Number 5
Diversity. Of the 59 National Parks / Protected area in the US each park is very unique all are very different from one another. Fact is within each park there can be massive diversity from one area to the next. we can have Glaciers to wetlands to Rain-forest all in one park. The parks are as diverse as their visitors and this simply amazes me.

April 19th, 2015
So April 18th kicks of National Parks week and I love everything about our National Park system and what they offer us and visitors to the US. I figure that this is the perfect time to list my TOP 7 reason I love our parks.
Number 7
They preserve a piece of the past and our national heritage from the best of times to some of our worst times. They offer us a place to learn and a living breathing section of history education.

With the starting of a new fine art gallery and the opening looming just a few short weeks away (about 6-8) and with the delivery of the first pieces sold made yesterday before e have even opened the doors. And with the day we have been waiting for the first day of move in being tomorrow, I sat down and got to looking at the to do list.
It all got me to reflecting and looking at the list I hand write and carry with me just about everywhere I add to the list constantly and most days it seems for every one thing I cross off I Ad four more. I often even go to the extreme of having multiple list that I have to number or star the important things so I can prioritize what needs to be done. I have tried to digital task managers and list in the past with little success I am sure it is all a state of mind but for me there is something about physically taking a pen and marking through something that is finished and looking at the list once many things are crossed off and it just feels good. Granted when I start from scratch with a blank sheet and make a huge list I have a mini freak out session the funny part is I often we add stuff I have already done just to immediately mark it off to stave off the panic attack.
Point being there is something about making these list that makes me more efficient and more effective. And I am sure there is some scientific study out there that points to some raw data that shows some connection between writing it down and getting it done and some insane % improvement on success but I honestly have not seen or read it. For me thought there is just the facet that it works for me and I can always tell when I haven't got a list going because I am so scattered brained I feel lost. I chalk it up to being an artist and I need help focusing that's my story and I am sticking to it.

I had the great pleasure a few weeks ago to attend my 13yo daughters district band concert and while watching and listening to her and the other students play was the best part I also learned a great lesson from the final conductor for the high school band.
While addressing the audience Dr. Timothy J Robble said� make music interesting not correct�. This stuck with me for the entire performance, So much so that afterwards I had to find the good Dr. and share the impact his statement had. While this Certainly applied to the music that was played. I had the thought about what it may mean in a larger view.
What if we all as artist took this to heart make our art interesting not correct or perfect. Make art that feels the way we feel make art that impacts not only others but ourselves. Let go of all the technical perfection all of the fascination with the gear and tools of our art let go of our fixation with making it perfect just simply make it and make it interesting.

In photography, we are often tempted to go after the easy shot - the low hanging fruit - as it were. In all honesty if the truth be known, it is a fact that we, as artists, have a tendency to be very fragile. As big as our egos can get, we are hurt easily and take things way too personally as well as to heart. It is as a result of this that we reach for the low hanging fruit due to the fact that it is easy to get to. This then gives us the opportunity to do well easily, and to get a nice pleasing acceptable image or piece of art that will be liked and agreeable to the masses.
I once heard, "Sometimes to get to the good fruit you have to take a chance and go out on a limb." The point of this quote is that you should go for a true reward, meaning a reward that is personal to you, and the hell with everyone else's opinion. Within this I am talking about pleasing the inner artist and vision monger that lies within the person that really matters, which is * YOU* the artist. Please heed my advice and take the chance, climb out on that shaky limb and go for the good fruit that will make the art that YOU want to make. Go ahead and make the art that you have to work for. Do not worry about whether or not it is accepted by the masses, rather just worry about making the art that you love and that you want to put in your house or hang on your walls.

I had the great pleasure along with my wife to tech at the USBG. (United State Botanical Gardens) this weekend. One to two times a year we teach a kids art and photography program and in between sessions and lunch I normally get a few free minutes. This year as I was walking around I took one image that drove it home to me just how beautiful and inspiring nature is. This is that image.

Since my last post Ive turned around my poor start to October which is good news. I have reached Brisbane on my travels and will be hanging round here for a while because one of my mates is flying to NZ and back to sort a working visa for Australia as STA travel messed it up.
Yesterday I played the super Tuesday $1k tournament on stars and finished in 20th place, I was never a big stack going into the latter stages and the aggressiveness of my tables made it difficult to find a good spot without a premium hand. In the end I was on around 9 BB's and shoved 78 from the button into 2 stacks that couldn't call me with nothing as it was a fair % of their respective stacks. Unfortunately the SB woke up with TT and the flop was dry for me, the turn gave me a gutshot draw but needed a T to complete it, no miracles and it was over. I played for about 5 hours and got $2200 for m troubles whereas my mate was sat next to me playing 10/20nl the whole time and was up $10k, sigh.
Ive just finished my session on 10/20nl today and won close to $8k, the day before yesterday I was up around $14k for the day so things are getting back on track. The main issue at the moment is the fact that when I play poker the best action is on the ipoker network but my mate (geeforce1) who I'm travelling with also plays 10/20nl and we don't wanna play on the same tables so that's a bit of a ball ache. Tomorrow ill be taking my first shot at winning an Aussie millions seat from the $1k super satellite on full tilt.
Just like to wish Adam goulding (snoopy) hero updater for blonde and regular blogger, the best of luck for day 2 of the London GUKPT event after amassing a nice stack during day 1. Would wish moorman luck but the kipper is out already, lol

Charlton sack Russell Slade and are set to replace him with an unknown Northern Irish boss
Chris O'Loughlin's most recent position was at owner Roland Duchatelet's Belgian club Sint-Truiden
RUSSELL SLADE has been sacked as Charlton boss - and is set to be replaced by relative unknown.
Slade, 56, bit the bullet after Saturday's 3-0 defeat at Swindon left the Addicks 15th in the table.
It means the ex-Cardiff chief lasted just five months at The Valley.
His replacement is Northern Irishman O'Loughlin who has never managed in this country.
The 38-year-old's most recent position was as boss of Belgian outfit Sint-Truiden, owned by hated Charlton owner Roland Duchatelet.
Angry supporters have already conducted various protests against Duchatelet, who last attended a match in October 2014 but refuses to sell up.
And irked fans are hardly likely to be impressed by yet another managerial change - the eighth of Duchatelet's new three-year reign - and another boss without experience in English football.

