The route Hannah Peel has taken on the way to her day job as a solo recording artist has been quite a circuitous one, encompassing various projects musical and otherwise, but the arrival of her debut record finds her cast into an unenviably competitive scene, replete with artists both male and female making similarly quirky folk music. In such a saturated market, particularly one involving so much ethereality, it can be difficult for an artist to separate themselves from their contemporaries or break free from the clichés of what folk represents.
Unquestionably, Peel's work comes more from Joanna Newsom's end of the scale than Laura Marling's, carrying with it more than a hint of the otherworldly, something that stems in part from the ghostly, frail quality of her voice, which at times can be spellbinding. It's clearly one of her strongest assets, but it's nice just how sparingly she exercises it, for the most part keeping it reined in, rather than letting it overshadow the songcraft, an economy which is truly crucial in the album's success. Because there is little doubt here, Broken Wave is a hugely impressive piece of work, which showcases Peel's adroitness with a melody quite beautifully, with the simple, elegant swells of 'You Call This Your Home' and 'Song For the Sea' being cases in point.
Peel's previous musical meanderings with the likes of The Unthanks and Tunng have proved to be beneficial in the construction of Broken Wave, because she has been able to call on an impressive cast of collaborators, including the latter's Mike Lindsay who is responsible for a strong production which is equal parts clean and off kilter. Also present is Nitin Sawhney, who lends a hand composing the beautiful strings on 'Don't Kiss the Broken One' and 'Solitude', resulting in two of the album's most bewitching moments.
Amid the prettiness of the music, there is a profusion of melancholy in Peel's stories of love, loss and longing, but in spite of the tone, you can't help but feel ultimately comforted by the songs. That's because there is such warmth present in the delivery and the music which accompanies it, particularly on those occasions such as 'Unwound' or tradition Irish folk song 'Cailin Deas Cruite Na Mbo', when she revisits an old music box which was used in much of her earlier work. It's genuinely surprising to learn that the album was recorded in a mere three weeks, because Broken Wave is certainly not an album which sounds like it was hurriedly assembled. Indeed, one of its greatest triumphs is how full, and beautifully put together the whole thing sounds.
The release of Broken Wave heralds the arrival of a genuine creative force in British folk music, and one of the scariest things about it is that you get the impression that Peel hasn't really even got going yet. As she grows in confidence and experience she will surely get better, which is quite a prospect.

Local schools informing parents of school security procedures after Conn. shooting
While schools across the country are reviewing their security plans after a deadly elementary school shooting in Connecticut, WISN 12 News found many schools in southeast Wisconsin reaching out to parents to let them know what's being done close to home.
Waukesha Superintendent Todd Gray sent a letter to parents informing them of the district's safety plan. And while police have asked administrators not to share the plans in great detail, Gray feels parents need to know that steps are being take to keep their children safe.
"I'd love to be able to share exactly what we're doing because I think it would definitely reassure parents," he said. "But then again, putting that information out publicly does create another potential problem."
Greendale schools posted an online message from the superintendent stating that police officers will have an increased presence in and around the schools this week.
Officials in Oconomowoc said their standard procedures include locked doors, controlled access to buildings and regular drills for students and staff.
Wauwatosa schools conducted a mock drill earlier this year with law enforcement on a day when school was not in session. Superintendent Phillip Ertl said increased safety measures have been welcomed by parents in his district.
"We have police officers working at each of our secondary schools, and they spend time in our elementary schools," Ertl said. "Our security system completely locks down the buildings, but we haven't heard too many complaints. I think people appreciate that."
Officials in Brown Deer told WISN 12 News that they have a fully-developed crisis plan and lockdown procedure that was formed between the district and local law enforcement agencies.
But after an event like the Sandy Hook Elementary shooting, administrators like Gray said they are open to all options.
"I've received some input from parents and I'm going to try to consider that going forward," he said.

Adele's uninvited Grammy guest is finally explaining what happened on Sunday night.
After crashing the singer's acceptance speech onstage at the awards show and being released from jail, Ukrainian TV presenter Vitalii Sediuk spoke to E! News about the whole incident to try and shed some light on how he ended up where he was.
But not before declaring, "Oh my god, I feel like Lindsay Lohan."
U.S. & World
Adele's Grammy speech crasher arrested!
Sediuk told us, "I didn't ask people where I can get inside and what is the direction, so I just followed people. So the person I followed was Katy Perry and people actually directed her all the way to the front row.
"Grammys is huge, it's like Oscars, like three hundred security, policeman and stuff like that and it was easy to come in," he added. "I really didn't think at that point that I'm doing something illegal because I don't have documents with me that I'm supposed to be here at the event, but I was excited."
Sediuk's surprise appearance was very quick and could have easily been missed by many. After being announced as the winner, Adele made her way to smooch Rihanna and over the microphone, you hear, "Such an honor to receive this award. I love you, Adele."
After that stunt, presenter Jennifer Lopez gave Sediuk the stink eye and told him to skedaddle. He was then arrested that night on suspicion of trespassing, and released Monday on $5,000 bail.
A court date has been set for March 4.
Tune in to E! News tonight at 7 p.m. and 11:30 p.m. for the full interview
Don't think he'll become one of Adele's celebrity Grammy friends, like these folks

