In my recruitment of property owners in the Miraloma Park and Sunnyside areas of San Francisco, I have received many responses from people that were interested but concerned about the limited sidewalk width issues that the city mandates perhaps for ADA considerations.
I brought this up with FUF and they came back with this;
"I've gotten more details about the narrow sidewalks in Miraloma Park that makes it a difficult neighborhood to plant. Basically, it just requires a little bit of creativity and each basin that we cut out and place a tree into needs to have at a certain amount of substance put back into the basin on the outer edges. We can apparently acquire the material that needs to be put back in cheaply, and it isn't a big expense, although it might add a few bucks per person. Then we need to tell our counterparts at the city's Bureau of Urban Forestry that that's what we are doing. Those details are all what our arborists work out, and I think the best thing to do would be to talk to one of our arborists to get a better sense of what to tell folks to expect, so they know its not completely straightforward."
So, please hang in there and we will make this happen.

S: Elijah's Journal By: Joe #10
FC: Elijah's Journal
1: Elijah's Journal By:Joe #10
2: February 16,1822 My name be Elijah Freeman. I'd be eleven years old. I live in Buxton. Buxton be a settlement for slaves that got free. Buxton be located in Canada. In Buxton I have one ma and one pa. They be really good parents. Sadly they were not born free like I was. I have no siblings atall. The only place that has white people that are nice is Chatham and I go there sometimes. | Journal Entry #1
3: February 23,1822 Today my friend Cooter came runin' up to me.He be try'n to talk to me but he just kept on jabbering. Finally he be sayin' that there be some animal tracks and that he don't know what animal the tracks belonged to.This be a surprise to me. Cooter be the best at finding out what animal the tracks belonged to. So we went to the animal tracks.The tracks be circular. Then the preacher came over to us. When he saw the tracks he said "Oh,no! These be hoop snake tracks." Then I said "What are hoop snakes." The preacher said that if you get bit by one of them hoop snakes you blow up and then starve to death. Next the preacher said "Elijah, promise me that if I were to get bitten by one of them hoop snakes that you would put a bullet in my head before I blow up."Then basically I ran faster than the fastest horse ever and nearly blew up from screaming. I went home and my ma said "Boy what the heck is wrong with you is is it cuz you too darn fra-gile." I told my ma about everything that just happened and she said "boy you can't die twice and there is no such thing as a hoop snake!" | Journal Entry #2
4: February 26,1822 On the first day that the settlement of Buxton was open,We had a parade. In the parade there be three important people. I was one of the three important people. I be one of the three important people because I was the first child born free in Buxton. So anyway another one of the three important people started talking and throwin me in the air. Then I sort of threwed up some chunks all over him. Then my ma came up and aimed my throw up out the window. This event will stick with me for the rest of my natural born life. | Journal Entry #3
5: March 7,1822 Today after school My pa sent me to Chatham to get the mail. When I got there the post office was closed and the sign on the door said that if I wanted to see the mail man I would have to go to the dry goods store. I went to the dry goods store and the man got me the mail. There waren't a lot of mail. But there be a letter that caught my eye. The letter was to Mrs.Holton from America! This be really bad! This letter could say that Mrs.Holton's husband could have died in slavery. So I got my ma and some other ladies and brought food to Mrs.Holton's house. Then I read the letter to Mrs.Holton and it did say that her husband died in slavery. Then Mrs.Holton didn't even cry but said "let's eat." | Journal Entry #4
6: March 16,1822 Today I decided to sneak around. Then right when I was in the good part of sneaking around someone came up and grabbed me. That person be Mr.Leroy. Mr.Leroy darn kidnapped me. Then Mr.Leroy stopped dragging me and said that we were gonna have to get his money back from the preacher. We went to America. First we thanked a man for saving our friend. Then when we were leaving the man that we thanked Mr.Leroy fell off the horse. I got off the horse and Mr.Leroy was goin' crazy. Then a thick red liquid came out of his mouth and nose. I knowed he was dead. Then I went to the stable that the preacher was at. He was dead. Then I saw six people that were about to go back to slavery. They were all chained up except for the baby. I went to get help to get those slaves out of there. The people that I thought would help wouldn't help. So I went back to the slaves and asked if I could take the baby to Buxton. They said yes and that was the last time I would see them. Then I took the baby to freedom but I did that the right way. | Journal Entry #5
7: If I could meet the main character I would ask him how the baby was doing. Then I would ask if they had a proper funeral for Mr.Leroy. Next I would ask if he could chunk some stones for me. I would ask him that because he can chunk stones really well. This is what I would do if I could meet the main character. | Journal Entry #6

