21 October [1853]. - I remember Charles Butler saying of the Duchess de Praslin's murder. 'What could a poor fellow do with a wife who kept a journal but murder her?' There was a certain truth hidden in this light remark. Your journal all about feelings aggravates whatever is factitious and morbid in you; that I have made experience of. And now the only sort of journal I would keep should have to do with what Mr. Carlyle calls 'the fact of things'. It is very bleak and barren, this fact of things, as I now see it - very; and what good is to result from writing of it in a paper book is more than I can tell. But I have taken a notion to, and perhaps I shall blacken more paper this time, when I begin quite promiscuously without any moral end in view; but just as the Scotch professor drank whisky, because I like it, and because it's cheap.
October 22. - I was cut short in my introduction last night by Mr. C.'s return from Bath House. That eternal Bath House. I wonder how many thousand miles Mr. C. has walked between there and here, putting it all together; setting up always another milestone and another betwixt himself and me. Oh, good gracious! when I first noticed that heavy yellow house without knowing, or caring to know, who it belonged to, how far I was from dreaming that through years and years I should carry every stone's weight of it on my heart. About feelings already! Well, I will not proceed, though the thoughts I had in my bed about all that were tragical enough to fill a page of thrilling interest for myself, and though, as George Sand has shrewdly remarked, 'rien ne soulage comme la rhètorique.'
October 23. - A stormy day within doors, so I walked out early, and walked, walked, walked. If peace and quietness be not in one's own power, one can always give oneself at least bodily fatigue - no such bad succedaneum after all. Life gets to look for me like a sort of kaleidoscope - a few things of different colours - black predominating, which fate shakes into new and ever new combinations, but always the same things over again. To-day has been so like a day I still remember out of ten years ago; the same still dreamy October weather, the same tumult of mind contrasting with the outer stillness; the same causes for that tumult. Then, as now, I had walked, walked, walked with no aim but to tire myself.
October 25. - Oh, good gracious alive; what a whirlwind - or rather whirlpool - of a day! Breakfast had 'passed off' better or worse, and I was at work on a picture-frame, my own invention, and pretending to be a little work of art, when Mr. C.'s bell rang like mad, and was followed by cries of 'Come, come! are you coming?' Arrived at the second landing, three steps at a time, I saw Mr. C. and Ann in the spare bedroom hazily through a waterfall! The great cistern had overflowed, and was raining and pouring down through the new ceiling, and plashing up on the new carpet. All the baths and basins in the house were quickly assembled on the floor, and I, on my knees, mopping up with towels and sponges, &c.
In spite of this disaster, and the shocking bad temper induced by it, I have had to put on my company face to-night and receive. ----- and ----- were the party. Decidedly I must have a little of 'that damned thing called the milk of human kindness' after all, for the assurance that poor ----- was being amused kept me from feeling bored.
My heart is very sore to-night, but I have promised myself not to make this journal a 'miserere,' so I will take a dose of morphia and do the impossible to sleep.
October 31. - Rain! rain! rain! 'Oh, Lord! this is too ridiculous,' as the Annandale farmer exclaimed, starting to his feet when it began pouring, in the midst of his prayer for a dry hay time. I have no hay to be got in, or anything else that I know of, to be got in; but I have a plentiful crop of thorns to be got out, and that, too, requires good weather. To-day's post brought the kindest of letters from Geraldine, inclosing a note from Lady de Capel Broke she is staying with, inviting me to Oakley Hall. This lady's 'faith in things unseen' excited similar faith on my part, and I would go, had I nothing to consider but how I should like it when there. I had to write a refusal, however. Mr. C. is 'neither to hold nor bind' when I make new visiting acquaintances on my own basis, however unexceptionable the person may be. The evening devoted to mending Mr. C.'s trowsers among other things! 'Being an only child,' I never 'wished' to sew men's trowsers - no, never!
November 1 - At last a fair morning to rise to, thanks God! Mazzini never says 'thank God' by any chance, but always 'thanks God'; and I find it sounds more grateful. Fine weather outside in fact, but indoors blowing a devil of a gale. Off into space, then, to get the green mould that has been gathering upon me of late days brushed off by human contact.
Cheyne Walk, Chelsea: Thomas Rowlandson (?). c. 1800
November 5. - Alone this evening. Lady A. in town again; and Mr. C. of course at Bath House.
When I think of what I is
And what I used to was,
I gin to think I've sold myself
For very little cas.
November 6. - Mended Mr. C.'s dressing-gown. Much movement under the free sky is needful for me to keep my heart from throbbing up into my head and maddening it. They must be comfortable people who have leisure to think about going to Heaven! My most constant and pressing anxiety is to keep out of Bedlam! that's all. ... Ach! If there were no feelings 'what steady sailing craft we should be,' as the nautical gentleman of some novel says.
November 7. - Dear, dear! What a sick day this has been with me. Oh, my mother! nobody sees when I am suffering now; and I have learnt to suffer 'all to myself.' From 'only childness' to that, is a far and a rough road to travel.
Oh, little did my mother think,
The day she cradled me,
The lands I was to travel in,
The death I was to dee.
November. - 'S'exagérer ses droits, oublier ceux des autres, cela pent être fort commode; mais cela n'est pas toujours profitable et on a lieu souvent de s'en repentir. Il vaudrait mieux souvent avoir des vices qu'un caractère difficile. Pour que les femmes perdent les familles, il faut qu'elles aillent jusqu'à l'inconduite, jusqu'au désordre. Pour les y pousser, il suffit souvent qu'un homme gâte toutes ses bonnes qualités et les leurs par des procédés injustes, de ia dureté et du dédain.'
It is not always, however, that unjust treatment, harshness, and disdain in her husband drives a woman jusqu'au désordre, but it drives her to something, and something not to his advantage, any more than to hers.
To-day has been like other days outwardly. I have done this and that, and people have come and gone, but all as in a bad dream.November 13. - Taken by ----- to Lord John's lecture at Exeter Hall. The crowd was immense, and the applause terrific; the lecture 'water bewitched.' One thing rather puzzled me: at every mention of the name Christ (and there was far too much of it) the clapping and stamping rose to such a pitch that one expected always it must end in 'hip, hip, hurrah.' Did the Young Men's Christian Association take his Lordship's recognition of Christ as a personal compliment, or did it strike them with admiration that a Lord should know about Christ?