It is undeniable that Dakota Johnson and Jamie Dornan have the chemistry. Their connection on the big screen paved the way for the success of the "Fifty Shades" franchise. According to reports, the pair will have more steamy love scenes and eventually get married on the next installment, "Fifty Shades Freed."
Jami Dornan's Christian Grey and Dakota Johnson's Anastasia Steele have developed a unique relationship in "Fifty Shades of Grey." They have a lot of steamy bed scenes on the first and second film, but more is coming on the third film as their relationship deepens.
There are rumors that Jamie Dornan and Dakota Johnson's characters will be taking their relationship to the next level and might tie the knot in the next film if it will follow E.L. James's third book, Korean Portal reported. However, fans should still take this report with a grain of salt until the production confirmed it.
Dakota Johnson and Jamie Dornan have been romantically linked due to their intense love scenes in the "Fifty Shades" movies. In fact, there are rumors that the wife of the "Siege of Jadotville" star asked him to file for divorce. However, the pair stressed that what they did was just for the film and continuously deny any romantic ties linking them to each other.
Last week, Jamie Dornan was spotted with wife, Amelia Warner and their kids. They were a picture of a happy family as they headed out and stroll under the sun. The celebrity parents dressed in a low-key garb without a designer label in sight. Jamie Dornan and Amelia Warner carried their tots, Dulce and Elva, Daily Mail reported.
At about the same time, Dakota Johnson was spotted with a handsome mystery man, Daily Mail noted in a separate report. The actress donned a striped T-shirt, mom jeans and loafers while they made their way to a healthy California cuisine restaurant Hugo's.
The "How To Be Single" star dated Matthew Hitt for two years. They pulled the plug for good last year. Dakota Johnson was also linked to Jake Gyllenhaal and Andrew Garfield.

I have a favor to ask... My mom lost the email that your mom sent to her. She wants to email her back but doesn't know her email address to do so without that original email. Could you either give me your mom's email address or ask your mom to email my mom again? That sounds confusing, but I'm sure you understand. My mom is new at this whole email thing and asked me if I could ask you when I mentioned I started reading your blog. Thanks!

Images of Ocean Colour Scene performing live at The Olympia Theatre in Dublin on Monday December 5th 2016
Celebrating the 20th anniversary of their hit studio album 'Moseley Shoals', Ocean Colour Scene made their usual welcomed return to Ireland for the first of two sold out shows at The Olympia Theatre in Dublin on Monday December 5th 2016. Sure where else would a band sell out a Monday and Tuesday… other than Dublin eh? Pissheads! With a set bursting at the seems with plenty of hits amongst the original tracklisting of 'Moseley Shoals' (excluding 40 Past Midnight – due to an absent Oscar Harrison with back injury!) and an epic opening track /cover version of 'Day Tripper' by The Beatles… this surely was an OCS show of epic proportions.

Etiologies for Seizures Around the Time of Vaccination found in 65%!!
Its important to have an expedited evaluation by an epilepsy specialist. JR
Post-immunization epilepsy likely not related to vaccine: study
(Reuters Health) - Children who start having seizures soon after a vaccination and go on to develop epilepsy usually turn out to have an underlying cause of the seizure disorder, according to a new study published in Pediatrics.
"It's reassuring to hear that with follow-up testing, the vast majority of these cases can be identified as coming from a different cause," Dr. Shannon MacDonald told Reuters Health.
In the days after receiving a vaccine, compared to other times, children are two to five times more likely to have a febrile seizure, according to the authors of the new study.
"When a child has its first seizure shortly after a vaccination, and continues to have seizures thereafter, parents may think the vaccination has caused the epilepsy. However, in our study the majority of children who developed epilepsy after a vaccination, had a genetic or structural cause of the epilepsy," Dr. Nienke Verbeek, a clinical geneticist at University Medical Centre Utrecht in The Netherlands, told Reuters Health.
"In these children, the vaccination should only be considered a trigger for the first seizure that thereby unmasks the child's underlying susceptibility for epilepsy," Verbeek added.
Roughly one in every 100 healthy, normally developing children will develop epilepsy after a febrile seizure, according to NINDS, but children with certain conditions, including cerebral palsy and developmental delay, are at greater risk.
To better understand the relationship between febrile seizures and epilepsy, the researchers looked at nearly a thousand children who had a first seizure within several days of being vaccinated. Twenty-six of the children were later diagnosed with epilepsy, and the researchers were able to follow up with 23 of them.
Eight of the children had Dravet syndrome, a rare genetic condition in which seizures may be brought on by fever, infectious disease, or vaccination. Three of the children had developmental delays and structural brain defects that could cause epilepsy. Four other children had gene mutations that could cause epilepsy, brain malformations, or a family history of the disease.
"Although no underlying cause was detected in one-third of children with epilepsy with vaccination-related onset, a genetic basis of epilepsy in these children is still possible: genetic analyses were incomplete, some children had positive family histories for seizures, and molecular defects underlying many genetically determined epilepsies have yet to be discovered," Verbeek and her colleagues write.
"For parents it is important to understand that a genetic cause (a so called DNA-mutation) for epilepsy cannot be induced by vaccinations," Verbeek told Reuters Health. " These mutations are already present in the child before it is born. They may have been transmitted by one of the parents, but more commonly have occurred spontaneously around the time of conception."
The findings "provide a pretty strong case that this was not caused by the vaccination," Dr. Jorn Olsen told Reuters Health in a telephone interview.
SOURCE: Pediatrics, online September 15, 2014.
OBJECTIVES: This study was an assessment of the incidence, course, and etiology of epilepsy with vaccination-related seizure onset in a population-based cohort of children.
METHODS: The medical data of 990 children with seizures after vaccination in the first 2 years of life, reported to the National Institute for Public Health and Environment in the Netherlands in 1997 through 2006, were reviewed. Follow-up data were obtained of children who were subsequently diagnosed with epilepsy and had had seizure onset within 24 hours after administration of an inactivated vaccine or 5 to 12 days after a live attenuated vaccine.
RESULTS: Follow-up was available for 23 of 26 children (median age: 10.6 years) with epilepsy onset after vaccination. Twelve children developed epileptic encephalopathy, 8 had benign epilepsy, and 3 had encephalopathy before seizure onset. Underlying causes were identified in 15 children (65%) and included SCN1A–related Dravet syndrome (formerly severe myoclonic epilepsy of infancy) or genetic epilepsy with febrile seizures plus syndrome (n = 8 and n= 1, respectively), a protocadherin 19 mutation, a 1qter microdeletion, neuronal migration disorders (n = 2), and other monogenic familial epilepsy (n= 2).
CONCLUSIONS: Our results suggest that in most cases, genetic or structural defects are the underlying cause of epilepsy with onset after vaccination, including both cases with preexistent encephalopathy or benign epilepsy with good outcome. These results have significant added value in counseling of parents of children with vaccination-related first seizures, and they might help to support public faith in vaccination programs.