San Francisco's Ty Segall is set to drop one of Record Store Day's most essential releases on Saturday, April 16, as he rips through 6 Marc Bolan classics on his new T. Rex covers EP, Ty Rex. One of the highlights on the limited 12″ is Segall's soulful, fuzzed-out take on "Fist Heart Mighty Dawn Dart," the 1970 psych-folk jammer from a not-yet-quite-fully-glammed-out Bolan. Listen below, and pick up the Ty Rex 12″ at your local record store this Saturday. You can also snag the limited clear vinyl version at one of Ty's upcoming live shows, or from Goner.

My favourite piece, with many quotable phrases. I can almost believe the section in italics. The language theme is sustained throughout the piece. If you want to know about orange, sunflowers, train gauges or even multidimensional grammars, this is the story for you - an oasis of humour in a collection that's not exactly a laugh a minute. "just use your imagination" the narrator's told. This narrator addresses his readers more directly than the others do.
The collection might well have been called "Method of Loci" because so many of the stories involve people going to places in the way that others might eat madelaines.
I've visited Morocco, Interrailing. The ticket collector comes from there, nothing else. Once back in Spain I got mugged strolling along the shore at night. Next day I found the possessions of mine that they'd discarded, including this picture of a leather treatment workshop.

Persona Q Preview - Clearing Dungeons Has Never Been Cuter
Persona Q Preview - Clearing Dungeons Has Never Been Cuter
Go dungeon-crawling in one of many Atlus' Persona spinoffs, Persona Q: Shadow of the Labyrinth.
I was never expecting it to be as good as Persona 3 or 4, but it should still be a fun game nonetheless. I'm a little worried about the "technically" canon aspect though. The extended canon for the Persona universe is already getting kind of dumb to be honest (what's with that Naoto manga?!).
Also hoping they have a good explanation why everyone can suddenly use other Personas >.>
Why is this not out yet? ;.;
Are the battles still in third person? Half the charm of Persona (4 especially) is seeing everyone do their own thing mid-turn.
Pretty sure that's non-canon.
And with this, it's probably going to be some groundhog day type of situation where it all takes place in the same day and then whatever the thing that had merged their worlds together is gotten rid off, they'll just have the memories of their experience with each other completely erased when things return back to normal.
So even if it is canon, it will still end up being completely irrelevant in the grand scheme of things.
It has something to do with the wild card ability resonating due both The P3 and P4 protagonists being within the same area.
It's not in third person like the main series is. You only get to see them for a second or two when they jump in and attack or are using an attack that exploits a weakness.
I believe this is relevant to those new to Persona.
OT: This is the most adorable thing ever.
As much as I love Persona, I just don't see this being my thing. I can certainly see the cuteness of the whole thing, but to be completely honest, the Social Links, individual character plot arcs, and overarching plot are what keep me coming back to the series. Q seems to place its emphasis on the dungeon diving, which ironically enough, is one of the things about the games I like these least.
I don't know. As far as the Arena series goes at least, I think that the extended canon has been pretty interesting. The Naoto light novel is a fun read, though there is some blatant fanservice in it. That and I am pretty sure it isn't canon; heck, I'm not even sure if Golden is technically canon.
Maybe Philemon is back for this game? He could give the cast the power to do that, a la Persona 1&2
I'm more concerned aböut the fate of poor Igor. it seems that since his Japanese VA died he's been slowly filtered out little by little it seems. And from what I heard, he isn't in this or the dancing game (you know you'd want to see him bust a move) at all.
To be absolutely honest, I not only like the art style, but I really enjoyed my time with Etrian Odyssey 4, so this interests me a lot. Etrian Odyssey style gameplay with Persona based music, attacks, persona fusions, etc... Cmon guys, that sounds AWESOME!
I'm lukewarm towards the social links and daily junk myself. I mean, it's cool to do, but I can't say they are my favourite part of the games. Even the combat might not be either. The complete package is what makes me enjoy Persona the most. Which is probably why I'll go into this with an Etrian Odyssey mindset, not a complete Persona experience mindset.
With that in mind... OH MY GOD OH MY GOD OH MY GOD WANT!
I love the battle theme for this one. The Persona games always have crazy catchy music and this looks like no exception. I am a bit disappointed with the first person aspect, but at least everyone looks cute.
I think the idea behind giving everyone multiple Personas is to allow people to build a team based on the characters they like. It's a good thing for me, since my dream team of Junpei, Aigis, Kanji & Chie would be suicide in the main games since they're all physical attackers.
So. Fucking. Hyped. To me this just seems like the ultimate fanservice to fans of P3 and 4 - putting all our favourite characters together for some dungeon-crawling, shadow-stomping action. I can't help but have a big giant grin on my face watching the trailers and intro videos. Also, dat music!
Wait how can this be canon if...you know who is in it?
Time travel son.
Yeah, this about sums it up. In Persona 4 I would grind a ton at one time, and then avoid the dungeon for as long as humanly possible. Fusing Personas is interesting, but the dungeons in 3 and 4 felt more like a chore you have to periodically complete before you're allowed to have your game back. I'm really curious to see how the cast members interact with one another, but the dungeon crawling is a grind in more ways than one.