Mark Scalise and the 17th-ranked Crimson defeated No. 15 Penn, 12-8, in the Ivy League semifinal round Friday (Patrick Shanahan).
- Complete Game Notes
- Watch Live on ESPN3.com
- Live Statistics
- Ivy League Tournament Central
- Fan Information for Ivy League Tournament
The Particulars
No. 17 Harvard will face No. 2 Cornell looking to grab the Ivy League's automatic berth in the NCAA tournament, as the Crimson and Big Red meet in the conference tournament final Sunday afternoon.
Follow From Home
ESPNU and ESPN3.com will broadcast the game live, with Rob Simelkjaer (play-by-play) and Jamie Munro (color) having the call. In addition, live statistics will also be available for the contest.
Harvard scored six goals in the third quarter and led, 9-7, entering the final frame, but Cornell emerged with a 13-12 victory at Harvard Stadium April 9. Ryan Stevens scored four times, and Kevin Vaughan added a hat trick for the Crimson, while goalie Harry Krieger recorded 14 saves. Cornell's David Lau led all scorers with eight points (5-3-8).
Series History
The Crimson trails the all-time series to the Big Red, 61-23. Cornell has won the last 13 games between the Ivy League rivals after Harvard took five straight in the series from 1994-98. The Big Red has emerged with one-goal victories in each of the last three seasons (13-12 in 2009, 13-12 in 2010 and 13-12 earlier this year).
Harvard In The Postseason
The Crimson is looking to earn its first berth in the NCAA tournament since 2006. Harvard has qualified for the NCAA postseason five times, reaching the quarterfinals in 1990 and 1996. The Crimson is 2-5 all-time in the NCAA postseason and its 12-8 win against Penn Friday was the first for Harvard in the Ivy League tournament.
The Crimson owns a 4-3 record against ranked opponents this spring, topping then-No. 20 Georgetown, 16-15, then-No. 14 Massachusetts, 11-9, then-No. 14 Yale, 9-5, and No. 15 Penn, 12-8, in the Ivy tournament. Harvard also fell to then-No. 5 Hofstra, 15-9, then-No. 6 Cornell by a goal, 13-12, and then-No. 15 Penn, 7-6, in double overtime. Harvard is 0-1 on the road against ranked opponents, but is 3-2 at home, including 2-2 at Harvard Stadium, and is 1-0 at neutral sites.
Getting A Lead
Harvard is 6-0 when scoring first this season. The Crimson has found the back of the net first and won against Canisius, Holy Cross, Brown, Quinnipiac, Yale and Penn in the Ivy League tournament semifinals.
They're Honored
Dean Gibbons (A) and Kevin Vaughan (M) earned All-Ivy League first-team accolades, with Gibbons being named to the squad unanimously. Daniel Eipp (A) and Paul Pate garnered All-Ivy honorable mention.
On The Sideline
Chris Wojcik '96, the Frisbie Family Head Coach for Harvard Men's Lacrosse, owns a 10-5 overall record and 3-3 Ivy League mark in his first season at the helm of the Crimson. Wojcik is two wins shy of tying Robert Madduz (1947-48) for eighth in program history with 12 victories.
Converting Man-Up Chances
Harvard has scored 23 man-up goals out of 58 chances this season (.397). Opponents are 12-of-49 for a 24.5 percent success rate. The Crimson entered the week 11th in the country in man-down defense and 15th in man-up offense. Jeff Cohen leads the Ivy League with seven man-up goals.
Winning Mark
With 10 wins this season, Harvard has posted its most victories since going 11-3 during the 1998 campaign. The Crimson last won 12 games in 1996, going 12-3.
Home Cooking
Harvard boasted a 6-2 record at home this season with wins over Canisius, Georgetown, Bellarmine, Holy Cross, Massachusetts and Yale. The Crimson went 1-2 against Ivy League foes at home this season. Harvard was 2-2 at Harvard Stadium and 4-0 at the new Soldiers Field Soccer/Lacrosse Stadium.
Plenty of Points
Jeff Cohen has been one of Harvard's most consistent scorers in his three years in Cambridge. Cohen, who had a 34-game point streak from Feb. 28, 2009 to April 2, 2011, has amassed at least one point in 38 of 40 games during his collegiate career (94-17-111). Dean Gibbons is currently riding a 28-game point streak since May 2, 2009, and has amassed 101 points during that stretch (59-42-101). Gibbons collected a point in every game during the 2010 campaign and every contest so far in 2011.
Leading The Offense
Dean Gibbons, who was named to the 2011 Tewaaraton Award Watch List and serves as a co-captain of the Crimson, leads Harvard with 58 points and 28 assists, and is second with 30 goals and six man-up tallies this spring.
To The Nines
Harvard has won 40 of its last 49 games (.816) in which it has scored nine or more goals. The Crimson has lost 40 of its last 48 games (.167) in which it has scored fewer than nine goals.

How to Interview for Integrity
This story appears in the April 2009 issue of Entrepreneur. Subscribe »
Jay Meschke recalls the case well: "We had an unethical CEO candidate who actually used his wife as a reference," says the president of Overland Park, Kansas, search firm EFL Associates, a CBIZ company. The pair had different last names and used an international phone number to confuse matters.
The deception failed when a recruiter called to check references, then later visited with the candidate's wife and recognized her voice from the reference call. "We uncovered it only through sheer luck," Meschke admits.
Luck is great, but you can't count on it. And that's troublesome when scarce jobs and a volatile economy can pressure candidates to embellish and outright lie just to be considered for a position. "This is a rampant problem now," Meschke says. "And it's gotten worse over the years."
Background checks, whether done professionally by an outside service or informally through a scan of search engines, comprise a key part of exposing falsities. But background checks work best when combined with skilled interviewing. And a well-done interview can trip up even an accomplished liar.
Wise interviewers use resumes only as starting points for reading between the lines of a candidate's work history. "One pretty easy thing a lot of people don't do is ask about jobs not listed on resumes," Meschke says. This simple question puts candidates on the spot to either admit or deny leaving out past jobs that may not support the image they want to portray.
Next, get details of start and end dates for past employment. "People will omit things," Meschke says. "Once you can check out their background more thoroughly, you can find out whether the truth matches."
While you're at it, delve into specifics about claimed past job titles. For example, if someone says on a resume that he was CFO of General Electric Co., it's possible he was only a junior finance officer in a much smaller entity, Meschke says.
Also inquire about previous supervisors. Ask for the name and title of the person to which the applicant reported directly. "Get the names of people, so you can go back and get the best reference," he says.
Thus, armed with reference and background checks, you bear a better chance of turning up accurate and informative data. But interviewers can still do more, simply by listening for signs of evasiveness. If you ask a very specific question and receive an overly general reply, for example, take care. "That's a huge red flag," Meschke says.
Another technique consists of scheduling multiple meetings with different interviewers, individually and in teams, then comparing notes. "That's to make sure the candidate is being consistent in answers," Meschke says. "The habitual liar can't keep everything straight over and over again."
If evidence reveals a lack of integrity, think twice before doing anything. For instance, you may be legally required to disclose that a background check provided information leading you to reject a candidate. And even if your best efforts at interviewing leave the interviewee smelling like a rose, don't assume all is completely well. "The best liars are very good," Meschke warns. "Nothing is ironclad."