20 November. - I have been fretting inwardly all this day at the prospect of having to go and appeal before the Tax Commissioners at Kensington tomorrow morning. Still, it must be done. If Mr. C. should go himself he would run his head against some post in his impatience; and besides, for me, when it is over it will be over, whereas he would not get the better of it for twelve months - if ever at all.
The Death of the Property Tax!!! (or 37 Mortal Wounds for Ministers & the Inquisitorial Commissioners!!!!!!!!!): George Cruikshank, 1816 (Library of Congress)
21 November. - O me miseram! not one wink of sleep the whole night through! so great the 'rale mental agony in my own inside' at the thought of that horrid appealing. It was with feeling like the ghost of a dead dog, that I rose and dressed and drank my coffee, and then started for Kensington. Mr. C. said 'the voice of honour seemed to call on him to go himself.' But either it did not call loud enough, or he would not listen to that charmer. I went in a cab, to save all my breath for appealing. Set down at 30 Hornton Street, I found a dirty private-like house, only with Tax Office painted on the door. A dirty woman-servant opened the door, and told me the Commissioners would not be there for half-an-hour, but I might walk up. There were already some half-score of men assembled in the waiting-room, among whom I saw the man who cleans our clocks, and a young apothecary of Cheyne Walk. All the others, to look at them, could not have been suspected for an instant, I should have said, of making a hundred a year. Feeling in a false position, I stood by myself at a window and 'thought shame' (as children say). Men trooped in by twos and threes, till the small room was pretty well filled; at last a woman showed herself. O my! did I ever know the full value of any sort of woman - as woman - before! By this time some benches had been brought in, and I was sitting nearest the door. The woman sat down on the same bench with me, and, misery acquainting one with strange bedfellows, we entered into conversation without having been introduced, and I had 'the happiness,' as Allan termed it, 'of seeing a woman more miserable than myself.' Two more women arrived at intervals, one a young girl of Dundee, 'sent by my uncle that's ill', who looked to be always recapitulating inwardly what she had been told to say to the Commissioners. The other, a widow, and such a goose, poor thing; she was bringing an appeal against no overcharge in her individual paper, but against the doubling of the Income Tax. She had paid the double tax once, she said, because she was told they would take her goods for it if she didn't - and it was so disgraceful for one in a small business to have her goods taken; besides it was very disadvantageous; but now that it was come round again she would give up. She seemed to attach an irresistible pathos to the title of widow, this woman. 'And me a widow, ma'm,' was the winding up of her every paragraph. The men seemed as worried as the women, though they put a better face on it, even carrying on a sort of sickly laughing and bantering with one another. 'First-come lady,' called the clerk, opening a small side-door, and I stept forward into a grand peut-être. There was an instant of darkness while the one door was shut behind and the other opened in front; and there I stood in a dim room where three men sat round a large table spread with papers. One held a pen ready over an open ledger; another was taking snuff, and had taken still worse in his time, to judge by his shaky, clayed appearance. The third, who was plainly the cock of that dungheap, was sitting for Rhadamanthus - a Rhadamanthus without the justice. 'Name,' said the horned-owl-looking individual holding the pen. 'Carlyle.' 'What?' 'Car-lyle.' Seeing he still looked dubious, I spelt it for him. 'Ha!' cried Rhadamanthus, a big, bloodless-faced, insolent-looking fellow. 'What is this? why is Mr. Carlyle not come himself? Didn't he get a letter ordering him to appear? Mr. Carlyle wrote some nonsense about being exempted from coming, and I desired an answer to be sent that he must come, must do as other people.' 'Then, sir,' I said, 'your desire has been neglected, it would seem, my husband having received no such letter; and I was told by one of your fellow Commissioners that Mr. Carlyle's personal appearance was not indispensable.' 'Huffgh! Huffgh! what does Mr. Carlyle mean by saying he has no income from his writings, when he himself fixed it in the beginning at a hundred and fifty?' 'It means, sir, that, in ceasing to write, one ceases to be paid for writing, and Mr. Carlyle has published nothing for several years.' 'Huffgh! Huffgh! I understand nothing about that.' 'I do,' whispered the snuff-taking Commissioner at my ear. 'I can quite understand a literary man does not always make money. I would take it off, for my share, but (sinking his voice still lower) I am only one voice here, and not the most important.' 'There,' said I, handing to Rhadamanthus Chapman and Hall's account; 'that will prove Mr. Carlyle's statement.' 'What am I to make of that? Huffgh! we should have Mr. Carlyle here to swear to this before we believe it.' 'If a gentleman's word of honour written at the bottom of that paper is not enough, you can put me on my oath: I am ready to swear to it.' 'You! you, indeed! No, no! we can do nothing with your oath.' 'But, sir, I understand my husband's affairs fully, better than he does himself.' 'That I can well believe; but we can make nothing of this,' flinging my document contemptuously on the table. The horned owl picked it up, glanced over it while Rhadamanthus was tossing papers about, and grumbling about 'people that wouldn't conform to rules;' then handed it back to him, saying deprecatingly : 'But, sir, this is a very plain statement.' 'Then what has Mr. Carlyle to live upon? You don't mean to tell me he lives on that?' pointing to the document. 'Heaven forbid, sir! but I am not here to explain what Mr. Carlyle has to live on, only to declare his income from literature during the last three years.' 'True! true!' mumbled the not-most-important voice at my elbow. 'Mr. Carlyle, I believe, has landed income.' 'Of which,' said I haughtily, for my spirit was up, 'I have fortunately no account to render in this kingdom and to this board.' 'Take off fifty pounds, say a hundred - take off a hundred pounds,' said Rhadamanthus to the horned owl. 'If we write Mr. Carlyle down a hundred and fifty he has no reason to complain, I think. There, you may go. Mr. Carlyle has no reason to complain.' Second-come woman was already introduced, and I was motioned to the door; but I could not depart without saying that 'at all events there was no use in complaining, since they had the power to enforce their decision.' On stepping out, my first thought was, what a mercy Carlyle didn't come himself! For the rest, though it might have gone better, I was thankful that it had not gone worse. When one has been threatened with a great injustice, one accepts a smaller as a favour.
Carlyle House, 24 Cheyne Row(with Thomas Carlyle's birthplace and Carlyle Estate, Craigenputtock, inset): artist unknown, Illustrated London News, 1881
A part only of the following extracts was selected by Mr. Carlyle, and a part, sufficient merely to leave a painful impression, without explaining the origin of his wife's discomfort. There ought to be no mystery about Carlyle, and there is no occasion for mystery. The diaries and other papers were placed in my hands, that I might add whatever I might think necessary in the way of elucidation, and in this instance I have thought it right to avail myself of the permission. It has been already seen that among the acquaintances in the great world to whom Carlyle's reputation early introduced him, were Mr. and Lady Harriet Baring, afterwards Lord and Lady Ashburton. Mr. Baring, one of the best and wisest men in the high circle of English public life, was among the first to recognise Carlyle's extraordinary qualities. He soon became, and he remained to his death, the most intimate and attached of Carlyle's friends. Lady Harriet was a gifted and brilliant woman, who cared nothing for the frivolous occupations of fashion. She sought out, and surrounded herself with the most distinguished persons in politics and literature, and was the centre of a planetary system, in which statesmen, poets, artists, every man who had raised himself into notice by genuine intellectual worth, revolved, while she lived, as satellites. By Lady Harriet, Carlyle was ardently welcomed. In the society which gathered about herself and her husband, he found himself among persons whom he could more nearly regard as his equals than any whom he had met with elsewhere. He was thrown into connection with the men who were carrying on the business of the world, in a sphere where he could make his influence felt among them. He was perhaps, at one time, ambitious of taking an active part in such affairs himself, and of 'doing something more for the world,' as Lord Byron said, 'than writing books for it.' At any rate his visits to Bath House and the Grange, Lord Ashburton's house in Hampshire, gave him great enjoyment, and for many years as much of his leisure as he could spare was spent in the Ashburton society.
The acquaintance which was so agreeable to himself was less pleasant to Mrs. Carlyle. She was intensely proud of her husband, and wished to be the first with him. She had married him against the advice of her friends, to be the companion of a person whom she, and she alone, at that time, believed to be destined for something extraordinary. She had worked for him like a servant, she had borne poverty and suffering. She had put up with his humours, which were often extremely trying. As long as she felt that he was really attached to her, she had taken the harder parts of her lot lightly and jestingly, and by her incessant watchfulness had made it possible for him to accomplish his work. And now his fame was established. He had risen beyond her highest expectations; she saw him feared, admired, reverenced, the acknowledged sovereign, at least in many eyes, of English literature; and she found, or thought she found, that, as he had risen she had become, what in an early letter she had said she dreaded that she might be, a 'mere accident of his lot.' When he was absorbed in his work, she saw but little of him. The work was a sufficient explanation as long as others were no better off than she was. But when she found that he had leisure for Bath House, though none for her, she became jealous and irritable. She was herself of course invited there; but the wives of men of genius, like the wives of bishops, do not take the social rank of their husbands. Women understand how to make one another uncomfortable in little ways invisible to others, and Mrs. Carlyle soon perceived that she was admitted into those high regions for her husband's sake and not for her own. She had a fiery temper, and a strong Scotch republican spirit, and she would have preferred to see Carlyle reigning alone in his own kingdom. Her anger was wrong in itself, and exaggerated in the form which it assumed. But Carlyle too was to blame. He ought to have managed his friendships better. He ought to have considered whether she had not causes of complaint; and to have remembered how much he owed to her care for him. But Carlyle was wilful, and impatient of contradiction. When his will was crossed or resisted, his displeasure rushed into expressions not easily forgotten, and thus there grew up between these two, who at heart each admired and esteemed the other more than any other person in the world, a condition of things of which the trace is visible in this diary. The shadow slanted backwards over their whole lives together; and as she brooded over her wrongs, she came to think with bitterness of many recollections which she had laughed away or forgotten. Carlyle's letters during all this period are uniformly tender and affectionate, and in them was his true self, if she could but have allowed herself to see it. 'Oh,' he often said to me after she was gone, 'if I could but see her for five minutes to assure her that I had really cared for her throughout all that! But she never knew it, she never knew it.' - J. A. F.Jane Baillie Welsh and Thomas Carlyle were wed in 1826. The union, which lasted forty years, appears to have been blessed with little joy for Mrs. Carlyle. Published correspondence between the spouses reflects both mutual affection and frequent and aggravated dispute. J.A. Froude, in his life of Carlyle (1903), suggested that the marriage was never consummated.
'It was very good of God to let Carlyle and Mrs Carlyle marry one another, and so make only two people miserable and not four' (Samuel Butler).

