. When they do ask us questions, they shoot us a quick glance before returning their gaze to the wall to listen to the answer. As we are preparing to leave the mother stands up, finally, and says: "We have applied twice for a Georgian passport for my daughter, but we still don't receive anything. Maybe it's because there is a wolf on the birth certificate?" The wolf is the national symbol of Chechnya. The family are refugees from Grozny. The statement seems to come from nowhere. 'Maybe they think KoKo can help them', I think to myself.
We are escorted to a house to sleep by following a mud track off the main road. The headlights of KoKo's car briefly reveal life in the village: out of the darkness, chickens scurry through a gate; thick scrub disappears under the front wheel; young men gaze out from a frozen-over orchard.
We arrive at a tall iron gate which is hauled open by an elderly lady in a colourful headscarf. We drive through it, and the gate rolls backward again, clicking decisively into place behind us.
The house is large, wood panelled from floor to ceiling and equipped with Soviet-era utensils and appliances. It resembles a dacha, a Russian summer home. KoKo is exchanging words in broken Chechen with the landlady and I am astonished he seems to know yet another language. There is no gas in the village despite promises from the government to build a pipeline into the valley so the house is fucking freezing. There is used linen strewn across the beds and the kitchen table is covered with uneaten foodstuffs now gone mouldy, rotten. A fish head sits in the middle of the table on a napkin secreting a glutinous fluid. Used tea bags sit in saucers and bread crumbs are scattered between them. Buckets upon buckets of old fruit growing soft and wrinkly sit on the floor around the table. It's as if someone threw a harvest party on the last day of summer and then left without warning, without knowing they would not return. It's eerie, but then again I'm tired.
The elderly Chechen landlady flies past the mess in the kitchen but proceeds to fix the situation with the bedding. As she prepares to leave us, I see she has made just one double bed and ignored the second and third bedroom, leaving bare mattresses on wrought-iron.
Suddenly, I find myself in a spout of fatigued anger. "Why have you only fixed one bedroom? Dvye komnatii! Dva!" I am looking at both of them for an explanation. "It's a mistake. We can make up the other bed after she has gone", KoKo says.
Both KoKo and the landlady look embarrassed and are doing their best to placate me as I pace up and down the living room like a caged tiger. She taps her head as if to say she has been stupid and misunderstood. KoKo reassures me again:
"We can make the second bedroom up ourselves." I persist still: "But why didn't she make the bed? She should have done it!"
I tell KoKo that I don't know him very well and sleeping in a vacant, cold house in the middle of a remote village was not what I had in mind. It's an awkward moment but somehow we both leave my words hanging in the air, and walk away from them.
Once the landlady is gone, KoKo turns-on the stove-top in the kitchen for warmth and we sit by it with our novels. I am reading but not absorbing the words are going straight through me.
I am thinking to myself:
'I will leave in the middle of the night if I have to. I'll wait by the mosque and hitch a ride back to Tbilisi when morning breaks'.
But when I cautiously look up from my book, KoKo is buried in his.
He looks a million miles away. Without warning I curtly whisper, "Goodnight" and go to my bedroom. I put on every item of clothing I have brought with me, crawl into the damp sheets and pray for morning to come. I immediately fall into a most profound slumber. Not a single dream, flicker of light or rustle of activity do I recall. Just a deep, viscous black; devoid even of the surreal or anything that resembles life.
Morning breaks and sunlight is streaming through the windows of my room. Everything glows gold and caramel. I stumble into the kitchen to make tea and I can hear children laughing in the school next door. Chickens and goats walk past the kitchen window in the garden below. I laugh; they look like pedestrians purposefully going about their daily errands in town as they appear from the left and disappear to the right of the window frame.
KoKo suddenly appears out of nowhere to join me and my heart jumps into my mouth in fright. He is brushing his hair obsessively with a comb and then flattening it with the pressure of his other hand. We sit by the stove again, hovering our hands above it for heat, and engage in further stop-start conversation. As we talk, our breath turns into clouds of vapour.