Raiders dealing with injuries heading into game with Rams
The Associated Press
ALAMEDA – Oakland Raiders left guard Robert Gallery is doubtful for Sunday's home opener against the St. Louis Rams with a hamstring injury.
Gallery has not practiced all week and coach Tom Cable says he is not optimistic that he will be healthy enough to play.
Defensive tackle Richard Seymour did not practice for a third straight day with a hamstring injury and is listed as questionable. Running back Michael Bush is also questionable with a broken left thumb.
Nickel cornerback Chris Johnson (neck) and backup safety Hiram Eugene (hamstring) are also questionable.
Cable also said Friday he had not decided whether rookie Jared Veldheer will start again at center, or if Samson Satele will get the nod.

Whole9 Foundations of Nutrition Workshop - Sumner CrossFit, Sumner, WA
Sunday, July 24, 2011 from 9:00 AM to 5:00 PM (PDT)
SUMNER CROSSFIT (www.sumnercrossfit.com)

We're now offering a FULL DAY of material, so you can take your nutritional know-how from the classroom to the lunch room, and everywhere in between!
"Whole9 knows their nutrition. Not just that "science-y" stuff like biochemistry, digestion, or endocrinology. In addition to their theoretical background, Melissa and Dallas are masters of the practical "how-to's" that can only be learned from working with thousands of people – and getting results."
Robb Wolf, Author, The Paleo Solution

Workshop Details:
Workshops run a full day in length. This includes an hour long lunch break, where we encourage attendees to hang out and socialize with each other and the Whole9 crew. With your registration fee, you also receive a packet full of resources, recipes, meal planning tools and special discounts on cool fitness and nutrition products. Note, the packet isn't a full outline of the covered material - just an additional reference guide. Be prepared to take some notes!
Regarding the Whole9 MealSimple™ template, Dr. Michael Hasz said, "While it's obviously important to have excellent food quality, you also have to be in the right neighborhood with macronutrients. I tore your MealSimple™ template apart, put it back together, and did all the math. When all was said and done, I realized you had a really well organized plan for people. You put thought into your recommendations and your meal planning template… and you got it right."
Michael Hasz, M.D. Spinal Surgeon, Virginia Spine Institute
Founded in 2009 by Dallas and Melissa Hartwig, Whole9 is a community focused on health, fitness, balance and sanity, all built on a foundation of real food and healthy nutritional habits.
We have four U.S. seminar teams traveling all across the country, sharing our Good Food word. We also have a team in Canada and another in the South Pacific (Australia, New Zealand, and the surrounding area).
We talk a lot about nutrition on our site and in these seminars, but that's just one aspect of our program. The '9' in Whole9 comes from these 9 factors, which we believe are all important for optimal health. Our 9 Blog features all of our articles, addressing various aspects of each of these factors (and then some).
In addition, we are the home of the original Whole30® program (as featured in the Hartwig's New York Times bestselling book, It Starts With Food), which has been quietly changing the lives of tens of thousands of people since April 2009.
In order to purchase these tickets in installments, you'll need an Eventbrite account. Log in or sign up for a free account to continue.

WASHINGTON - Defense Secretary Leon Panetta has permitted a three-star Army general accused of bullying subordinates to retire without a demotion in rank, the Pentagon said Wednesday.
A Pentagon spokesman, Navy Lt. Cmdr. Nate Christensen, said Lt. Gen. Patrick O'Reilly was placed on the retirement rolls Tuesday.
A Pentagon inspector general's investigation last year found that O'Reilly regularly yelled and screamed at subordinates, often in public, demeaned and belittled employees and behaved in such a way as to result in the departure of at least six senior staffers from the Missile Defense Agency during his time as its director.
Panetta determined that O'Reilly had met the basic standard for being allowed to retire without a loss in rank, which is that he "served satisfactorily" as a three-star.
However, Panetta also placed in O'Reilly's permanent file a letter of reprimand, according to a senior defense official.
The official, who disclosed the reprimand on condition of anonymity because it will not be publicly announced, said the letter states that Panetta disapproves of O'Reilly's management and behavior as head of the Missile Defense Agency.