Fourth-Liners have field day against disinterested Wild
By Wild Road Tripper
If the Minnesota Wild would have shown any semblance of what head coach Todd Richards says is a 'compete level' on Wednesday night, that would have been absolutely the right thing.
As the score indicated, however, they didn't, as the Chicago Blackhawks showed the third-worst team in the Western Conference what it takes to actually be in the running to win the Western Conference, as the Hawks dismantled the Wild 4-0 in front of 18,933 at Xcel Energy Center.
The Hawks' fourth line comprised three of the four goals, as Tomas Kopecky scored twice, with Ben Eager adding a goal and two assists of his own, as the Hawks snapped a three-game losing streak (two of those, to the otherwise hapless Columbus Blue Jackets) as the Wild continue their win one, lose one theme of the final weeks of the 2009-2010 season. The Wild are now 3-3-0 in their last six games, and are 3-7-1 against the Central Division since New Years' Day.
The Wild keep up with the 'face the best in the West' week as they close the homestand against the San Jose Sharks in the Next Game: Tomorrow night (Friday, April 2), 7:00 PM Central (5:00 PM Pacific) Time, Xcel Energy Center.

I agree with House Republican Leader John Boehner (R-OH) when he shouted:
Shame on us. Shame on this body. Shame on everyone of you who substitutes your will and your desires above those of your fellow countrymen.That's right, shame on John Boehner and each and every Republican who voted NO on health care reform and threw their constituents' interests under the bus for their own will of defeating the Democrats.

Facebook's (NASDAQ:FB) IPO assigned the company a market value of $90 billion. Since then, the company's market price plunged down to about $77 billion. Even with the plunge, the market still values Facebook more than it values many other companies including these companies:
Citigroup (NYSE:C): One of the largest banks in the world. The company earns about $11 billion annually with revenue of $65 billion. The bank has 266,000 employees all over the world and its assets near $2 trillion. The bank's market value is $75 billion.
Bank of America (NYSE:BAC): With assets passing $2 trillion and annual revenues passing $115 billion, Bank of America is valued at $73 billion. The company has over 6 thousand branches and nearly 300,000 employees, but the market thinks that the bank is worth less than Facebook is.
Siemens (SI): Siemens is Germany's GE. The company produces a well range of electronics including but not limited to home electronics, and many tools used in healthcare and engineering. Last year, the company earned near $7 billion. It is also worth about $73 billion according to the market.
Home Depot (NYSE:HD): The company operates 2300 stores that exceed 100,000 square feet each. It offers thousands of products and earns over $4 billion annually. The company is also growing aggressively by opening new stores and acquiring some smaller companies. The market prices the company at $72 billion.
UPS (NYSE:UPS): This company is valued at $71 billion by the market. The logistics company operates in almost every country in the world and delivers millions of packages on daily basis. In 2011, the company delivered 4 billion packages, generating it revenue of $53 billion. The company's net income was near $4 billion in the same year.
Kraft Foods (KFT): This is one of the largest food producers in the world. The company markets its products in more than 170 countries around the world. It has 220 production facilities in 80 different countries. The company earns $3.5 annually and its valued at $68 billion by the market.
ConocoPhillips (NYSE:COP): Valued at $65 billion by the market, ConocoPhillips is one of the largest oil companies in the world. The company earned $11.5 billion last year.
In addition, Facebook is more valuable than industry giants such as Boeing (NYSE:BA), Caterpillar (NYSE:CAT), 3M (NYSE:MMM), Honda Motor (NYSE:HMC), Ford (NYSE:F) finance giants such as American Express (NYSE:AXP), Goldman Sachs (NYSE:GS) and Mastercard (NYSE:MA), companies like Ebay (NASDAQ:EBAY) and Nike (NYSE:NKE) along with many others. Does it even make sense?
In the coming quarters, Facebook will have a huge pressure to perform. Currently the company has a lot of potential as it holds detailed data regarding every 7th person on earth; however it has failed to turn most of its potential into profits. I don't think investors will be patient with Facebook for long if the results don't come soon. Currently Facebook only earns about $650 million per year. If we sort companies by net income, Facebook compares with companies such as Ross Stores (NASDAQ:ROST) Nordstrom (NYSE:JWN) and Tyson Foods (NYSE:TSN).
Facebook's peers in net income usually enjoy a market value between $5 billion and $13 billion. If Facebook fails to convert its potential into real earnings, it may be dancing with these guys with a similar market value. Will they do it? Time will tell. For now, I don't recommend buying, selling, or shorting this stock. My recommendation is to wait a couple quarters and see how it performs financially before making any decision in any direction.