This is the third book in the Finishing School series.
Sophronia is in her second year at the finishing school. She is learning new weapons and finally master her curtsy. But when one of her friends get some bad news, Sophronia drops everything to help the girl reach her family.
This is pretty much the steampunk Victorian spy roadtrip I have always wanted.
I loved how this book expanded on why a person would want to align with vampires or werewolves. We are starting to see what the characters want for their futures outside of school and more alliances are being formed.
This really made Sophronia hyper aware of her friends. She starts to realize that her training made her a great spy but maybe too critical of those around her. She doesn't know if she should trust those skills or the people she surrounds herself with.
I thought this was a great installment. I have loved this series so much and I can't wait to see how the author wraps everything up.
I give this book a B+
Rooftoppers - Katherine Rundell
To read the official synopsis, click here.
Sophie knows she has a mother out there somewhere. Even though Charlies, found her floating in the English channel after a shipwreck, no one can convince Sophie otherwise. When they threaten to take Sophie away because Charles wasn't seen a perfect guardian for a young girl, the two run away to France.
I really enjoyed this story. This is my second Katherine Rundell story and this was a much more whimsical story. I loved the exploration a young infant being able to remember her mother. I loved that no matter what anyone told her Sophie never stopped believing in herself.
I really loved Sophie and Charles's family dynamic. Charles was one of my favorite characters. He wasn't caught up with social rules or etiquette. He wanted Sophie to grow up in a loving and nurturing home. He indulged her in so many ways but he also installed a love of books and music.
I can see why so many people adore Rundell's work and why so many people consider this a new classic. It capture the perfect balance between magic, family, and adventure.
I give this book a B+
Boy, Snow, Bird - Helen Oyeyemi
To read the official synopsis, click here.
Contrary to popular belief/marketing, this book isn't a Snow White retelling. Yes, there is a young girl named Snow and yes she does get a stepmother but this book doesn't have any of the whimsy quality that most retellings try to capture.
This book takes place during the 1930s - 1950s and it tries to tackle gender and race issues.
Whelp, I say tries for a reason.
While we follow Boy who was raised in an abusive home, then Snow and Bird who face race issues there wasn't a significant moment or conflict. This book talked about issues of colorism, abuse and sexuality but the book only skimmed the surface of these issues.
I didn't feel a connection to the characters or their struggles. This book also had a tough time introducing magical realism moments. Every time something surreal was mentioned, it felt so odd and out of place with the rest of the grounded story.
This had the promise of a great book but I just felt like the author was too afraid to push the boundaries. My favorite aspect of the book was when Boy finally found out the truth of her mother and I was so mad that the author ended the book before we could find out more.
I give this book a D.