Stadium Giveaways: Priceless Treasures
Last night was a brutal night to be a Yankee fan, as the Bronx Bombers let a middle-innings lead slip away. The Seattle Mariners eked a 4-3 win over the Yanks. With the win, the Mariners are now a .500 team.
The highlight of the game was perhaps Mark Teixeira's first inning solo home run off rookie phenom Michael Pineda, his 14th round-tripper of the year. Seattle's defense played a huge role, considering Franklin Gutierrez's brilliant thievery in centerfield, robbing a scuffling Nick Swisher of a home run in the top of the fourth.
After the game I asked myself, "How would this game have played out if Swisher had hit that home run?"
Probably a lot different, because it was a one-run game.
Instead of focusing on that ugly loss last night, I figured I would lighten the mood with an interesting blog topic: Stadium Giveaways.
Whenever I purchase tickets to a Yankee game or have the chance to go to a game, the first thing I ask myself is, "Are they giving anything away at this game, and if so, what?"
There's nothing like taking a free keepsake away from the game you attend, along with memories of a day at a ballgame. Some of those Stadium Giveaways can become extremely valuable, depending on what happens in the game.
I'm not exactly sure what the precise value is, but something tells me if you went to David Wells's perfect game on May 17, 1998, and received the Beanie Baby giveaway, you have yourself a truly valuable item worth a good amount of money.
Every Stadium, not just Yankee Stadium, uses promotions as a means to bring fans out to the park and get butts in the seats. And in the spirit of Stadium Giveaways, I am going to share my favorite treasures, as well as share the action that specific game provided.
Get ready for some stories! Here goes…
Batting Glove Day, July 22, 1999
I will never forget this day, only because it was the first time I sat in the upper deck at Yankee Stadium. It was quite interesting, considering me and heights mix about as well as peanut butter and ketchup.
The Yankee batting glove was given to children 14 and younger and it was a nice prize to carry up to the last row of seats at the old Stadium.
The Yanks hosted the Tampa Bay Devil Rays and beat them by a count of 5-4.
Bernie Williams went deep for the Yanks that day and Andy Pettitte tossed six innings on his way to his sixth win of the year.
Andy Pettitte Bobble Head Day, May 24, 2001
To this day, I am bitter about this.
My eighth grade class took a field trip to Yankee Stadium toward the end of the year. We were treated to a classic Yankees-Red Sox game, in which the Yankees won 2-1.
Mike Mussina and Pedro Martinez dueled it out, each fanning 12 batters in the game. Bernie Williams supplied some Yankees offense with a home run and Paul O'Neill notched an RBI.
The giveaway story was not a happy one, however.
The Pettitte bobble head was given to fans 14 and younger. I was only 13, turning 14 the next month. Because I had hit my growth spurt and I was tall, the Yankee Stadium bobble head distributors did not believe I was actually 13; they thought I was older and thus I did not receive a bobble head.
That day each of my eighth grade classmates got a bobble head and I didn't. Words cannot describe how much that hurt me; I felt so left out. I was looking forward to a bobble head and I did not get one.
At least I still have the memory of a Yankee win over the Red Sox and a day with my eighth grade class at the Stadium. When we got back from the trip we all took a picture together. I guess I can carry that around with me instead of a bobble head.
Bat Day, June 30, 2001
Bat Day has been a longstanding tradition at Yankee Stadium, going back decades. It was my friend Vito's 14th birthday and we celebrated at Yankee Stadium.
The Yanks played the Devil Rays that day; Ted Lilly vs. Ryan Rupe. Down 4-0 in the sixth, the Bombers struck back with a three-run inning. They put up two runs in the eighth and went on to beat the Rays 5-4.
Williams crushed two homers (his 13th and 14th of the season) and Tino Martinez also went deep for his 13th long ball of '01.
I left the Stadium that day with a bat and a Yankee win. And looking back it was almost déjà vu from the batting glove game; the Yanks beat the Devil Rays by the same score and the same player (Williams) went yard.
Yankee Binder Day, August 7, 2003
Although it was only the beginning of August, the Yankees knew school was soon set to begin. And what better way to bring us back into the school spirit with a Yankee binder, featuring legends and present players?
The Bombers were hosting the Texas Rangers on that hot afternoon, and played them to a 7-5 win.
The ball was jumping off the bats that day, and a number of players had big-time home runs. For the Rangers, Rafael Palmeiro smacked his 28th homer of the year in the first inning, a three-run bomb which gave Texas a quick lead.
But the Yanks answered in the bottom half of the second with four runs, all coming from the same source. Enrique Wilson stepped up to the plate with the bases loaded and clubbed a grand slam, his second home run of the year, to give the Yankees a 4-3 lead.
Soon-to-be Yankee Alex Rodriguez also homered, his 30th of the season.
Starter Mike Mussina settled down and tossed 7 1/3 innings, allowing just four earned runs on eight hits. He walked none and struck out five en route to his 12th win of the year.
Not a bad way to end a day at the Stadium.
Old Timer's Day: July 9, 2005 and July 7, 2007.
I was fortunate enough to be at Old Timer's Day twice. If you are a Yankee fan, do yourself a favor and get out to an Old Timer's Day at least once. You will not be disappointed.
Every Old Timer's Day, the Yanks issue all fans a commemorative pin.
The first time I had the pleasure of attending Old Timer's Day was July 9, 2005. The ceremonies were cut short because of rain, but the weather held up for the actual game.
The Yanks played the Cleveland Indians and lost 8-7, but nearly made miraculous comeback at the end.
Alex Rodriguez, Hideki Matsui, Gary Sheffield, and Ruben Sierra each homered for the Yankees, as the ball was once again exploding off the bats.
Darrell May started for New York and did not impress anyone, pitching 4 1/3 innings and giving up seven earned runs on eight hits. On the bright side he didn't issue any walks and K'd three.
On July 7, 2007, it was a much better experience.
We arrived at the game early, and it was a beautiful day – a contrast to my previous Old Timer's Day experience. Our seats were behind home plate and Jorge Posada's wife Laura was sitting a few seats in front of us.
The ceremony was classic; Don Mattingly, Reggie Jackson, Paul O'Neill, Scott Brosius, Ken Griffey, Sr., and many, many more were on hand to play in the Old Timer's game.
With the retired players divided, they split up into teams: the Bombers and the Clippers. The Bombers beat the Clippers, 4-0.
As for the modern-day Yankees, it was a slow game. They wound up losing 2-1 in 13 innings to the Angels.
What was so ironic about the whole day was that Roger Clemens started for the Yankees in their game vs. the Angels – and he was older than three players who participated in the Old Timer's Game!
May 24, 2008, Yankee Baseball Card Day
It wound up being my third-to-last game at the old Stadium, and it was a good one. All fans received a pack of collectible Yankee baseball cards.
Let's be honest, who didn't love collecting baseball cards as a kid? It certainly brought me back to my youth in a good way.
The Yanks played the Seattle Mariners and (unlike last night) beat them 12-6.
Mike Mussina pitched rather well, capturing his seventh win of his eventual 20-win campaign. The Yanks did it with their bats too, receiving home runs from Jason Giambi and Bobby Abreu.
July 15, 2006, Collectible Stamp Day
This was one the best days I can remember from 2006. A day at the Stadium with my Uncle John and his two sons, my cousins Thomas and Gordon.
Each fan was issued an envelope with stamps of all-time great players: Mickey Mantle, Hank Greenberg, Mel Ott, and Roy Campanella.
Before the game the Yankees held a special ceremony behind home plate with relatives of each player represented on the stamps, including Mantle's sons.
The Yankees played the White Sox that afternoon and crushed them, 14-3.
Bubba Crosby and Andy Phillips were the only two Yanks to go yard, but they played plenty of small ball. Derek Jeter had three RBIs and two doubles.
July 22, 2009, Yankee Stadium Puzzle Day
One of my fondest memories of the magical 2009 season was going out to Yankee Stadium on July 22, when they faced off with the Baltimore Orioles. Every fan in attendance was given a Yankee Stadium puzzle.
Jorge Posada homered, backing a solid outing from A.J. Burnett. The Yanks won 6-4.
I never put the puzzle together. It's still in the box.
Hopefully this year I can get out to a Yankee game on a day they give away something neat. It's always fun to collect and reflect on each game and the memories attached to each giveaway.