The Shattered Star
This powerful Djinn is a Vizier to Sultan Zafir XXXVIII on the Plane of Air.
Barukael is an ally to the Emissars of the Crossroads and has used powerful Wishes in order to help the group defeat the return of a powerful avatar of an evil deity. Kane temporarily died during the conflict and Barukael brought him back through one of his wishes. Barukael brought the group back to Golarion as well after they shifted to another plane while in search of the Shard of Sloth. Also this powerful Noble helped free the Elementalist and Keeper of the Four Winds, Merien Janus, by acquiring a Freedom scroll from the Palace Market of the Sultan himself. Barukael has become a friend of Jaidin's and the entire group through his sacrificial efforts.

Review of: Home Front by Kristin Hannah
Jolene Larson is a soldier. She has always been a soldier. Flying helicopters is what she did. Then the moment all soldiers train for happened...she was deployed. Deployment was to happen in two short weeks. Her family was already fragmented and fragile. Now she had to tell them she was going off to war. Jolene and her husband Michael were already having marital problems and deployment just added to them. A busy attorney, Michael didn't approve of the war and thought Jolene crazy for agreeing to go. The only solace Jolene had was her best friend was going with her to war. As difficult as it was to prepare, she did and then off to war she went. Michael and the children had to adjust, to change to meet the requirements of their "new" life. He was angry at Jolene and didn't even bother to tell her he loved her. A moment all families pray will never happen, happens. It throws the Larson family into a situation none of them were ready for. Now the real work begins. Rebuilding.
I love this book! It is very difficult to read if you have someone or know someone who is actively serving right now. This book gives a wonderful account of what it's like from both sides of the fence. The soldier's account, thoughts and issues. The family left behind and there to pick up the pieces when the soldier comes home. It's not as easy as everyone says for soldiers to come home and " be normal."
The only thing I found wrong with this book is that someone hadn't written it long before now. It could have served as a handbook for the soldiers and their families before this war started.
I give this one 5 out of 5 books and pray for the safe return of the soldiers in your life.

It's here, it's the 15th of June, the sun is shining (sort of), and it's another day of fine living.
It's easy to see the world as a dark and terrible place after experiences like ours, but the world is still as it was, and things can still roll your way.
So I defy you to come up with some things today that you're pleased about. Doesn't just have to be today, anything recent is good!
For example, last night I went to see some friends at the pub, I made it all the way through, had a couple of beers, and it was all in all a great night. Felt like the old days, and it felt like that they're still possible now.
See? Easy enough, post away!