Thanksgiving is the eighth episode of season one.
Frankie's plan to have an idyllic family Thanksgiving backfires when Mr. Ehlert demands his staff work over the holiday. Brick goes missing in a corn maze.
For Frankie Heck, the best part of Thanksgiving is the day after. Black Friday. She devises a battle plan for the family so they can take full advantage of the sales when the stores open at midnight. Sue is to cover housewares and Axl is on sporting goods. Brick is small and can weave through the crowd, so he's on electronics. You gotta love a woman with a plan.
Sue has a boyfriend named Brad. Mike is worried that Sue is too young to date until he meets the boy. Brad's overly-effeminate ways alleviate Mike's fears that he'll try anything inappropriate with his little girl. "Think we should say something to Sue?" Frankie asks. Mike says, "No, she'll figure it out eventually…or he will."
Mike heads over to his dad's house to invite him over for Thanksgiving. He dreads this ritual, as his dad always politely declines the invitation saying he doesn't want to impose. It always gets to the point where Mike must beg him to come. But it's the one thing Frankie asked him to do. So Mike invites his dad, but he doesn't beg.
Mr. Ehlert announces the dealership will be open on Thanksgiving. Frankie must work the evening shift which means they'll just eat early and she'll have to meet Mike and the kids at the mall at midnight. Then Frankie finds out the Black Friday sales actually start at six on Thanksgiving night. This coupled with the fact that she promised to take Brick to the corn maze throws off her whole schedule. They're pretty much going to be eating dinner at dawn.
Axl wants to go snowmobiling with his friends, Sue wants to spend turkey day with Brad and all Brick really cares about is the corn maze. When Mike announces that he's not sure if his dad is coming for dinner, Frankie loses it. Since no one else seems to care about the holiday, she cancels Thanksgiving.
While Frankie is at work on Thanksgiving morning, Mike decides to rally the family to save the holiday. Easier said than done. Mike will start cooking while Axl takes Brick to the corn maze. The thing about corn mazes is it's easy to get lost. So…Axl loses Brick. After a frantic search, the little guy is found and Axl is the happiest we've ever seen him. Seriously! He's scarily giddy!
The Heck house slowly fills up. Aunt Ginny and Aunt Edie arrive and promptly fall asleep. Sue's boyfriend pops in with a centerpiece he made from the bounties of nature. Even Big Mike Heck pulls up in his pickup. But he doesn't come inside until Mike finally begs him. Yep, there's no stopping tradition.
When Frankie marches into the office to tell Mr. Ehlert how ridiculous it is to be open on Thanksgiving, he breaks down in tears. His wife left him and he didn't want to face the holidays alone. They end up sharing a drink and even a few laughs. But then Frankie finds out that he's not working Thanksgiving because his wife left him. Quite the opposite. His wife left him because he's working Thanksgiving. A totally tipsy Frankie tells off her boss and heads home.
When Frankie stumbles in through the front door, she finds her entire family seated at the dining room table with a holiday spread that would make Martha Stewart proud. At that moment, she knows that they care. Of course, she's drunk so there's no guarantee she'll remember it.
After dinner, Mike and the kids head to the mall to snatch up all those holiday bargains. They come home to show all their purchases to Frankie as she lies passed out on the bathroom floor. Mike got a power sander for 80 percent off and Sue scored big time in housewares. Yes, it was a happy Thanksgiving after all!