Welcome to my world.
Welcome to Toyotageek.com!
What's Toyotageek.com?
Toyotageek.com started as an idea many years ago, and finally came into being in 2006. Over the
years, the site has evolved and changed, just as my interests have. However, the overall theme has
always been and will always be TOYOTA.
This is where you will find Toyotamobilia: history, stories, toys, brochures, literature, photos,
collectibles, trivia... basically anything to do with Toyota. All Toyota - All the time!
I have a lot planned for the site, but only so much time to do things. When the site started I was
single, and now I'm married. These days life revolves around my wife, our dog, and keeping an eye
on my father. So, please be patient, and I will add new material as time permits.
I will be adding new Toyota Tales as they become available - real stories about real people and
real cars.
My eventual goal is to include pages on Toyota history, from the earliest beginnings with Sakichi
Toyoda, who started it all with his textile looms, and Kiichiro Toyoda, who founded the Toyota
Motor Corporation, to eventually include company and vehicle history up to the early 1970's.
Over the years I have collected of all sorts of Toyota related items, especially brochures and toys.
Eventually there will be pages devoted to those topics. Recently I began working on a guide to
minicar shops of Japan, since that is where I get a lot of my mincars. I'll also be adding more
minicar / diecast / toy information and I am toying with the idea of including an entire section for
Even though my focus is on the history of Toyota and it's vehicles, as well as collecting
Toyotamobilia, I also have pages on more current topics, such as Road Tests and New Car Reviews
on current and recent models.
So, please stay tuned, there is a lot more on the way.

The downsizing is the consequence of reduced need for office space following staff cuts, changes in production technologies that reduce space requirements, and the outsourcing many printing and distribution activities. Examples include:
- The Miami Herald has sold its bayfront building and the 14 acres around it for $236 million and is planning to relocate elsewhere next in 2013. It will use the proceeds to pay down debt and pension liabilities.
- The Ft. Worth Star-Telegram has sold its home for the past 90 years and will be moving to new offices this spring
- The Boulder Daily Camera in Boulder, CO, sold its downtown facilities for $9 million and is moving to facilities outside the center of town.
- The Tribune & Georgian in St. Mary's, GA, shed its former building by donating it to United Way of Camden Country in February to be used for work space and a training resource center for charitable organizations. The paper no longer used the building because it had moved to other facilities after outsourcing its printing operations.
Social, economic, and technology developments have stripped that wealth from the newspaper industry. But cities are also changing and many downtown areas are no longer the locus of economic and political power in communities. As we continue to move more firmly into the digital age, the physical manifestations of where the center of society is located will continue to change.
Changes in media and media industries reflect deeper social changes that will continue altering our lives in may ways for many years to come.

It's subtle, easily integrated and concealable, and as a result, it frees the design process from all the constraints that might have been there before. We supplied OLEDs to students, and the results were real luminaires that in some cases were perfectly production-ready. On these grounds alone, it was a very positive experience.
More than that though, we were surprised by the freedom of forms and the freedom of creation used so fully in the production of these prototypes, which for us was the most positive outcome".
Stéphane Delaitre, Key Account Manager Creatives, Philips Lighting, France
"Philips came with a very specific request, with a new technology: OLED. The challenge for us, the students at Ecole Bleue, was to find a function for this OLED, to find a support for it and to turn it into a real luminaire".
Morgane Huot-Marchand, Student, Ecole Bleue, Paris
"In a project such as this one, we were far more focused on the approach and on the research than on creating a directly marketable product".
Raphaël Plane, Lecturer and Designer, Ecole Bleue, Paris
OLED doesn't generate any heat at all, so it's really a luminaire that you can have very close to you, but without any discomfort. It's more about hiding the light source, like a lampshade, to really create filters to minimize how much you can see the light source, so in that sense, we are really in the area of adding value to a product".
Morgane Ovadia, Student, Ecole Bleue, Paris
"For me, the interesting characteristics of OLED are its subtlety and its light distribution. I think that, with OLED, we completely rethink the notion of light. I believe that it's an open door to a great deal of creativity".
Viviane Schuhmacher, Student, Ecole Bleue, Paris
Thanks to Raphaël Plane, Lecturer and Designer at Ecole Bleue for initiating the collaboration.
All the students at Ecole Bleue who took part in this project, and particularly Morgane Huot-Marchand, Morgane Ovadia and Viviane Schuhmacher for sharing their experiences.