Two minutes later, I was standing on the roof of the Benway, scratching my head and looking up into a clear, blue sky that was empty of everything but a few fleecy clouds. There was nothing up there that even remotely resembled a dirigible.
But there were several columns of dense, oily smoke rising toward the sky from various spots in the downtown area, accompanied by the anguished cries of a distressed citizenry. I could hear several sirens, large and small, coming from every direction.
I opened up my senses and let them probe the world around me. Almost immediately, I picked up some unusual vibrations. They seemed to be coming from several distinct sources, very similar to each other, but not quite the same. The pitch varied subtly from one source to the next. I was able to isolate six different sources of the vibrations. They were mechanical, most likely produced by large and powerful engines of some sort. And they were coming from above.
There was something up there, alright. Several somethings, in fact, and they were large and invisible-- much like whatever it was that had treated my expensive and lovingly-tended decor so brutally and made off with Anonymoushka.
J. Alfred Prufrock stuck his head out of the doorway in the side of the roof cupola. "Is everything alright?"
"Proofy, my lad," I said, ignoring his idiotic query, "please nip back downstairs and fetch me the item in locker 221."
His eyebrows went up. "You mean the..." His voice trailed off.
"Yes," I said firmly. "I mean the. Quickly, now, before my opportunity vanishes. Time to eat the peach, old boy! And be careful with it! We don't need any more holes in our walls."
He darted back down the rabbit hole, reappearing four minutes later, accompanied by Gregor Samsa. Strapped to the giant insect's broad, chitinous back was a curious-looking contraption-- a metal tube, approximately four feet long, fitted with hand grips and a trigger assembly.
Here was a very interesting little toy I had in my possession (never mind how it got there), a device developed by Dr. Robert H. Goddard for the army during the First World War. He called it a Rocket-Powered Recoilless Weapon-- a precursor to the modern bazooka. I had made a few modifications of my own on Goddard's original design-- which, now that I think of it, arguably makes me one of the world's earliest rocket scientists.
The thing was loaded and ready for action. I loosened the straps and hefted it up onto my shoulder. It had a complex sighting apparatus affixed to the upper side, which would be useless right now.
I closed my eyes and focused my other senses on the vibrations. One of the six sources had broken off from the others, and seemed to be headed out over Zenith Bay. Perfect! Blindly, I aimed the bazooka in that direction and fired. Opening my eyes, I watched the projectile streak across the last few city blocks and on out over the open water of the Bay, and started a silent countdown. Six... five... four... three...
That's the best I can do in the way of onomatopoeia. It didn't actually sound like that at all, but you get the point, I'm sure. I had scored a very palpable hit, and was rewarded with a spectacular explosion. I had been two seconds off in my calculations, but the invisible dirigible-- which had just become spectacularly visible-- was still far enough out that there were no inconvenient bystanders dawdling around beneath the explosion to be buried under flaming junk.
And there was plenty of it. I saw the actual explosion first, then large chunks of burning debris became visible. Whatever was making the airship invisible had just been vaporized. Among the falling wreckage-- twisted, flaming bits of metal and canvas-- were some thirty or forty flailing figures. Oh, the humanity! It was possible that some of them would survive the plunge into the Bay. It was probable that none of them would.
I hoped Anonymoushka was not among them. There was no genuine enmity between us. She had only been obeying the dictates of whatever the hell it was that dictated to her. She was an intriguing individual, and she made me look normal, which I could appreciate, as I occasionally fell prey to doubts about my own sanity. And, of course, she had seemed to know things I very much wanted to learn. The world and I would be poorer for her absence, it seemed to me.
"Get back to the phone," I said to Prufrock, "and ring Stanley again. Tell him I got one, and he should send the Harbor Patrol out to have a look. If he asks any questions, tell him you don't know anything."
"I don't know anything, sir."
"Then you won't have to prevaricate. Tell Stanley I'm on it, and I'll give him a full report after I've done some more fact-finding."
Proofy nodded and scurried back into the building. I closed my eyes and turned around in a circle, stretching my senses to pinpoint the rest of the dirigible fleet.
Sadly, the other airships had moved inland, and I didn't dare shoot them down. But, under the circumstances, one out of six was pretty good. It would give somebody something to think about. I set the bazooka down.
"What will you do now?" Gregor asked. I still found it somewhat disconcerting to hear human language coming out of that very inhuman mouth. It wasn't exactly a voice-- rather, it was a multi-layered sequence of clicks and pops that somehow managed to form intelligible words. A native speaker of Czech and German, Gregor had been studying English with a will, and could converse more effectively than most Americans, even those not hampered by having been transformed into enormous insects.
"I don't know," I replied forthrightly. "I can't shoot any more of them down. Civilian casualties are more trouble than they're worth. I'd sure like to know how they make themselves invisible."
"I'm sorry?" Gregor said, cocking his head. "What do you mean, invisible?"
"I mean they can't be seen."
"You don't see them?"
I gave him a look. "You seem to be implying that you do," I said.
Before he could respond to that, a small commotion invaded the roof. Proofy had returned, followed by Stymie, Patience and Prudence. Prufrock and young Master Beard were chattering away, while the girls raked everything around them with their identical steely glares. They were like a couple of tightly compressed metal springs, looking for a reason to break loose. A fierce, implacable energy radiated from them, and I sensed that they were more alert than I had ever been in my life-- ready for absolutely anything. I was surprised to note that each of them held a small pistol; I had never seen them handle firearms before. It just seemed superfluous, somehow.
"What are you doing up here?" I demanded.
"We wanted to see what was going on," said Prufrock. "I thought it would be alright, since the airships are gone."
"We wanted to have a look," Stymie chimed in. "I never saw a dirigible before."
"Nor will you now," I said. "That doesn't mean they're gone, though." I turned back to Gregor and repeated the last remark I'd made to him.
"Certainly," he said. "I suppose my eyes are sensitive to portions of the light spectrum outside the range of human perception." He reared up on his four hindmost legs and waved the two front ones toward the rest of the city, in the direction opposite the Bay.
"There are five of them out there," he said, "moving further inland. Less than half a mile away, I would say. They're spreading out rapidly."
"Five of them, you say?"
"That's right," the bug said, nodding his sleek little head. "And, of course, the much smaller one right above us. I didn't know if it counted or not."
"Well, of course it... WHAT!?!"
"The one right up there." He pointed a feeler at a spot almost directly over our heads. "You don't see that one, either? It isn't a dirigible. More like a small passenger balloon with a gondola slung underneath."
Looking up, I saw something that was not at all typical. A hand and part of an arm, with nothing else attached to them, apparently hanging in midair some twenty or thirty feet above my head. The hand was holding a metal cylinder. I didn't like the looks of this.
"What in the world is that?" I wondered aloud.
"You see the arm?" Gregor said. "It must be outside of whatever is making the rest of the thing invisible to you."
"What is it holding?" I said.
"Things being what they usually are around here," said Prufrock, "that metal thing is probably some kind of compact infernal device. Explosive, I shouldn't wonder."
"We can't know that," I replied, "but it's probably safe to assume we should... Everybody get back downstairs!"
My sudden sense of urgency was inspired by the fact that the disembodied arm had twitched, and the hand had released the cylinder. It was tumbling end over end and would strike the roof in a matter of seconds. Glancing at my companions, who were too confused to carry out my command, I knew there was no way they would ever get off the roof in time. Patience and Prudence seemed unperturbed, but even they could not circumvent the laws of physics. Probably. As far as I knew.
Displaying remarkable presence of mind, not to mention the selfless valor that is my hallmark, I ran toward the edge of the roof-- a section where the safety railing had collapsed, probably when the wall below it had been knocked out-- watching the object's descent and making a few quick calculations. When the trajectories converged, I jumped up and snatched the thing out of the air.
Now came the tricky part. I was moving forward at a pretty good clip, and would run out of roof before I ran out of momentum. So I did the only thing that hidebound old bore Sir Isaac Newton would permit me to do.
I plunged right over the edge.
The closest piece of solid ground was 71 stories below me, and it was rushing up to say hello. I had no clever gadget on my person designed with such a situation in mind. I pride myself on my extraordinary preparedness, but I mean, really...
It wasn't tricky at all, I reflected. It was quite simple. The Black Centipede was going to end his days as a grease spot on the pavement. That is, of course, if the bomb didn't go off before he got there.
Either way...