"This place is not very civilised," KoKo admits.
It's the most real, in the here-and-now thing I've heard him say so far. Unshowered, hungry and cold we decide to venture into the village in search of hot coffee and food.
There is only one restaurant in Pankisi which is, of course, closed. But KoKo's presence is causing the locals loitering around the restaurant to spring into action and phone calls are made. We are soon joined by a short, corpulent man — the cook — and a kind-faced, lanky man with piercing blue eyes — I'll call him Aalam. Together they serve us an array of dishes without charge to honour KoKo's presence. Before too long, we are sucking the meat from cow hooves, dipping cheese-filled bread into a homemade chilli salsa and gnawing on delicately cut raw radishes, carrots and spring onions. It's superb.
By 11am wine is brought out and the cook, energetic and eager to entertain, takes a seat at the head of the table. The men drink to KoKo's father and, seemingly because there is nothing to bind us together other than our differences, to the acceptance of "All people on earth: Christian, Muslim, all faiths". KoKo is explaining the truth of his father's death, the angle of the bullet wounds, after the men ask why he took his own life. I wonder how many times KoKo has told this story.
As the sun sits high in the sky, Aalam takes us on a tour of the village. We make our way across the Alazani River on crude half-built bridges and the ravine looks truly beautiful. I can hardly focus on maintaining my balance on the thin planks of wood I must follow, for the horizon is mesmerising.
Aalam and KoKo are walking arm-in-arm and Aalam seems genuinely happy to have us there. The two men, who must be about the same age, are lost in conversation. Alaam occasionally points off into the distance, beyond the mountain ranges, towards the Russian-Chechen
Pankisi ravine: a lawless passage for arms deals and drug smugglers, or so it has been called in the past, a meeting place for Chechen and Russian criminals who traded their black s goods in times of war against the backdrop of an alpine paradise, a romanticised bandit country, but a hotbed for ISIS recruits, a keeper of hostages. None of this seems to matter in this moment. None of it even seems true.
We arrive at the home of Aalam's sister and her family on the other side of the river where I ask questions about the men in Syria. A heavily bearded young man offers no personal accounts of the men although he surely must have known them. He answers generally:
"There are no jobs here, there are no prospects. They are offered money and they go."
When he says this, I am reminded of all the journalists that who must have visited Pankisi before me; the intimate stories of their childhood friends splashed across the headlines.
But in this instance, it is KoKo that is the centre of their attention.
"I have seen you on the TV so many times, I can't believe you are sitting here with us!" one of the men says.
The men are keen to flex their brain muscle and talk politics with him - conversation that comes naturally to him but he listens more than he talks, not the dynamic I experienced in the car ride from Tbilisi. He is leaning back on the sofa, legs crossed and arms outstretched. He is grimacing and then nodding calmly as they explain their views on Russia's annexation of Crimea. KoKo, all of a sudden, seems like a prodigal son returning home. His face softens.
We continue our tour around the village. Young men loading hay onto a pick-up truck stop and stare suspiciously at us. They exchange words with one another and I see their lips moving, but their eyes are cold and expressionless. They return to their work in the fields and don't look our way again. The young women look at me cautiously, but curiously. Some of them run up to me — out of their houses, out of the fields — panting and giggling at the same time, they ask "Where are you from?" "Australia" I say, and they laugh and applaud.
KoKo and Aalam are racing ahead. When I linger and get too far behind, I begin to look anxiously for KoKo in the distance.
We return to the restaurant at nightfall. The feast is immense and wine is decanted into our glasses every few minutes. There are now three men in our company: Aalam, the cook and a deer hunter who spends his days up in the mountains. The cook is excited and leads a series of toasts. Overweight, red-faced and unkempt, his food is surprisingly delicate. There is a sophistication to it.