PEORIA, Ill. (AP) Walt Lemon Jr. drove the length of the court and banked in a running 3-pointer at the buzzer, giving Bradley a 69-66 victory over Missouri State on Saturday.
Lemon, who scored 20 points for the Braves (12-7, 4-3 Missouri Valley), made his shot after Anthony Downing's left-handed layup with 4.3 seconds left had tied the game for the Bears (5-14, 3-4) and capped a comeback from a 16-point deficit.
Dyricus Simms-Edwards added 17 points and Will Egolf had 11 for Bradley. Downing, Gavin Thurman and Marcus Marshall scored 13 apiece for Missouri State, which never led but shot 58 percent from the floor after halftime to get back into the game after a 6-of-21 performance in the first half.
The Braves improved to 9-2 at home, securing a winning home record for the first time since the 2009-10 season, and snapped Missouri State's four-game winning streak in the series.

state or ability to perceive, to feel, or to be conscious of events, objects, or sensory patterns
(Redirected from Consciously)
Awareness is a term referring to the ability to perceive, to feel, or to be conscious of events, objects, forces or patterns, which does not necessarily imply understanding. In biological psychology, awareness comprises a human's or an animal's perception and cognitive reaction to a condition or event.
- We live in a nightmare of falsehoods, and there are few who are sufficiently awake and aware to see things as they are. Our first duty is to clear away illusions and recover a sense of reality.
- And how, bhikkhus, does a bhikkhu abide contemplating mind as mind? Here a bhikkhu understands mind affected by lust as mind affected by lust, and mind unaffected by lust as mind unaffected by lust. He understands mind affected by hate as mind affected by hate, and mind unaffected by hate as mind unaffected by hate. He understands mind affected by delusion as mind affected by delusion, and mind unaffected by delusion as mind unaffected by delusion. He understands contracted mind as contracted mind, and distracted mind as distracted mind. He understands exalted mind as exalted mind, and unexalted mind as unexalted mind. He understands surpassed mind as surpassed mind, and unsurpassed mind as unsurpassed mind. He understands concentrated mind as concentrated mind, and unconcentrated mind as unconcentrated mind. He understands liberated mind as liberated mind, and unliberated mind as unliberated mind.
- Gautama Buddha, Majjhima Nikaya, Sutta 10, Verse 34
- To become different from what we are, we must have some awareness of what we are.
- Eric Hoffer, in The Passionate State of Mind, and Other Aphorisms (1955) Aphorism 151, p. 93
- They who lack talent expect things to happen without effort. They ascribe failure to a lack of inspiration or ability, or to misfortune, rather than to insufficient application. At the core of every true talent there is an awareness of the difficulties inherent in any achievement, and the confidence that by persistence and patience something worthwhile will be realized. Thus talent is a species of vigor.
- Eric Hoffer, in Reflections on the Human Condition (1973), p. 49
- Every individual is at once the beneficiary and the victim of the linguistic tradition into which he has been born — the beneficiary inasmuch as language gives access to the accumulated records of other people's experience, the victim in so far as it confirms him in the belief that reduced awareness is the only awareness and as it bedevils his sense of reality, so that he is all too apt to take his concepts for data, his words for actual things.
- Aldous Huxley, in The Doors of Perception (1954)
- If you want to be well off and yet easily manage to become something, then forget God, never let yourself really become aware, never let it become really clear to you that it is he who has created you from nothing; proceed on the presupposition that a human being does not have time to waste on keeping in mind the one to whom he infinitely and unconditionally owes everything. ... Forget it and be noisy along with the crowd, laugh or cry, be busy from morning until night, be loved and respected and esteemed as a friend, as a public official, as a king, as a pallbearer. Above all be an earnest person by having forgotten the one and only earnestness, to relate yourself to God, to become nothing.
- Søren Kierkegaard, Works of Love (1847), as translated by Howard V. Hong and Edna H. Hong (1995), p. 103
- The conscious mind allows itself to be trained like a parrot, but the unconscious does not — which is why St. Augustine thanked God for not making him responsible for his dreams.
- Carl Jung, Psychology and Alchemy (1952)
- Genius is not so much a light as it is a constant awareness of the surrounding gloom.
- Stanisław Lem, in His Master's Voice (1968) as translated by Michael Kandel (1983)
- What is necessary to change a person is to change his awareness of himself.
- Abraham Maslow, as quoted in Life in the Open Sea (1972) by William M. Stephens, p. 21
- The whole idea of compassion is based on a keen awareness of the interdependence of all these living beings, which are all part of one another, and all involved in one another.
- Thomas Merton, in his final address, during a conference on East-West monastic dialogue, delivered just two hours before his death (10 December 1968), quoted in Religious Education, Vol. 73 (1978), p. 292
- This peculiar type of mental state is sometimes called a "Mystical Experience" or "Rapture," "Ecstasy," or "Bliss." Some who undergo it call it "wonderful," but a better word would be "wonderless," because I suspect that such a state of mind may result from turning so many [inner] Critics off that one cannot find any flaws in it. ...such experiences can be dangerous—for some victims find them so compelling that they devote the rest of their lives to trying to get themselves back to that state again.
- Marvin Minsky, The Emotion Machine (2006)
- Humor is perhaps a sense of intellectual perspective: an awareness that some things are really important, others not; and that the two kinds are most oddly jumbled in everyday affairs.
- Christopher Morley, as quoted in An Enchanted Life : An Adept's Guide to Masterful Magick (2001) by Patricia Telesco, p. 189
- Praying without ceasing is not ritualized, nor are there even words. It is a constant state of awareness of oneness with God; it is a sincere seeking for a good thing; and it is a concentration on the thing sought, with faith that it is obtainable.
- Peace Pilgrim, in Peace Pilgrim : Her Life and Work in Her Own Words (1994), p. 75
- The great awareness comes slowly, piece by piece. The path of spiritual growth is a path of lifelong learning. The experience of spiritual power is basically a joyful one.
- M. Scott Peck, as quoted in The Enlightened Savage : Using Primal Instincts for Personal & Business Success (2006) by Anthony Hernandez, p. 147
- Not so much, so much be lost, just
To see the hue, grace, glory gone
Off the face of my beloved
As I'd wake and be conscious.
- Manners are a sensitive awareness of the feelings of others. If you have that awareness, you have good manners, no matter what fork you use.
- Emily Post, as quoted in Reader's Digest v. 68 (1956)
- Let's not look back in anger or forward in fear, but around in awareness.
- James Thurber, in the foreword to Lanterns & Lances (1961)
- If you ask me what I want to achieve, it's to create an awareness, which is already the beginning of teaching.
- Elie Wiesel, in a 1978 interview with John S. Friedman, published in The Paris Review 26 (Spring 1984); and in Elie Wiesel : Conversations (2002) edited by Robert Franciosi, p. 85