The Sustainable Future Conundrum
Starting today and over the next four weeks, I plan to solve the problems that the Indian automotive growth story faces. From emissions to safety and from urban clogging to alternative fuels, I plan to address them all. The solutions range from gun licenses to wooden tops and primary education to body shapers…so bear with me.
A few days back, Piyush Goel - Minister of Power & Renewable Energy, stated that no conventional (fossil fuel powered) cars would be allowed registration after 2030. In simple speak this means that the government is pushing us towards an Electric Vehicle future.
Guys working on future internal combustion engine technologies just took a break to learn Python.
Goel's statement is surprising — till last Friday we were still an economy with a huge power deficit, questionable power quality and mostly running off Sudhirs & Cummins in malls, offices & apartments. We are as far away from EVs as the country's political opposition is from sanity and filling the gap is challenging.
I can make an easy list of things that hold back Piyush Goel's dream. We don't have quality electricity supply, no charging infrastructure, the quality of our plug points suck, there are no investment plans for EV infrastructure and (worse) the government often works in a knee-jerk manner.
The knee-jerk manner is interesting here. When all a congested city like Gurgaon needs is foot overbridges, the government announces Pod Taxis and when all we needed was better primary education, we make airbags mandatory. Sometimes the zeal of performing can overcome logic and we end up buying Beyblades when wooden tops work much better.
Read about: Kabaddi and why Royal Enfield needs to smell the coffee
Coming back to Goel, we cannot take his statement lightly. He is a performer and has worked wonders in rural electrification, achieving more in two years what governments in the last sixty years could not.
So I decided to take Goel seriously and examine why his ambitious target may be achievable.
EVs - Global Trend
First of all, he is on to something as the world is increasingly moving towards an EV future. Talking of the world, let's start with Scandinavia, the global leaders in creating a sustainable future and driving opposite lock.
The Scandinavians are nice, friendly, chilled out people with an ultra-competitive streak. Somehow they know something more than the rest of humanity and are ahead in taking pathbreaking decisions looking far into the future. In almost all cases they lead, the rest of Europe follows and in a few years the world catches on to the new normal.
The Scandinavians are truly wonderful. A few years back they stopped reproducing…
Coming back to cars, Norway is already the global leader in EV sales. In 2015, more than 17% of all cars sold in the country were electric. They were clearly not satisfied with that and in June 2016 decided that 2025 would be the end of the road for all fossil fuel powered cars in the country. No new registrations would be allowed post that.
Not surprisingly, Elon Musk went ballistic with happiness at the announcement.
Norway leading the ban on the poor Internal Combustion Engine (ICE) is surprising, and maybe not. It is surprising because the country derives a huge chunk of its revenues from Petroleum. It is the automotive equivalent of Thailand banning porn.
Wait, it did!
At the same time Norway doesn't surprise me. Considering that they are so high up on the map, I can quite understand them being anal about pollution and global warming.
While the Norway declaration fell through shortly after thanks to politics, the seed has been sown. They have tasted blood and a few months later Oslo banned diesel vehicles from entering the city centre.
Like earlier, the rest of Europe is not far behind. Germany is working on killing fossil fuel automobiles by 2030 while Netherlands would stop registering five years earlier.
And then there is China which is investing a mind-boggling USD 15 billion on its EV infrastructure. There is no date for killing fume emitting cars yet and that may be because of the huge size of the Chinese market.
School Canteen & Lettuce Farmers
The China bit is a bad omen for Goel. Like China, India too is a huge market and would be about twice the present size by 2025.
It is easy banning fast food in a school canteen but difficult to ban burgers across the country in one go even though we know Mcburgers are bad for health. You see, the iceberg lettuce farmers, all 22 of them, will starve.
That's the issue India faces. You cannot change a six million units a year (Source - EMMAAA LV forecast for 2025) light vehicle market by just changing laws. There are massive repercussions that first need to be sorted out. In the perfect case, technology and ecosystem should guide the market rather than regulations.
That has been the weak point of the government. The Indian government has worked on subsidising EVs rather than investing in creating the ecosystem. The result is that no one buys the Mahindra E2O and the other carmakers don't even bother trying.
The Solution
As I promised right at the beginning, this piece is all about suggesting solutions. The Minister can achieve his targets if two things are taken care of - technology & ecosystem.
I don't worry too much about technology. EV makers are now achieving running ranges that make the vehicles suitable for the daily urban commute. The upwards trend of the technology curve means that this range would be extended even further with time. By 2025, we are looking at an EV range of 300-500 km for a small hatchback car.
Cost is again something that I don't worry about much. While EVs may seem like an expensive preposition today, the cost comes down fast when volumes increase. Goel is pushing a big 6 million units per annum pie towards the industry — costs would crash through the floor.
The biggest challenge remains the ecosystem — people just won't buy EVs if the charging infrastructure is not in place. Unfortunately, we haven't started on this yet. If the Minister is serious about achieving his targets, he should focus on making charging points mandatory in the basements of all buildings sanctioned hereafter. The older ones would have to be retrofitted. This is a huge task and needs political will, something that this government should have in plenty.
A more palatable solution may be to run EV pilot projects — identify towns where the registration of fossil fuelled powered vehicles should be banned right away. These can be heritage/tourist places like Agra or hill towns like Mussoorie still clinging on to the last shreds of green cover. The same may be extended to any new city being planned. Buyers in these pockets should be heavily incentivised by the government to buy EVs.
Ohh, don't forget to ban the conventional three-wheelers as well. It creates pollution — air & noise both.
This serves three benefits — first, the air quality in these places improves as fume emitting vehicles are slowly removed. Second, as the government would need to create the charging ecosystem, the considerable investment would flow into these places raising the infrastructure levels. This is a big benefit as most of these places attract foreign tourists and are yet quite short of quality infrastructure.
Third, and the most important, it creates an automatic guaranteed demand for a considerable volume of EVs. This will keep factories running and attract greater investment into the technology ecosystem, something that is important for creating the other end of the equation. We currently have one electric car manufacturer going through a rough phase and no one else willing to jump in. This has to change for a long-term sustainable development.
Next week I look at automotive safety and why we need painters and not airbags.