What did you guys read?
To read the official synopsis, click here.
Veronica had just lost the last of her family. When she stumbles upon someone breaking into her home, a man named Max doesn't think it is a simple robbery case. He puts her in the hands of Stroker, a grouchy taxidermist. When Max dies, Stroker whisk Veronica away to determine if she had anything to do with his death.
I loved this book! Veronica is everything I wanted in a heroine from 1887. She is smart, self-reliant, and not afraid to have a little fun.
I absolutely loved that she was captured and studied butterflies. It allowed her to go toe to toe with Stroker, a handsome but angry taxidermist. From the get go these two had wonderful chemistry and witty dialogue.
This was such a great start to a new series. There were so many colorful characters, I can't wait to read more about them in the next installment.
I give this book a B+
To read the official synopsis, click here.
Sera has been obsessed with a painting for a very long time. She gets a chance to find the original but only if she finds it for a rich family. The subject of this painting is a famous violinist who was sent to a concentration camp during the Holocaust.
I didn't know this book was told in two timelines. We follow Sera who works in a gallery and she is trying to find an original painting. The second story line is about Adele a famous violinist who get sent to a concentration camp for behavior correction.
I really wish this had just followed Adele's timeline. With her point of view we saw a young girl struggle with going against her family and standing up for what she thought was right. We caught a glimpse of how some talented prisoners were treated during such a horrific time. It was a wonderful story about survival.
And all of that gets dragged down by cringe worthy instalove melodramatic storyline. I hated Sera's POV so much. I found her to be incredibly one dimensional.
I just found her to be so annoying.
Sera's storyline failed to balance out Adele's. Sera just seemed so childish and cliched.
She really brought down this book for me.
I give this book a D.
Alias Hook - Lisa Jensen
To read the official synopsis, click here.
This is a Per Pan retelling based on Captain Hook.
I loved this retelling. The author did a fantastic job of capturing the magical Neverland world. It was carefree, dark and it felt dangerous. She wasn't afraid to shed a darker light on Peter Pan. She expanded on the roles of the mermaids, fairies, and natives.
But most importantly she gave Hook an origin story worthy of this pirate captain. We watch Hook grow up to be this pirate and experience all of his lows. He knows he has been trapped on this island for over 200 years, he sees it as his purgatory.
But things change when for the first time a woman is transported to the island. Hook knows she could be the key to stop this toxic cycle.
I highly recommend this book! It is a well crafted darker retelling of Neverland, for adult audiences.
I give this book a B+
To read the official synopsis, click here.
This is the third book in "the Memoir of Lady Trent" series. It has been six years since Isabella's last adventure and it has now time for her to start her ambitious two-year tour around the world.
I am absolutely loving how Marie Brennan is spacing out this series. We get to see Isabella grow as a character, mother, and naturalist. We are seeing how her world is changing around her for both good and bad.
While she is expanding the knowledge of dragons, people around her are realizing what can they create with the dragon remains. It has been hinted on how destructive this knowledge will be at a later date. This book we get to see government interfering more with Isabella and her research.
My favorite part of this series continues to be Isabella and her team's interaction with the local culture. Isabella has really matured since the last book. She is a lot more open to different ideas and cultural customs. She might not fully understand those around her but she is open to seeing things from their point of views.
I think this might be my favorite book so far, it was funny, smart and very entertaining.
I give this book a B.
A Soul to Take - Emily Taylor
To read the official synopsis, click here.
First off I want to thank Reuts Publications for sending me an ARC in exchange for an honest review.
This book follows Lex, she works for an Agency that combats demons. Or at least she did work for them before she and her sister were attacked. Now Lex is left to try to find out why demons have abducted her sister and how she can get her back.
This book hit the ground running, unfortunately it couldn't continue that momentum.
The first third of this book contains a police case, demon showdown, an epic battle and kidnapping. There was so much action that characters took a backseat. So the story became a little disjointed when all of a sudden the pacing slowed down to a crawl so Lex can start investigating her sister's abduction.
Besides the pacing I wasn't a fan of the world building, mostly because there was so little of it. I am still not sure who exactly Lex worked for and what kind of class system this world has. This book is being pitched as a "paranormal adventure for adults, with steampunk elements" but I can't name any of those elements.
This was a very entertaining read, but there were issues with the pacing and the world building. I do think it is a very promising beginning.
I give this book a C-.
This book is slated to be released on April 4th.
A Soul to Take - Emily Taylor
Hi everyone!
I am going to be part of the A Soul to Take blog tour and I wanted to share the official book synopsis.
So if this book sounds interesting to you please stay tuned for my review. It will be up tomorrow at noon.
The first book in the new Soul Stealers trilogy, A Soul to Take is a paranormal adventure for adults, with steampunk elements and a Beauty-and-the-Beast romance.
The world has changed: demons of legend now live among humans, integrated into society through Government programs, wishing for peace. Elixia Albelin, however, isn't sold. As an Agent-in-training, she knows firsthand the blood-thirst of demons and isn't jumping to befriend the monsters plaguing her dreams. But when a mission sours, Elixia's sister is caught in the crossfire: taken. Abandoned by those meant to protect her family, Elixia is left with only one option if she wants to retrieve her sister—a taboo option that goes against everything she believes in.
Gritty, powerful, and exciting, A Soul to Take is a gripping debut that explores prejudice, justice, and the consequences one family faces when those two collide.