These gorgeous peas are coming into season here in Sydney. My kitchen garden is not quite extensive enough to have peas growing in it, but I've certainly enjoyed all the herbs and salads it has produced so far. This pea, herb and almond crush is a perfect way to celebrate all the different herbs and fresh kitchen garden produce. Almonds add a lovely crunch to the dish and lime gives it a lovely tang. You could pair this with meat, fish or pasta or have it on a piece of toast like I did the other morning.
You can use any herbs you like for this dish. I've used lots of mint, some basil, marjoram and oregano. Chives is also easy to grow and suits so well for salads and pestos.
2. Place the herbs, lime zest and juice along with one tablespoon of olive oil in a food processor. Purée into a fine paste. Add the herb paste into the peas and mash roughly to mix. Serve the crush with fish or pasta or use as a spread on a toast.

English professor recognized for excellence in teaching
February 18, 2014
Kristin Fujie, assistant professor of English, has received a Graves Award, which will help support her research and writing on author William Faulkner. Offered biennially, this competitive award recognizes excellence in humanities teaching by younger professors; the funding that accompanies it supports research-related expenses.
A scholar of 20th-century American literature, Fujie will use the $12,000 award to complete two articles tentatively titled "Hurt So Bad: The Crisis of Female Embodiment in Faulkner's Mosquitoes" and "On Native Soil: The Psychosexual and Southern Origins of Flags in the Dust."

text: Pubdate: Mon, 08 Oct 2012 Source: Charleston Gazette (WV) Copyright: 2012 Charleston Gazette Contact: http://www.wvgazette.com/ Details: http://www.mapinc.org/media/77 Author: Kate White FIGHTING DRUG ABUSE TOPS AGENDA FOR PUTNAM SHERIFF CANDIDATES CHARLESTON, W.Va. -- Fighting the epidemic of prescription drug abuse is the top priority for both candidates running for sheriff in Putnam County. They told Gazette editors Monday that's what most crimes can be traced back to. Steve Deweese, a Republican, and Bud Lett, a Democrat, would increase the size of the county's drug task force, which has three officers. "I'd draw from some local departments inside the county and build back the task force like it was when I was supervisor," said Lett, a former federal Drug Enforcement Administration officer and State Police trooper who is now chief of the Kenova Police Department. "We had six men, at one time." As a DEA agent supervising drug task forces, Lett came to Putnam County and helped restore federal grant money for the county's program in the 1990s, he said. Deweese, who retired earlier this year to run for sheriff after serving 21 years as a Putnam County sheriff's deputy, believes more officers in county high schools and a drug tip line answered by a deputy, rather than a voice recording, is also necessary. "The biggest thing is increasing the amount of the drug task officers - -- they need some help," Deweese said. Also, "With the tip line, right now ... it goes right to an answering machine. ... What if you call the tip line on a Friday with good information [and it's not checked until Monday]?" Neither candidate said he would favor a law requiring a prescription for pseudoephedrine, a cold medicine that is a major ingredient in methamphetamine. The candidates said that would be too much of a hardship on law-abiding citizens, and that new pseudoephedrine tracking efforts were already having an impact on meth. Both candidates, who grew up in Putnam County, said their extensive knowledge of the county would help increase needed patrols in rural areas. "Call volume is overwhelming now," Deweese said. "Some areas rarely see deputies at times." Deweese and Lett both said they would apply for federal grants aimed at increasing police presence in rural communities. "We have to draw on other resources," Lett said. "When it comes to drug investigations, it takes a lot of money." Deweese said some citizens have asked him if his having worked for the department would make it tough to discipline his former co-workers. He noted his time in the military and explained the during a deployment he had to reprimand several of his fellow soldiers. "If elected as sheriff, I'd use the same discipline to protect the citizens," he said. Deweese and Lett are running to replace Sheriff Mark Smith, who has served the maximum eight years in office. State voters will consider a proposal to eliminate the term limit for sheriffs, but neither Deweese nor Lett thought the term limit should be eliminated. "That can result in a lot of power, maybe too much in a county setting," Deweese said. "For myself, eight years is enough," Lett said, agreeing that someone in the position could obtain too much power. "You have to be careful about that. Voting someone out is easier said than done sometimes." - --- MAP posted-by: Jay Bergstrom

Architect Tiago Barras has seen the future of public roadways, and said future resembles a moonshine-fueled car chase. As part of his whimsical High-Speed Car Ramp design, the designer suggests adding a jump ramp to Lisbon's Segunda Circular highway.
"A new tourist attraction takes place. The arrival of this new catalyst will foster the redevelopment of the whole region," promises Barras. Before anyone takes this too seriously, know that Barras' website also has a write-up for an exposed spherical balloon cloud to carry passengers lazily across the North American continent