All three men are native Kists— ethnic Chechens who settled in the valley some 150 years ago. They are known as Sufis, practitioners of a mystic strand of Islam that developed in the 19th-century. Yet they drink like the Georgians and identify with the people of Chechnya. They fought alongside their fellow Chechens in the wars against Russia and tell stories of loss and devastation. We are reminded that KoKo's father was buried in Grozny before his remains were repatriated back to Tbilisi some 14 years later. So we drink to KoKo's father again, to KoKo's grandfather, to their fallen brothers. They finally toast my presence: "May you meet a nice man and have lots of babies!" I'm cringing, but down my glass of wine all the same.
As the evening rolls on, the cook grows louder; KoKo is reciting poetry, Aalam is sanguine, the hunter withdraws further into solitude and I am there like a fly on the wall, taking it all in. For a brief moment in time, it feels everything is the way it should be. We are playing the roles that come most naturally to us, or at least it seems that way. We return to the cook's house where his wife prepares beds for us. The cook, now extraordinarily drunk, demands one final toast.
We drink to Allah.
Happy and drunk, I disappear into my room of pink satin drapes and Uzbek rugs. I coil up in a blanket marked with the Al-Haramain Humanitarian Foundation initials. It is warm and soft and I imagine who has sort refuge in it before me. I fall into a contented sleep but am awoken at 6am by the call to prayer. A choir of howling village dogs join in chorus. The chorus builds into a crescendo as I watch from the balcony the pink sun rise over the Caucasus.
That day, after several more home visits and 90 minutes glued to the TV with the other villagers to watch a press conference of Vladimir Putin, KoKo and I leave for Tbilisi. As we are bidding our hosts farewell, the cook reveals with a boyish grin that KoKo and I have been followed by the Georgian security services. We all laugh. What sense could they have possibly made of our presence? What could they even write in their file?
KoKo is relaxed and jovial, and so am I, as we our car rolls out of the gorge. We drive past an enormous pig licking at the dirt on the side of the road, "Welcome back to Georgia!"
KoKo jokes. I am correcting every word of his English at his request and he is teaching me Russian phrases. We take the mountain pass home and the snow clad Caucasus are breathtaking. KoKo tells me of a lone road trip he once made through the French countryside from Switzerland to deliver some paintings for his then-wife's exhibition; and how he thought that was the most beautiful landscape he'd ever seen. He occasionally slows the car to tell me a story of some seemingly insignificant hillside town we have just passed: its origins and medieval history.
As we draw closer to Tbilisi and the open marshy planes morph into suburban sprawl, shopping malls and traffic, I feel the level of tension rise in the car again. KoKo tells me there is a good chance he will be offered a diplomatic post abroad but he seems sad:
"What should I do there? Who will I talk to? I don't have a wife. I know people here, I have friends."
He seems to be soliciting my advice. When I ask him why he doesn't seek a position locally he says,
"No one is offering me anything here. They should come forward and offer me a position. I have a doctorate, I have been a Minister, I speak English, I have the right training, I am personable, I am not totally introverted… so why don't they give me anything?"
I don't know what to say. Georgian politics is a big, murky mess and there might be forces at work to keep KoKo on the sidelines. Who am I to comment? What would it matter what I think?
I feel sad after this conversation, but we have arrived near my dingy Soviet apartment block and it's time for me to go. I kiss KoKo good-bye on the cheek and walk into the night.

As automotive companies build faster cars, it will come to a point where horsepower will exceed the grip level of even the best and most expensive tires. Though there are a couple of ways to improve traction, from trick differentials, traction control, and torque vectoring, the next step would be changing the setup to an all-wheel-drive.
At the recent 2017 Goodwood Festival of Speed, CEO of McLaren Mike Flewitt spoke to Car and Driver magazine. And during their interview, he said that the company might come up with all-wheel-drive variants of their current lineup very soon. This means that they will veer from their rear-wheel-drive strategy that works best for power and 0-60 superiority.
Though he made it clear that it isn't what the company is focused on right now, he said that they are "getting close to the limit" and that they will have to transition to an all-wheel-drive setup after reaching the limit. Here, Flewitt is referring to the limits of what a tire can handle - the best tires I must say.