LESCZNSKI, APPELLANT,v.PITTSBURGH RAILWAYS COMPANY.
Appeal, No. 88, March T., 1962, from judgment of Court of Common Pleas of Allegheny County, April T., 1956, No. 1032, in case of Josephine Lescznski, administratrix of estate of Stanley Lescznski, deceased, v. Pittsburgh Railways Company. Judgment affirmed.
F. E. Conflenti, for appellant.
Leo Daniels, with him Prichard, Lawler & Geltz, for appellee.
Before Bell, C.j., Musmanno, Jones, Eagen and Keim, JJ.
Author: Jones
[ 409 Pa. Page 103]
[ 409 Pa. Page 104]
This is an appeal from a judgment entered in a trespass action upon a verdict, directed by the trial court, in favor of Pittsburgh Railways Company (Railways) and against Josephine Lescznski, administratrix of the Estate of Stanley Lescznski (Lescznski).
The factual background of the accident which gave rise to this litigation has been well stated by the court below: "... Stanley Lescznski, a seventy-nine year old man, was struck and killed by a trolley operated by [Railways'] employee on Main Street in the Borough of Sharpsburg. The accident occurred at about 4:15 p.m. on April 17, 1954. Main Street is a four lane highway, 32 feet wide, running in an east-west direction with two trolley tracks occupying the center of the cartway. At the time in question [Lescznski] was standing on the North side of Main Street on the East side of its intersection with Nineteenth Street as extended. There was no evidence of the manner in which he crossed the street other than the statement of [Lescznski's] witness, the trolley operator, who said that he crossed from left (North) to right (South) ... He was next observed at the time he was struck by [Railways'] eastbound street car. There was no testimony that the trolley was speeding or had failed to stop as quickly as possible when the danger was first observed. Sand deposted on the tracks by the braking system of the street car shows that the operator of the trolley applied the brakes and stopped the car within 45 feet. ... The testimony further indicates that the point of impact was the southeast corner of the intersection of Main Street and Nineteenth Street. This is a 'T' intersection as Nineteenth Street extends South from Main Street but not to the North of that highway. [Lescznski] was found lying partly beneath the cow catcher on the under side of the front of the car. ... At the time of the accident, 4:15 p.m., Main Street was dry and clear and traffic was said to be
[ 409 Pa. Page 105]
generally light at this time .... The street ... is level and without curvature for more than 200 feet in either direction from the point of impact. It must, therefore, be inferred that both parties had an equal opportunity to observe each other."
Lescznski instituted an action, under both the survival and wrongful death statutes, in the Court of Common Pleas of Allegheny County against Railways claiming that Lescznski's death had been caused by the negligence of the Railways' operator of the trolley car. At trial, at the conclusion of Lescznski's and the Railways' testimony, the court directed the jury to return a verdict in favor of Railways and against Lescznski. A motion for a new trial was dismissed and the court directed the entry of judgment on the verdict and, from that judgment, this appeal was taken.
The trial court below directed the verdict on two grounds: (1) that Lescznski had failed to prove that Railways was negligent and (2) that the testimony indicated that Lescznski had been contributorily negligent as a matter of law. The propriety ...

Driving can be stressful enough, but if you have a high-strung dog pacing from side to side in the backseat, or -- heaven forbid -- hiding under your seat or crawling around under your pedals, you have a real safety hazard on your hands. Unless a pup is well-socialized for car rides, even a brief trip can be an anxiety-filled experience. Keeping a hyper dog calm in the car takes patience, some common sense and desensitization, but the reward of being able to travel with your pet is worth it.
Secure the Dog
A dog who is hyper or anxious should never ride unrestrained in the car. Place your dog in a crate secured by the seat belts in the car, or fasten her into a crash-test certified dog restraint harness. Dogs are den animals; they often feel most secure enclosed inside a crate. Resting comfortably in her bed inside a crate that is covered with a towel may be just the thing to alleviate her anxiety. Lisa Peterson of The American Kennel Club advises to place the crate in the middle seat and row of the car -- as opposed to the very back of an SUV -- and have the dog facing forward to expose her to less movement and minimize motion sickness.
This approach will take time and dedication on your part, but can go a long way with pets who are afraid, uncomfortable or anxious in the car. Start by putting the dog in the car with you for several minutes each day; you don't even have to turn the car on or drive away. "...Some people think the reason is necessary to get dog training tips preceding to getting their pets. Many people might find this interesting but a lot of people might concur that this is a great tip to follow. The issue with some pet owners is they will get a dog and then find out that they are simply not suitable to take care of them. Finally, they would abandon their pets in order to bring back their old lives. These dog training tips can let people understand what they should take care of and if they have the time to coach their dogs. These suggestions could be found on Secrets To Dog Training. By taking the time to perform appropriate dog training, you will delight in a lifetime of relaxed friendship with your ".... Sit quietly and calmly with the dog, stroking her coat and offering lots of praise; then return her to the house. After doing this for several days, the ASPCA suggests introducing short rides for a couple of days, once or twice a day, always remaining calm and quiet while giving your dog praise. If the dog doesn't exhibit signs of anxiety -- panting, drooling, trembling or whining, try a five-minute drive in your own familiar neighborhood and slowly work up to longer drives.
Take Your Dog to Fun Places
If you only put your dog into the car to take her to the vet, you can imagine how she might associate fear with riding in the car. Alleviate this by making sure the majority of your car trips together are somewhere fun, like a visit with your friends, a puppy play date or a trip to the park, even if it's just located down the street. Bring her along to pet stores and other establishments that allow dogs. Make it a happy time and she'll come to associate a car ride with pleasure, not anxiety.
Diversionary Tactics
An exercised and tired dog is less likely to be anxious in the car. If you are taking your pet on a road trip, provide lots of stimulation before you go. Take her favorite ball or toy, and stop frequently to give your dog time to stretch her legs, potty, drink water and get some quick playtime in if possible. Give your dog a complicated treat that she has to work at to eat, such as a rubber toy stuffed with peanut butter or cheese. For severe anxiety or for carsickness, ask your veterinarian for advice. He may recommend an herbal calming agent or medication to treat the dog for motion sickness.

Liberals love abortion, embracing it as a woman's "choice" and a way for poor women to get out of poverty. And since they see abortion as a universal good, they tend to ignore what abortion has done in places like China, where girls are so despised that the sex imbalance will have devastating consequences in the 21st century. How do feminists justify their support of abortion in places such as this?