Asian F is the third episode of Glee's third season and the forty-seventh episode overall. It premiered on October 4, 2011.
The title is a reference to Mike receiving an "Asian F" in this episode. When Mike receives an Asian F, his father tries to drag him out of the New Directions and make him break up with Tina, because of distractions. When Mike reveals that he will audition for the musical, his father is enraged. Auditions for the musical continue. Mercedes begins to get sick of Rachel stealing the spotlight, and how Will continually picks on Mercedes only, causing Mercedes to rethink her commitment with Glee. The directors of the musical conduct a diva-off for Mercedes and Rachel, the class presidency campaign heats up between Brittany and Kurt, Shelby starts an all-female glee club group at McKinley and Emma faces her OCD problems with Will.
The episode was directed by Alfonso Gomez-Rejon and written by Ian Brennan.
In the opening, Mercedes arrives late to Booty Camp having woken up late and took her time eating. Santana has re-sworn her allegiance to New Directions (without telling Sue) and makes a comment towards her, and Mike proceeds to assist Mercedes. Mercedes starts to feel sick and Will begins yelling at her. Mercedes tells Will that she's doing her best but Will wants more than her best.
Will talks with Emma about finding a box filled with bridal magazines, and they discuss their future. One day he wants to marry her, but he wants to meet Emma's parents. Emma tries to get out of it but Will wins the argument.
Mike Chang and his father are in Figgins' office. Mike Chang Sr. says he wants Mike drug tested every day because Mike got an A-, or, as it is also known, an "Asian F". Mr. Chang also wants Tina to be removed from the picture and for Mike to quit Glee Club, saying that it was not good for his college application. Mike assures his father that he will try harder and get better grades, he asks his father to give him another chance.
In the football locker room, Coach Beiste tells the guys that they must join the school musical, West Side Story, as backup dancers. (In the previous episode, Coach Beiste mentioned that she would ask her football team to play the Jets.) They protest since they can't learn a dance routine in several days, but eventually everyone turns to face Mike, seemingly knowing that he was the best dancer out of the entire team. Mike was distracted during the team meeting although appeared relieved that he could still participate in the musical as it was now a requirement.In the cafeteria, Shane sees Mercedes hugging Rachel. He sits down for lunch with Mercedes and asks why she would do that. For the role of Maria they are rivals, and thus they shouldn't be hugging. Mercedes says they aren't like that, while Shane looks on. Mercedes meanwhile feels that she is second-best to Rachel and proceeds to sing Spotlight while Rachel is given all the attention in Glee Club.
In the hallways, Mike discusses things with Tina about his A-, otherwise known as an Asian F. Tina also reveals that she has been helping Mike weekly with his singing. Tina asks him if he's ready for his audition for the school musical the next day and Mike says that he's not trying out. Tina asks why and Mike tells her that he's stressed out with everything going on in his life: football, Glee club, Booty Camp, and now his dad pressuring him about his grades. Tina tells Mike to tell his father about his love for dancing but Mike refuses and walks away down the hall.
On the other side of the hallway Brittany and Santana discuss the class president race with Kurt. Kurt is 11 points ahead of Brittany, however, Brittany has a plan and recruits the girls' votes with a pep rally organized by Santana with Run the World (Girls).
Emma and Beiste discuss the role of Maria. Mercedes has made progress lately. Will shows up and discusses Mercedes progress. Emma, Coach Beiste, and Artie then decide to give Rachel and Mercedes a diva-off for the role of Maria.
Mike is in the hallways talking to his father on his phone. He has to see a chemistry tutor but he walks into a room and begins dancing. However his father's words constantly ring in his head. Mike has a vision of his father telling him that he could not make a career from dancing. He continues to dance and when he ends up on the other side of the room he envisions Tina in the room. Tina then tells him that he might not talk or sing very much, but when he dances he expresses his emotions. She says that she had fallen in love with him watching him dance.
Back in the auditorium, Emma, Artie and Coach Beiste are calling Mike for his audition. Mike is uncharacteristically late so they try to move on. He then runs on to the stage, apologizing for being late, and states the song he is using for auditioning for the role of "Riff" with Cool. His football teammates join in with a group dance number. Coach Beiste applauds Mike, telling him that she hopes he isn't wasting his time. Mike then tells her that he loves dancing and it's his dream, so it will never be a waste of his time.
Shelby and Beiste discuss show choirs. No one has auditioned for Shelby's choir at all. Will walks in and Shelby leaves, they both begin to discuss Emma. Beiste tells Will that despite everything, Emma loves him, even if Carl had money, but they have love.Outside McKinley, Kurt proceeds to give Blaine flowers and reveals that the cast list will be going up soon.
In booty camp, Brittany and Santana have joined. Their assignment is "The Widowmaker," the hardest dance move. Everyone does it successfully except Mercedes who claims her ankle hurts. Will points her out. Mercedes reveals that she's done with New Directions. Will then gives her one final choice: leave the room and she's out of Glee Club.
A fantasy sequence then begins as Mercedes sings It's All Over. After the sequence the screen zooms out, Mercedes is alone, "It's over."
Mike is practicing his dancing in an empty room while his mother walks in. Mike never went to his tutor, he went to audition and his mother was forced to cover for him. Mike finally admits to her that dancing is the only thing that he does that makes him feel special. His mother supports him, saying that when they get the results for the casting of the musical they'll both go and tell Mike's father about it together, and reveals a secret. She too loves dancing, but gave up her dream. Mike then offers her lessons and the two proceed to waltz in the room together.
Mercedes and Rachel are preparing for their audition. Finn is supporting Rachel while Shane is supporting Mercedes. Emma flips a coin to decide who goes first and Rachel wins. Rachel lets Mercedes sing first, and they proceed to sing Out Here on My Own.
After the audition, Rachel proceeds to storm down the hallway eventually entering the locker room. She finds Coach Beiste (who is putting on lipstick) and tells her that she has something to discuss.
Emma returns home and Will surprises her by inviting her parents, Rusty and Rose, over for dinner. Emma pulls Will to the side and says she is ashamed of her parents because they are ginger supremacists. They prefer the company of other gingers. Emma's OCD problems start appearing and her parents cruelly comment on it, causing Will to yell at Emma's parents, calling them "racist" and telling them that they should support Emma.
Kurt confronts Rachel at the lockers. Rachel told Coach Beiste that she's running for class president against Kurt. Kurt isn't happy, since he is what will change the school. He is the face of change. And 10 years down the track, Rachel will realize what she's done and the friends she left behind.
In Emma's office, the judges reveal that they are double-casting the role of Maria and adding an extra week to give both girls equal star time of 4 shows and 2 matinees. But Mercedes has had enough of it, no one wants to hurt Rachel and so Mercedes storms out.
Rachel proceeds to talk to Finn, telling him what happened. She then talks about Brittany and Kurt and how they've made her realize things. Kurt asked Finn who he would vote for, Finn doesn't know and walks off. Leaving Rachel alone.
In Emma's room, she begins to pray in front of Will. Down on her knees she begins to cry. Will wants to help Emma but he doesn't know how to help. He wants to learn to pray, so that God will help Emma. Will then proceeds to sing Fix You as his prayer for Emma.
As Will sings, Artie proceeds to put up the cast list:
- Maria - Rachel
- Tony - Blaine
- Riff - Mike
- Anita - Santana
- Officer Krupke - Kurt
New Directions then joins Will in the auditorium, backing him up on Fix You.
In Shelby's office, Mercedes offers to join Shelby's glee club saying she's the star power Shelby's club needs as the episode comes to an end.