Two Loudoun County men, both World War II veterans, share a very unlikely friendship.
On Monday 90-year-old Eli Linden carried the POW/MIA flag for his retirement home's Veterans Day ceremony. He marched forward proudly, knowing the flag is personal for him.
"[I] was captured in Germany and was a prisoner of war five months," Linden said.
U.S. & World
At 19 years old, Linden was drafted by the U.S. Army. He landed in Normandy, was wounded and imprisoned and ultimately made it back to the U.S.
His wife of 65 years was also in attendance Monday, but so was one of his good friends, Peter Koch.
Two years ago, Eli met Peter at a clubhouse dinner. Both men are husbands and fathers, both are war veterans and both are POWs. But as Eli tells it, both men had very different paths.
"He sat across the way from me and somehow I got the feeling that he was a German," Linden said laughing.
"And then I said, 'We have something in common, because I was a "guest" of the American army,'" Koch added.
Koch signed up for the German Air Force when he was 17 years old. He said no pictures of him survived the war. And for a time, he even suppressed the memories.
"I had to kind of bury that for almost 50 years," Koch said.
But that dinner with Eli helped Peter open up.
"By the end of dinner, which was about an hour and a half, we became friends," Linden said. "We told our stories to each other, and now we're buddies."
These buddies now spend their time welcoming other veterans arrive on honor flights at Dulles Airport, and they share their stories with local students.
Sarcasm and humor help these enemies-turned-friends keep moving forward.

Those of you in cold weather climates may be starting to thaw out now, and the rest of you may be well on your way to enjoying spring. But no matter the weather, all of us need a way to get moving indoors when time is tight and you just need to move.
Back in January, our trainer gave you part one of our indoor cardio series that included a warm-up and beginner-friendly routine. In part two, we're stepping it up a notch with intermediate and advanced options for those of you who've been doing this exercise thing for a while or are extra fit. We recommend doing your own warm-up or starting with the warm-up in part one, then choose your own adventure* and get moving.
Intermediate: This one is for you
If you've been working out for a while and have a solid fitness foundation, jump into our intermediate routine. Pay close attention to how your body feels, and don't be shy about bouncing back to the beginner moves if you need to. If you're feeling it, repeat this circuit twice.
Advanced: Only when you're ready
You should be able to get through the first routine with ease before you move on to this one. Once you're ready, get your high-level, indoor cardio fix here.
*Disclaimer: To lower your chances of injury, focus on proper form over rep count, and take breaks and modify as needed. You've got this.