The Glider and Ottoman have been ordered for the Nursery design. We finally decided to get the chair that had the cleaner lines (minus) the skirt around the bottom. Plus, the chair in this design appeared to have more cushion for your back. Next, the knobs for dresser/changing table have been bought. I decided to get knobs from Anthropologie, Zinna pull handles in Green with pewter and Melon Zinna knobs in aqua and pink. The dresser has three drawers. The top pulls will go on the top drawer since this drawer is narrow and different from the other two. Next, we must finish the sanding and painting for the changing table and attach the piece on top that we purchased from the pottery barn outlet that converts the dressser into a changing table. Then the plan is to line the drawers with fabric.

Short Romantic Love Stories (2)
A boy was dating a girl who always hurt him. One day, she broke up with him and told him, "I don't ever want to see you again."
A few months later, the girl had a change of heart. She realized that she loved the boy, so she went back and said to him, "Give me just one more chance. I love you and I need you. I promise that I will never hurt you again."
But the boy just laughed and said to her, "Only a fool would take back someone who hurt them so much."
The girl felt hopeless and began to cry, but the boy put his arms around her, held her tightly and said, "...and I am one of those fools."
Short Romantic Love Stories
One night a guy and a girl were driving home from the movies. The boy sensed there was something wrong because of the painful silence they shared between them that night. The girl then asked the boy to pull over because she wanted to talk. She told him that her feelings had changed and that it was time to move on.
A silent tear slid down his cheek as he slowly reached into his pocket & passed her a folded note.
At that moment, a drunk driver was speeding down that very same street. He swerved right into the drivers seat, killing the boy. Miraculously, the girl survived. Remembering the note, she pulled it out & read it. "Without your love, I would die."
Small StepsA girl asked a boy if she was pretty, he said "No". She asked him if he wanted to be with her forever, he said "No". Then she asked him if he would cry if she walked away, he said "No". She had heard enough; she needed to leave.
As she walked away he grabbed her arm and told her to stay. He said "You're not pretty, you're beautiful. I don`t want to be with you forever, I need to be with you forever. And I wouldn't cry if you walked away, I would die."

In performing a quick review of SEC filings of large corps with an SEC State Location Code in Oregon, I only found two Big Corps…..Nike and Precision Castparts…and then there's quite a gap to the third largest.
Below here is the effective state corporate income tax rates paid, which are computed by dividing the current state corporate income tax paid by the consolidated pretax income, both in total for the past twelve years for both of these large Oregon Corps. These two larger Oregon Corps below had a weighted average state corporate effective income tax rate paid of only 2.69%, or a 66% discount to Oregon's current state corporate income tax rate of 7.90%.
….…………………….................Tax……….Pretax………Tax Rate
….……………….….................(Millions of Dollars)
..2. Nike…………...................532……...19,355……...2.75%
..1. Precision Castparts........188……....7,368……...2.55%
Total of both………...............720….....26,723……...2.69%
For the most recent year, the total weighted state effective corporate income tax rate for these two Oregon Corps was an even lower 2.17%.
And then, below here is a summary of what I call a fair measure of the Total State Corporate Income Tax Loopholes Taken by these two larger Oregon Corps for the past twelve years. In estimating what I think is a fair measurement of State Corporate Income Tax Loopholes Taken, for ease of computation, I started by multiplying the current Oregon Corporate Income Tax Rate of 7.90% by the total Consolidated Pretax Income of both of these larger Oregon Corps for the last twelve years. Then, I subtracted the actual total State Corporate Income Taxes Paid by these two Corps for the same twelve years.
………………….........………….....Tax……..Tax Rate…...State Tax
………………..........………….......Rate……....Paid…....Last 12 Years
…………………………………………………...................(Millions of dollars)
1.. Nike...…………................7.90%.......2.75%.............997
2.. Precision Castparts.......7.90%.......2.55%.............394
Total of 2………………………………………….1,391 (yeah, $1.4 bil)
For the past six years, the estimated total State Corporate Income Tax Loopholes Taken by these two Oregon Corps was $1.1 bil, as compared to $1.4 bil for the past twelve years.
I think it makes much more sense to balance a State's budget by closing some of the larger Corp State Corporate Income Tax Loopholes, rather than by significantly reducing critical state services like education and citizen protection.
Also, I think it makes sense to use some of the funds from the closing of these larger Corp State Income Tax Loopholes to provide some wise, highly stimulative, directly-targeted, job-creating tax incentives to small and medium-sized businesses.
When you think about it, the Portland area is a hotbed for young, very bright citizens. However, the Portland area has all of this incredible innovative expertise that is presently dormant. It needs to be unleashed in order to make the US more competitive on the world scene. And it also needs to be unleashed to bring the country out of its horrible jobless recovery. Principally the US government, but also the State Government, need to create the strong stimulative environment to permit the key Portland area to thrive economically. Clearly, smart tax incentives are needed here, primarily targeted at research and technology, and particularly at computer software, computer infrastructure, and green energy.
For maximum positive effect to the US economy and to US job creation, I think the US government should let businesses have a choice on the capital expenditures, including computer software investments, they make.....they could either take 100% first year expensing, or they could instead choose a refundable investment tax credit.
Also, from a fairness standpoint, the above effective Corporate State Income Tax Rate Paid in the most recent year by these two Oregon Corps of only 2.17% is substantially below the Oregon current individual state income tax rate, which is 9.0% for income from $7,650 to $125,000, 10.8% for income from $125,000 to $250,000, and 11.0% for income above $250,000.

Back From Hiatus
Long time no blog! But, here I am, almost a year later, and taking my place back on YouTube as a reviewer. So keep your eyes open in the coming weeks for new videos! I may also do a few non e-cig related videos to get the ball rolling, and to fill in gap times between models. I hope everyone is ready, I know I am!