The King of All Media is back in the satellite radio fold.
Howard Stern, whose five-year, $500 million contract with Sirius XM Radio is ending, announced Thursday he has re-upped with the company. Terms were not disclosed, although his website said it was another five-year deal.
"We are continuing on," Stern said on his program. "I've signed a deal. ... I started to look at all the companies, Sirius included. And Sirius has been very, very anxious for me to re-sign. ... And I know deep down in my heart, I kept thinking I'd like to stay here. Because more than anything, I think what we've built hasn't been finished yet."
U.S. & World
The deal followed several weeks of posturing, including Stern's on-air declarations thathe might leave and that he refused to take a cut in pay. As the company's top star, Stern had plenty of leverage, especially with commercials for the company's subscription service touting him and in heavy rotation during the holiday season.
Announcement of the deal sent Sirius stock up.One estimate says Stern brought 1.2 million subscribers aboard when he joined the service. With each subscriber paying from $10 to $17 per month, Stern, 56, is a big rainmaker for the company.

For over 30 years, Keystone Systems has been helping organizations make their library available in a whole new way. The Keystone Library Automation System, KLAS, provides all the core features of an integrated library system with additional functionalities necessary for the specialized organizations we serve on a daily basis.
Simply, KLAS helps you get information to the people who want it.
Many organizations see themselves as having a traditional library — shelves with books on them. Many others don't identify themselves as having a library, but still have a collection of information resources that they need to be able to make available. Each may call it something different, but it all boils down to the same thing — they have knowledge they need to be able to share with others.
What do you call the collection of information you share with the public?
Information Repository
Knowledge Center
Information Hotline
Reference Center
Resource Center
No matter how you refer to it, read further to see some of the innovative features that Keystone and KLAS can bring your traditional library, talking book library, resource center, association or other organization.
At Keystone, we pride ourselves on the superior support and services that we provide our customers.Keystone's customers speak about our dedicated support:
It has been a pleasure working with you and the rest of the staff at Keystone. You have proven to be innovative, quality driven and client centered. What has impressed me more than anything and which I will always remember is the relationships you have developed with your customers (many are considered part of the Keystone family rather than customers) and the high degree of service you provide. You thus enable us to provide the highest level of service to the visually impaired and that is the bottom line.
From all the staff in Montana, a GREAT BIG THANK YOU!!!! Your service is great, your patience is unending, your skills are tops and your humor is abundant! Thanks.
We truly do appreciate your patience, diligence, and continous friendly support. It's nice to know you're all working so hard to listen, help, and continually improve the system.
I can't begin to say how much we all appreciate the consistently fine assistance we receive from you on a daily basis. Keep up the good work!
Keystone strives to provide all the services necessary to implement and maintain KLAS in a stable environment supported by knowledgeable staff. Our implementation and database hosting support services have evolved and been refined over the years to provide the best possible operating enviroments available to our customers.
Keystone's full range of services includes:
Accessibility is a core part of the development process in developing KLAS. Though we are fully compliant with Section 508, we don't stop there. We understand that there is a big difference between Accessibility and Usability.
Software that is made to be accessible does not mean that it is truly usable and productive.
Keystone takes things to the next level. We make sure that a person who uses assistive technology is just as efficient and productive as someone who does not.
Accessiblity is a mandatate. We also see it as an opportunity.
Staff and Public interfaces are fully accessible
Public interfaces are used by users of all technical skill. (You don't have to be a JAWS expert to be able to use the KLAS public access screens.)
Staff interfaces are used daily by AT users at all levels – from clerk level all the way up through directors.
Window Eyes
Braille Output
Accessible software is easier to use software for everyone. For those using AT with KLAS, Keystone provides additional features and support.
Keystone Systems' software-as-a-service (SaaS) pricing model can help libraries avoid the high up-front costs of traditional licensing and work within available budget parameters, while Keystone provides support for the KLAS software with daily technical operations, housing, and maintenance of server and network hardware.
Libraries seeking a way to enhance services to patrons and to expand their access to the resources available in one or multiple locations within a limited budget have turned to Keystone's SaaS model.
Keystone's places our customers' needs as the highest priority.
In our mission to provide state-of-the-art library software, we realized that the SaaS pricing model will give us the flexibility to provide libraries, with even the toughest budgetary constraints, the same access to top tier technology and services.
How is SaaS different from traditional software licensing?
SaaS is based on paying a monthly fee for using the software as a service and having the databases hosted at Keystone Systems' offices. This option has the lowest up-front cost as there is no licensing of software or purchase of a server. SaaS cuystomers receive the same database hosting services from Keystone's staff as provideed to customers who purchase perpetual licenses and Keystone;s hosting services.

About Gypsum
There's perhaps no other community in the entire valley that has evolved and grown as much as Gypsum has in recent years. Home to the Eagle County Regional Airport, Gypsum is not only easily accessible from just about anywhere, its ultra downvalley location also provides convenient access to Glenwood Springs and Aspen. Gypsum's motto is to "Live, Work, Play & Be Healthy." Its outdoor recreational amenities and affordability make it an easy motto for residents to live up to. The public Gypsum Creek Golf Course has also created a community hotspot just outside of town, where it's common to find locals soaking in the views from the beautiful deck at the clubhouse's restaurant, The Gypsum Creek Grill, on any summer afternoon. Like its neighbor Eagle to the east, Gypsum's lower elevation equates to fewer snow days. You could hit the slopes in Vail or Beaver Creek — a little more than 30 minutes away — and be home in time for an afternoon ride on your mountain bike or 9 holes at the Gypsum Creek Golf Club. The Gypsum Recreation Center underwent more facility upgrades in 2018 after just 11 years since it was built. The Rec Center is one of the town's most exciting hubs. It offers a gymnastics facility, basketball courts, a state-of-the-art fitness facility, a swimming pool that includes lap lanes as well as a lazy river and waterslide for the kids, yoga studio/fitness room, spinning classes and much more. Gypsum is also home to one of the valley's two public high schools, Eagle Valley High School. Historic single-family homes surround the immediate town center, while newer construction is available in several developments around Gypsum Creek and the airport. If value, accessibility and affordability aren't enough, the fact that Gypsum is home to a Costco helps it score even higher on the convenience scale.