LASIK, is currently one of the most frequently performed elective procedures in North America. It is a highly effective outpatient procedure, often referred to as refractive surgery or laser vision correction. LASIK is used to correct myopia, hyperopia, as well as astigmatism. The LASIK procedure, which is performed by trained LASIK surgeons, uses a cool beam of light from the excimer laser to gently reshape the front surface (cornea) of your eye. This is done by creating a corneal flap on the surface of the eye, which is peeled back to allow the excimer laser to begin reshaping.
Recently, other surgical alternatives have become available. Among these is a technique called phakic IOL implantation which involves implanting a lens behind the cornea but in front of the iris. With this new option, many of those who were too highly nearsighted for LASIK are now candidates for refractive surgery.
If you are interested in refractive surgery, please let us know. We have been involved with refractive surgery since 1996 and have managed thousands of refractive surgery patients. Our surgeon is a corneal specialist who has performed over 37,000 LASIK procedures. Refractive surgery is not to be taken lightly and that is why we recommend you use our surgeon who is a highly skilled, experienced and ethical corneal surgeon. Detailed testing is necessary to determine whether or not you are a good candidate for the surgery. For more information please call our office. 212-230-1780.
Want a way to improve your vision without having to rely on your glasses or contact lenses? Whether it's for sports, driving, your job, or just getting away from contacts and glasses, the Manhattan eye care specialists at James Tracey Eye Care can help. We offer Lasik eye surgery with more than 20 years of experience in refractive surgery. Our corneal surgeon has performed more than 37,000 Lasik procedures with the expertise and knowledge you count on for a successful outcome.
If you're considering Lasik eye surgery in the New York City area, here's what you should know about the procedure and James Tracey Eye Care.
What is the LASIK Procedure?
LASIK is the most frequently performed laser eye surgery and it's used to treat common conditions like near- and farsightedness (myopia and hyperopia, respectively) and astigmatism.
The word LASIK is an acronym for "laser assisted in situ keratomileusis" and it's based on a technique in the 1980s and approved for corrective eye surgery in the 1990s.
Like other refractive surgeries, the LASIK procedure reshapes your cornea with a laser, enabling light to enter the eye with a greater focus on the retina, leading to much clearer vision.
LASIK surgery isn't a long surgery. It takes typically around 15 minutes to operate on both eyes, and it's essentially a pain-free procedure. The resulting improved vision will begin immediately once the procedure has completed, and should see continued improvement over the days that follow as your eyes heal.
How is LASIK Eye Surgery Performed in Manhattan?
The first thing your surgeon will do is to create an incredibly thin, superficial flap in your cornea with either a femtosecond laser, (a device which creates bursts of laser energy at an extremely fast rate – specifically, one quadrillionth of a second - and targets and breaks apart tissue at a molecular level without causing any damage to adjacent areas) or a microkeratome (a small knife used by surgeons to cut the cornea).
The hinged flap will then be folded back by the surgeon to give access to the underlying cornea (or the stroma) and remove some of the corneal tissue. This is done with an excimer laser, an instrument that uses ultraviolet light to vaporize tissue from the eye's surface.
This ultraviolet light removes microscopic amounts of corneal tissue, reshaping it so that any light entering the eye is focused more efficiently on the retina, vastly improving your vision.
For those that are nearsighted, the goal is to flatten the cornea; a steeper cornea is necessary to correct farsightedness. Excimer lasers can also correct astigmatism by smoothing out and reshaping the irregularly-shaped cornea.
Once the cornea has been reshaped, the previously cut flap is placed back, covering the area from which the corneal tissue was removed. Following the surgery, the flap and the underlying cornea will seal during the healing process. No bandaging or stitching is required.
Who is a Good Candidate for LASIK Eye Surgery?
LASIK can dramatically improve vision for decades to come when performed on the right patients. Generally speaking, Lasik should only be performed on patients who are at least 18-21 years old to ensure the eyes have matured.
While many people are good candidates for Lasik, it's not appropriate for everyone. Those suffering from conditions such as diabetes, autoimmune diseases (such as rheumatoid arthritis, multiple sclerosis, AIDS, lupus, or myasthenia gravis), collagen vascular disease, or those that are immunocompromised for any reason may not be good candidates as these conditions greatly compromising the body's ability to heal.
Manhattan PRK Surgery: An Alternative to LASIK
As an alternative to LASIK, PRK (photorefractive keratectomy) is another viable option. The PRK procedure precedes LASIK and was the first type of laser eye surgery available. It's still commonly performed to this day and offers many advantages over LASIK, despite a slightly longer recovery period.
Just as with LASIK eye surgery in Manhattan, the PRK procedure works by reshaping the cornea with an excimer laser. However, where it begins to differ is in the first step of the procedure.
Whereas LASIK creates a thin flap on the cornea to gain access to and remove corneal tissue, the PRK procedure involves removing the thin outer layer of the cornea completely and discarding it before reshaping the underlying corneal tissue. The cornea will then heal itself within a few days following the surgery.
There is a variation of PRK available called LASEK (not to be confused with LASIK), whereby instead of removing the outer layer of the cornea, it is instead lifted (with an instrument called a trephine), allowing it to be preserved and then replaced back onto the surface of the eye once the procedure is done. LASEK has a slower recovery procedure than PRK or LASIK which has led to a decrease in popularity.
Although the final results are comparable to those of LASIK procedures, PPK does carry a longer recovery time. It will usually take a few days for the new cells to regenerate and cover the eye's surface. There is also an increased but small risk of eye infection in the first few days post surgery, and some patients may even have to contend with hazy vision for a few days. LASIK patients tend to undergo less discomfort and will see a much quicker stabilization of their vision.
That's not to say that PRK surgery in New York City has no benefits over LASIK. Because PRK does not create a flap on the cornea, the entirety of the underlying stroma is available to be treated. This is especially beneficial if the cornea is overly thin and unable to be treated by LASIK. There is also a reduced risk of complications related to cutting the flap or the accidental removal of too much corneal tissue.
If you are considering Lasik eye surgery to correct your vision, you can learn more about the procedure by contacting James Tracey Eye Care to schedule a consultation. Call James Tracey Eye Care today to find out if you're a good candidate for Lasik eye surgery in Manhattan.