Veteran Feminists of America
I was born a feminist. At least thats what my mother said. Well, she didnt exactly say that. She said I was the most stubborn, obstreperous and independent kid she had ever seen. She had six so she ought to know. (pictured right: Dianne as Susan B. Anthony in a one woman show she wrote, acted in, produced and directed.)
I was born in 1947 and grew up in Muscoda, WI. When I was growing up, my first-grade teacher told me that she had been worried about how I was going to manage, because she asked what I wanted to be when I grew up . I said President of the United States. She said girls cant be President so pick something else. So I said okay then Ill be a doctor. She said girls cant be doctors, so maybe you can be a nurse. I dont want to be a nurse I said, Ill be a race car driver. She was totally exasperated and said, Dianne, girls cant be race car drivers. My final word was well then, Ill become President and change that. Out of the mouths of babes!
In 8th grade, I was sent to high school for part of the day to give me something more appropriate to my intellectual level. So what did they send me to? Typing and shorthand, the skills a woman needed for something to fall back on should her husband not prove up to snuff. I still am a whiz typist. Once I dropped into the
*Off Our Backs"
office in Washington, DC to volunteer and they gave me a stack of typing. In about an hour I was finished. They offered me all the volunteer work I could do.
At the end of 8th grade, I signed up for high school English, history, math, chemistry and shop. When I arrived in the fall, I was enrolled for english, history, math, chemistry and home economics. My protests did not avail, but I caused extreme despair by winning the Betty Crocker Homemaker of the Year award in 1961 though I was completely inept. It was a math test if you bought this refrigerator at this down payment with this interest over these many months or that one for that, which is cheaper. That I could win. But at the regional contest, I had to cook and sew, and I was out on my ear.
I was elected president of my class my sophomore year and every year after. I wrote a political column for the school paper once. It was about the failure of the state legislature to pass a fair housing law. The principal told me that I was too young to be talking about civil rights. But I had gone to Chicago with a church youth group when I was 16 and lived in the ghetto for two weeks, where we marched daily for civil rights actions. I told him it was our job to speak up, which is what education was for. He didnt agree and my column was axed.
Since the junior president had always been Prom King, what to do, what to do. So I was Prom Queen and I picked the King. As it should be. In my senior year I was already in the college prep track, but they found that I was very fast with my hands (120 wpm typing), so advised I should work in a factory. I was valedictorian, National Honor Society member, president of my class for three years, AND winner of the Bausch and Lomb science award. Yet he suggested I should work in a factory!! I asked him if he would recommend that to a boy with my record. He said no, but I was just going to get married and pregnant anyhow so what was the point. It was 1965.
My father had the idea that going to college was a waste of time and money mine, as he never paid a dime. Years later when I was nearly graduated from law school, he changed his tune and told everyone his daughter was going to be a lawyer. He died one semester before I finished.
During college, I participated in few activities other than work and studying. I had a work/study job plus a job off campus because I needed the money. I had several scholarships and had to keep up my grades to keep them. My last years I participated in some anti-Viet Nam war actions and some feminist meetings but hadnt much time.
After college, I went to California and got heavily into the
anti-Viet Nam war actions
but only slightly into the drug culture. I read Betty Freidan --- recommended by a boyfriend of all things! First, I was a parole officer for California Youth Authority, and then went to graduate school at San Jose, again while working full time. I thought with a psychology degree I would understand why people did the crazy things they did. Now I know better. It seems the older I get, the dumber I get, because I dont understand anything anymore.
By 1976, I was back in Wisconsin in law school. That was the way, by golly, to fix the system go to law school. Yup, you can see how that worked! But to keep my sanity among that lot, my first year I joined the National Lawyers Guild, Lesbian Law Students, and Women Law Students. My second year, we hosted the national Women and the Law Conference and I was co-chair. Through that, I met many of the pioneering women lawyers who are icons today one of them on the Supreme Court.
When I started law school, I wanted to be a criminal defense attorney, but I went to hear Louise Trubek speak about her organization, Center for Public Representation, and the rights of women, and that was it. I wanted to be like her. So I switched to all things women and started working at the Dane County Advocates for Battered women. I also worked on some women and alcohol issues, women in prison, and disability issues with the newly passed Rehab Act in 1973.
After law school, I skedaddled to a warmer clime and ended up in Arizona, because they had not passed the ERA, and I reasoned they needed me. I was right. Within months, I had become the state chair of the ERA Initiative and shortly thereafter organized a group to sue the state of Arizona, because it donated $10,000 of taxpayer dollars to the Mountain States Legal Defense Fund to stop the
, and Arizona had not even ratified it. The lawsuit died when the ERA did.
During the 1980s, I was very active in
Women Take Back the Night
and in the early 90s set up a womens radio show. All the while I was representing battered women and children in family and juvenile court for my daily bread and it was just barely daily bread. In the mid 90s, I began to get more involved in the LGBT movement.
By 1998, I broadened my career into international human rights law, an area I always craved. I went to Moscow, Russia for two years as a volunteer gender specialist for the American Bar Association. I organized 44 seminars in 30 cities in 24 monthsa busy schedule by anyones measure. I trained womens groups, psychologists, teachers, lawyers, prosecutors, judges, and police all on gender based violence (GBV). Along the way I trained the best of the attendees in interactive techniques to take over my work. At the beginning I was doing the entire seminary; by the end, I had found Russians to replace me. In addition, we organized a social advocate program (like our para-legals) that continues to this day, and a legal literacy program that also continues.
I then returned to Arizona for three years working for the
Arizona Coalition Against Domestic Violence
as Public Policy Director. But the international bug had bitten, and when I got the chance to go abroad again, I did. This time it was Cambodia to train legal aid lawyers especially those working in family law and those representing women. With local staff, I visited rural villages and asked the women what their needs were. Without fail, their first question was about violence in the family. They wanted information on their legal rights though most could not read, and access to free legal information and advice. So we produced a simple booklet that could be read by their children. That book is still in use today.
Hungary was the next stop to work with the European Roma Rights Center supervising the legal department. Loved the job, didnt like Hungary. But I made some lifelong friends and learned a lot about the Roma. I started a case for Roma IDPs in Kosovo who were living on lead poisoned dump sites since1999 though promised removal in 45 days. It is 2010 and they are still there. The case is still going on (when I left the organization did not want to keep it so I took it with me). but it is very difficult to hold the UN responsible when they are the culprit.
Back home again, I did some short term consulting primarily for an Albanian organization on their newly-passed domestic violence law. The legislature wouldnt pass one so the people collected over 15,000 signatures, and all the politicians jumped on that bandwagon and it passed. But much work remained to get it enforced. I worked with local groups to organize community coordinated response teams, drafting protocols for all sectors on how to work together police, prosecutors, judges, medical workers, psychologists and NGOs. Later I returned to train court constables.
On Mothers Day in 2007, I filed a complaint against the U.S. at the Inter-American Commission for Human Rights on behalf of battered women and children . Then I returned to Russia but this time to Vladivostok. I liked it much better. It
was more progressive, better weather and great people. With a few thousand gallons of paint and some cable cars, it could be San Francisco. There I worked with the local bar association to set up training for lawyers on GBV issues. The IOM and U.S. State Department were opening a shelter for victims of trafficking so our attorneys came up with a protocol about how the government would work with the NGOs normally they dont. The protocol has now become a model in Russia.
From there, I moved to
I could sit on my balcony and watch the ships glide in on the blue Mediterranean waters. The project was to train 60 young lawyers--preferably women--on womens rights and domestic and international mechanisms for enforcement. The food was marvelous, the weather magnificent, and the people magnanimous. Though it was clear I was an American, they were as gracious as they could be. (pictured: Dianne with 2 Algerian friends.)
I returned to the U.S. in July 2009. Since then (besides looking for a job), I am a volunteer with the local Volunteer Lawyers Program of legal aid and the NAACP weekly, where I am on the Board.
Some years ago, we had established Its Your Choice, a fund to help poor women pay for the abortions they badly needed. No Medicaid or other state assistance is available in Arizona. The fund had gone moribund but is now revived. So far we have aided a 17-year-old rape victim, two fleeing battered women, and three others just since July. My phone number was on the web for one week, and I was inundated with calls so now we only work through established relationships with doctors. The need is great but the resources meager.
The Arizona Historical Museum is opening a new exhibition on women next year, and I have been assisting with that. Demonstrations for Code Pink or NOW or for decent treatment for immigrants keep me hopping. Our chapter of
World Peace Through Law
is preparing presentations on humanitarian law and a resolution against our locally elected sheriff, (Joe Arpaio the new Bull Conner) and Andrew Thomas, county attorney (its hard to know what to call him), for their pattern of abuse of law and discrimination. I do a lot of speaking to young lawyers handing over that still-blazing torch.
The Future?.... For my 60th birthday I gave myself a stunt flight in a fighter jet. For my 70th, I think it will be a trip to the international space station. And for my 80th birthday, what the hell, they say women are from Venus so maybe I'll go home.
* Off Our Backs was a feminist newspaper published from 1970 to 1988