This may not be the best way to do it, but what if there's no other direction to go to? Also, all-wheel-drives should not be so bad as sending power to all the wheels generally improves performance.
He then added that when this happens, the company's engineers will not stick to the conventional setup and instead develop a hybrid system. This means that the front axle will be electrically powered, while the rear axle will work mechanically. Flewitt also said that there will be no point bringing a shaft down as the hybrid architecture will be flexible, from an engineer's point of view.
What's good about this is that they could develop a setup like that of a race car, by losing the rear subframe and mounting the engine directly into the rear of the carbon fiber chassis. If this all-wheel-drive setup can be done, it will shed a lot of weight off the car too, which will even help improve the car's performance.
In fact, he would always ask his engineers to always try and reduce the weight of their cars. Though this can be done with race cars, it will be different when the same treatment is applied to a road car, and engineers will definitely face challenges during the refinement.
As of today, customers will have to bear with McLaren's rear-wheel-drives, not that they aren't awesome. Some of McLaren's new models include the 562 horsepower (419 kilowatts) 570S and the beefier 720S, that produces 710 horsepower (529 kilowatts).

Installation ProblemTrying to install Nova on my site but after inputting the database details on the config page and clicking Next Step, I get a page with "502 Bad Gateway" error.
I've tried deleting the files from the server and then re-upping them but this makes no difference.
Hoping someone can help!

Re: Installation ProblemYou'll probably need to reach out to your host about this one. A 500 error like that is probably server related as opposed to Nova related.

If your family includes a pretty big age gap between siblings or cousins, then you probably know the pain of trying to find a fun activity that everyone will love. Amusement parks sometimes work, if the adults are willing to split up, but even that isn't always perfect. Instead, why not bring the whole crew to the Gatlinburg roller coaster, the perfect way to please everyone – even the ones who hate fast rides.
The Rider Controls the Gatlinburg Roller Coaster
How can we offer a roller coaster, full of exhilarating twists and thrilling turns, that is also fun for people who aren't fond of fast rides? Good question. Our unique roller coaster is totally controlled by a brake in the one-person or two-person car. If you want, you can ignore the brake and whip down the long straightaways like a rocket (up to 35 mph). But if you prefer, you can ease around the corners and down the hills, taking in the beautiful views all around you and enjoying a more sedate ride. Either way you do it, the Gatlinburg Mountain Coaster is one of the best things to do in Gatlinburg.
Almost Everyone Can Ride the Gatlinburg Roller Coaster
As long as a child is three years old and at least 38 inches tall, they can ride the Gatlinburg roller coaster in a two-person car with an adult. You don't need to know how to do anything at all. Working the brake is easy and intuitive. Teens over 13 who are at least 56 inches tall can ride alone in a single-person car, and work the brake just fine. Safety harnesses and lap belts keep everyone safe as the car speeds through the wooded area.
You don't need to be particularly fit or able to walk up the incline to ride, either. Take our lifts instead, and enjoy a slower ride up the mountain. You'll get an amazing view of the area and all the things to do in Gatlinburg as you arrive.
Bring a Group for a Discount
We're confident that your kids and family members of all ages will love their trip on the Gatlinburg roller coaster. Come ride Gatlinburg Mountain Coaster at night for a magical experience and ride through the track as it is lit by thousands of twinkling lights. Or ride in the snow for a totally unique winter holiday activity! If you are bringing in a large group, call us for discount information on group rates. If you manage to keep a grip on your ticket through your ride, you'll be able to turn that ticket in for a discount on your second ride in the same day.
Celebrate Any Special Occasion on the Gatlinburg Roller Coaster
What kid wouldn't love a wild roller coaster ride for their birthday? Have some 4th of July fun, or even create a new family winter holiday tradition at the Gatlinburg roller coaster. Don't forget to share your pictures and story with us on Facebook or Instagram using the #CoasterMoments hashtag!