The UK's first 'slaughter-free' dairy farm has moved to a new permanent home.
Instead of being culled when they get older, dairy cows will 'retire' and their male calves, which are normally killed and sold for meat, will be put to work on the farm.
Ahimsa dairy in Rutland was previously on rented land in Leicestershire but has secured its future with land bought in Manton.
Nicola Pazdzierska said that while their milk was more expensive, many people were willing to spend the extra.
"We charge a lot more for the product but part of that money is going into our cows' pension fund, and at the same time, we don't think milk should be a cheap product," she said.
"In London a pint of craft beer can sell for £6.20, so we don't think it's unsustainable for our milk to sell for £4.50 a litre at a farmers' market, or £3.50 for members.
"We want to make the model replicable so other farms can follow."
The Ahimsa Dairy Foundation was founded in 2011 and originally produced milk in partnership with an organic farm in Kent.
The organisation was inspired by the farm at Bhaktivedanta Manor, in Hertfordshire, which is run by the Hare Krishna movement, after being donated by Beatles musician George Harrison.
The cows would produce milk in Kent and retire to the Ahimsa farm in Groby, in Leicestershire.
All of the organisation's 30 animals now live at the new farm in Manton, Rutland, and all of the milk production is there too.
In future, the farm aims to produce its own cheese and also create a visitor centre.
Its website states: "Thanks to support from our wonderful friends and supporters we have finally completed the purchase of new organic land in Rutland. Our cows now have a permanent home and we can start to build for the future.
"So far we have bought 48 acres of land in the lovely village of Wing. We are also renting a further 24 acres there with an option to buy in 18 months.
"We are renting a yard adjacent to the land with a track running down to the fields where our cows spent the winter in a barn. They were over-joyed when we finally opened the gate and let them run out onto the grass."