2013 Chile Challenge - New Mexico Wheeling!
This Is Why I'm Hot
A few events should be on everyone's wheeling bucket list. Easter Jeep Safari. Dakota Territory Challenge. Sierra Trek. All-4-Fun. And the Chile Challenge. If you are a longtime reader you have likely seen these events in the pages of 4-Wheel & Off-Road, as we have been covering them for decades. They offer not only some of the most challenging trails in the country, but are also run by volunteers. The profits raised from the events are used to keep those trails open.
Unfortunately, that is getting more difficult for the Las Cruces 4WD Club. While the challenging trails, excellent food, and great camaraderie are still present, the funds generated for land use are dwindling. "There seems to have been a lot of speculation in the 4WD community about the future of the Chile Challenge," explains LC4WDC president David Smith. "This year was the most costly event ever with a rather low turnout. But it looks like we will come very close to hitting the break-even point when all the final incomes and refunds are settled."
That is partially due to lower registration numbers in an ailing economy and partially due to BLM fees, which have doubled since 2006. As a result, the Chile Challenge is at risk of going away, and if that happens many of the hardcore trails that Las Cruces is famous for are in danger of closing. None of us want to see that happen, and it can be prevented by signing up for the 2014 Chile Challenge. Once you mark this event off your bucket list you will get hooked on the great trails, friendly people, and delicious food and will want to come back every year, just like us. The Chile trails may seem too hot to handle at first, but it won't be long before you develop a taste for them and will want to come back for seconds and thirds.

Leadership on High
There is a definite wow-factor when you walk through the woods at University Park and see the new TEAM Challenge course, University Recreation's high-ropes course, peeking through the trees. The platforms are huge, the heights are dizzying – but it's the configuration of planks, ropes and beams that beg the question, "How could anyone get across that?" The course is aptly named, as it is the team experience that will propel the individual to success on the course.
Senior media arts and design major Zach Carlson is one of the few students who have actually been through the course at this time. "It is definitely a thrill. It is totally safe and you are harnessed and clipped in to secure wires at all times, but being that high up off the ground just makes everything a little more exciting," he said.
According to Guy deBrun, assistant director for adventure and TEAM programs, the challenge course is part of a new generation of high-ropes courses. "The old generation had the team standing on the ground cheering on the person in the air; now they've taken the concept of the low course, working together to achieve the goal and raised it 30 feet in the air," he said. The whole team participates in the challenge at the same time, high above the ground.
The TEAM Challenge course is the largest of its type built to date according to deBrun. The course is configured in an L-shape and there are 10 high challenge elements ranging from 15 to 35 feet. Combined with the low-ropes course that has been moved to the same property this gives the TEAM facilitators a lot of flexibility to work with groups on more than one occasion. "The chance of going through every element in one day is almost zero," said deBrun. Groups can visit the course several times and have a different experience each time.
The benefits to both the individual and the team will be great.
Dr. Mark Warner, senior vice president for student affairs and university planning, spoke at the grand opening summing up the real benefit a high-ropes course can offer. "The physical challenges that will happen here will be minute compared to the mental challenges that will go on. The challenges to create a team, to create relationships, to create communication – those will be the real challenges," said Warner. DeBrun agrees, saying that these challenges translate into skills needed in today's work force, basic needs for college graduates.
Fifteen student staff were hired this fall to go through extensive safety and leadership training in order to facilitate groups on the TEAM Challenge course. Carlson, who will serve as student manager, says he's been impressed with the dedication and skill of his fellow student staff. "They are all really engaging and really adept at facilitating great team building programs," he said.
UREC has currently waived the fee for JMU student groups to participate on the challenge course and so far 69 groups have signed up. The course will work with nonprofit and corporate groups as well and rates are available on the UREC website.
Carlson is excited to get started. "It is an excellent opportunity for groups to develop better communication, teamwork, leadership and unity and it is a really good time," he said.

Hanna Holborn Gray
Hanna Holborn Gray was practically destined to an academic career. She is the daughter of a prominent professor of European history, Hajo Holborn, who after seeking exile from Nazi Germany taught at Yale for 35 years. Her mother, Annemarie Bettmann, who held a PhD in classical philology, was no less important in supporting her academic aspirations. She arrived with her family in New Haven at the age of four, and attended the Foote School with other Yale faculty children, as well as English children who had been sent from Oxford because of the war. She entered Bryn Mawr College at 15, and upon graduation travelled to Oxford as a Fulbright scholar. After receiving her PhD degree from Harvard in 1957, she taught there for several more years, being promoted to assistant professor in 1959.
She met Charles Montgomery Gray in a Renaissance history seminar while both were graduate students at Harvard, and they married in 1954. When he received an appointment at the University of Chicago in 1960, she moved with him, without any specific job plans of her own. She thought about attending law school, and spent the first year in Chicago as a Newberry Library fellow. However, in 1961 she was offered a position on the history faculty at the University of Chicago.
Hanna Gray received tenure in 1964, and taught Western Civilization as well as other graduate and undergraduate classes on Renaissance and Reformation Europe. She helped to redesign the College history requirements. Her name first came to prominence at the University, though, after she was appointed to head a committee to review the decision not to reappoint Marlene Dixon, a sociology professor, in 1969. Dixon's case had been taken up by students who claimed she was discriminated against because of her gender and leftist political views. While the committee was still considering the case, students took over the Administration Building, demanding that Dixon be rehired and that students take part in faculty hiring decisions. The committee upheld the decision not to reappoint but recommended that the University offer Dixon a one-year position.
Activists were discouraged by the result, but others hailed the work of the committee, which dispassionately scrutinized the charges of unfair practices and reaffirmed that appointment decisions must be based on teaching and research productivity, and that these standards must be applied equally to all faculty members.

Sometimes finding an ancestor's home can be extremely easy, especially if you know what city or town they lived. Of course a lot depends on the when they lived there and what kind of resources are available for you to find the address. I was lucky to find my Fanny Poole, 2nd great-grandmother's address from her 1904 obituary, it stated she died in her home, at 39 Addington Road, Brookline, Massachusetts. She was not at this address during the 1900 census or any other source.
Her death location, is a rather short distance from where I live, about 45 minutes away. To find her house, I used google maps, enlarged them and took several photos with my iPad. The old development looked complicated because of all the circular streets, and I knew I'd need simple directions. Another method, and I've used it with much success recently, is to do a google search for the address. When I typed in "39 Addington + Brookline," I was lucky to get a nice screen shot and since it was on the market, I saw the current value, plus photos of the inside. This was a bonus. With my maps, I was ready to go, except I got lost, and in spite of everything, couldn't take a decent photo of the property.
You can see Addington Road (red A to left) and how it circles around on the top of Aspinwall Hill, all the paths are just that, they are for walking only. Since we were there in the summer, every shrub and tree was full, plus lots of cars on the road, so, all three made it difficult to take a photo.
The above shot shows Claflin Path (one of seven paths) is right next to her home, and my photo is below, complete with lots of green. However, I couldn't get a decent picture of the building! I believe the best time to go is winter.
A good example how the street and property looks like in winter.
The development above has quite a history. I discovered this when I was at the Frederick Law Olmsted National Historic Site, and asked for directions from there to Addington Road, since it was rather close. I was told that Mr. Olmsted had a hand in that development. I found a good article by the Brookline Historical Society complete with photo of a path and map. "The curving, gently rising roadways that wind up and down Aspinwall Hill were originally designed by F.L. Olmsted. Subsequent designers retained the basic curvy street layout devised by Olmsted. Perhaps they appreciated Olmsted's goals of respecting the contours of the hillside and revealing the landscape from a variety of viewpoints as you passed by in your horse drawn carriage. These very same curvy streets, when traveled by foot, make for a very long and slow ascent of the hill. Addington Road is a giant S, with each half of the S traversing opposite sides of the hill. This is where the value of the path's shortcut shines."
The apartments, condos and houses in the entire area are old and beautiful. A few of the ones I liked are below.