Heat treatable steels and precipitation hardening steels
The development of ever-larger plastic parts places increasing importance on the correct heat treatment of the moulds. In order to eliminate dimensional changes and quench cracking, pre-heat-treated steels are used for large tools. They are heat-treated to a hardness of 290 – 400 HB / approx. 30 – 43 HRc by the manufacturer. At this hardness, the steel retains its good machinability but still has a good wear resistance and adequate strength.
Particular advantages of pre-heat treated steels are:
No need to heat treat after machining
Can be used as supplied even in large dimensions

North Korea offer to announce a temporary moratorium on nuclear testing if United State agree for joint military maneuvers. But U.S. State department denied and rather called this ''an implicit threat''.
Psaki provoked to step forward for denuclearization and invite to open the way for future nuclear talk. Pyongyang regularly calls the U.S. military drills a defensive in nature if they do not agree for the maneuvers. According to the specialized analysis, the already-frail economy of North Korea is getting more fragile due to the U.S. military drills because they need to use some of their scarce resources for their own drills. Moreover, North Korea operated three nuclear tests already to protest against Asian and Western governments and also U.N. Security Council and carry on by diminishing the possibility of future denuclearization talk.

♦ After getting the lecture of oberoy sir, I got more positive points in my personality and I also I got to know my weakness where I need to work on. When I came here my confidence level was quite down but after 10 days it's boosted up to great extent. As Ranjit sir says "it is life changing experience and its training for life" each of his word was worth listening to.
♦ I know it was one of the finest institute of India for SSB. But after 10 days I can definitely say that it is the finest institute of India for SSB coaching.

Are the lights still on in South Australia ?
Posted by Big Gav in south australia, wind power
The Climate Spectator has a look at the increasing role of wind power in South Australia - Are the lights still on in South Australia?.
Yesterday, I called a friend of mine in Adelaide. Beyond the usual niceties to start the call my first question was: 'is the power out?' Perplexed, he answered in the negative, no doubt wondering whether I had control of my faculties.
It was a strange first question to come from a friend you haven't spoken to for a month, after all. Especially from an avid Richmond supporter after the team's biggest win in years. But I was concerned for the state of South Australia after receiving some interesting news during the day – wind now makes up 31 per cent of the state's power supply, with solar PV accounting for another 3.5 per cent.
According to a leading energy advisory firm (Energy Quest), wind already "appears to be the new baseload." Not bad in spite of the campaign against wind by they-who-shall-not-be-named. But while green groups were likely dancing in the streets, I was worried the lights in those streets might have gone out. I have been told for years that wind and solar are not capable of supplying power consistently enough to power one house, yet alone be able to supply a third of the energy needs for an entire state.
It appears to be all a Y2K-like false alarm however, with everything operating as normal. ...
Not only are wind and solar playing increasingly significant roles in the power grid, but they are also helping to make wholesale electricity prices cheaper. In the March quarter, wholesale electricity prices were between 30 and 60 per cent cheaper in the eastern states compared to a year ago. Energy Quest said the reasons for the wholesale price falls were "lower demand for grid power and the growth of wind and solar."
South Australian wholesale prices fell 50 per cent, while the country's most heavily reliant coal state, Victoria, only realised a price fall of 31 per cent. Average wholesale prices in Victoria, the only eastern state to have coal increase its output for the quarter, fell to $24.53/MWh from $35.50/MWh. South Australian prices fell to $26.17/MWh from $51.82/MWh. The gap is closing rapidly.
Obviously the switch to a sustainable energy future is a gradual one to be made over decades, not in the next year or two. But the progress with renewable energy in South Australia is promising and shows that with a friendly policy environment – for example, no 2km wind farm exclusion zones – great strides can be made.


text: Oneworld alliance member and Qantas partner Cathay Pacific will make sweeping changes to its Marco Polo Club frequent flyer scheme from April 15 2016, impacing how elite status is earned as well as the perks it provides. It's a mixed bag, with an all-new points-based qualification system, a loss of 'anytime lounge access' privileges for Diamond guests but free confirmed upgrades for both Gold and Diamond members. Club Points replace Club Miles, Club Sectors – 'Club Points' will become the new and sole determinant of Marco Polo Club status, superseding both 'Club Miles' and 'Club Sectors' as used today. The number of Club Points you'll earn in the air depends on the airline you're travelling with, the class of service, your specific fare type and the distance of your flight. For example, a return journey in Cathay Pacific business class between Sydney and Hong Kong would earn 170 Club Points on the higher-priced J and C fare types, or a lower 140 Club Points on the more affordable D and I fares. In premium economy, you're looking at either 90 or 70 Club Points, depending on your fare type.