Switzerland may be known for many things; its financial institutions, fine chocolate, hand-made timepieces and tremendous scenery including one of the most foreboding mountains in Europe, the Eiger. But one thing that would not be on many lists would be an indigenous helicopter.
So the unveiling of the first prototype of its light single-engine SKYe SH09 helicopter by Marenco Swiss Helicopter has already begun turning heads – including many of its potential competitors. Originally announced at Heli-Expo Dallas in 2012, the SKYe SH09 (SH means Swiss Helicopter, 09 for the year it was conceived) is a smart-looking aircraft that would not seem out of place among the ranks of its international competitors.

The company is the brainchild of CEO Martin Stucki, a self-confessed helicopter enthusiast. Stucki set out to build a helicopter in 2002, but that meant creating a company, a process, a team and an infrastructure in Switzerland.
The concept was borne as a 3D model around 2002. Stucki then took the idea to the market, talking to as many operators as he could, while starting to seek out an investor who would believe as he did and help to take the dream forward. In 2009 when the economy crashed, after a very hard year, at last an investor was found. While the identity of the investor was not revealed at the launch, it is a foreign investor handled through a Swiss financial institution: "It was a relatively small investment for him," said Stucki.
The cost of owning a SKYe SH09 is going to be around $3 million, revealed Stucki. That buys a 2.5-ton composite fuselage, five-bladed, brand new helicopter.
Mathias Senes, chief commercial officer (CCO) whose extensive rotorcraft industry experience which includes more than 11 years with Eurocopter, went into detail about the design of the helicopter: "The Sagem Avionics glass cockpit (ICDS 8A PFD/EMS) is sold as standard. We found they had great expertise and fabulous reactivity to our project which was important." The Sagem cockpit allows engine displays to be customized; it will read 21 channels of FADEC data and 38 channels delivering other airframe and engine parameters. This will be the first time that the Sagem ICDS has been interfaced to the Honeywell HTS900-2 1D FADEC engine.
The SKYe SH09 has been designed with visibility front of mind, with a large clear center panel between the two cockpit seats giving a view straight down through the nose and floor of the helicopter. The clear optional door panels also drop below floor level. "The idea to increase visibility this way meant that we developed this door which bulges beneath the frame and the floor plain from the left and right sides to deliver excellent vertical references," explained Senes.
There are also five carbon fiber main rotor blades. "I love this because they provide maneuverability and less vibration. The EC155 has one of the best signatures in terms of vibrations and our engineers determined that there is a real drop in vibration when you go from four blades to five," claimed Senes.
The aircraft has three fuel tanks with two side tanks feeding the lower tank. Then there is a short but high tail boom on the end of which is the Maestro, the Marenco shrouded tail rotor. The importance of safety, particularly in the EMS role, was an important factor for the design team. "We have improved the shrouded tail – it is around 40 per cent bigger than that on an EC120 which is around 80 cm in diameter; we have a 1.2 m diameter. The idea of the short, high tail boom is to allow people access to the rear clamshell doors while reducing the cross wind effect on the aircraft," explained Senes.

How does a fledgling helicopter manufacturer with no track record persuade companies to join in with the ideal? Senes noted: "The aviation suppliers we are working with did not have to be persuaded. There is strong agility in Switzerland for small series production. We found people motivated – one company we work with is even at the end of the road. It you take away the Zodiac-supplied seats [from France] and the Honeywell engines, then we are around 80 percent Swiss manufactured."
Marenco is "done with the component testing," said Senes. "The P1 airframe has been assembled and we move on to P2." The next major test will be conducted using the whirl tower where the rotor head is spun with the blades attached. Then follows the ground tests and after that the company will be chasing EASA for permission to begin flight tests, the first of which it expects to have flown by the end of first quarter 2014. For this they have engaged seasoned test pilot Dwayne Williams who will perform testing both in Switzerland and the U.S. in the Lake Tahoe area.
"At this stage the detail needs to be done. We still have a lot of equipment to develop and each aircraft will have its own area of tests – some for the options and avionics and of course a crash test. It is unlikely that any of the expected three test aircraft will be sold to customers," said Senes.
Marenco will begin building its helicopters at the Mollis airfield site where there is ample room for expansion. The company is looking to build a new facility there, which will have 75 meters of floor space with offices above it. The current location for most of the Marenco team is in the nearby town of Pfaffikon although some of the staff already have contracts that take into account a move. In has 14 certification verification engineers working in Germany solely to ensure the helicopter passes EASA certification when it needs to, which is set to be during 2014. The ambition is to deliver the first 10 helicopters in 2015 and then continuously build to between 80 and 120 machines per year.

Marenco has 47 letters of intent which are spread across four continents, from EMS operators to a sightseeing company in Hawaii. Senes is under no illusion of where his market lies. The competition, as he sees it, rests with Eurocopter's AS350B3, Bell Helicopter Textron's 407 and AgustaWestland's AW119 Koala – and his is a brand new aircraft: "Single-engine helicopter owners want to do four missions per day: they want to keep the helicopter working to make money. We have operators that have fleets of 40-50 aircraft – and have had the idea take one of our SKYe SH09s and try it out."
The company has examined ways in which it might market the helicopter to an international audience. "In key markets we want to have a footprint, but we also need a global network," explained Senes. "We have already signed a distributor agreement with HeliFlight in Australia. I am proud they chose us as they have been pioneers in the industry and have always looked to the future."
Is there a military market waiting for the company and its products down the road? "Nearly every aircraft has been painted in khaki at some point in its life," he stated. "Clearly the [military] helicopter industry [owes much] to the difficulty the United States had during the fighting in Vietnam; if they had fought in Belgium, we would all have stayed in cars."
