But when Ant started as a Jakarta project, there was no OASIS, W3C, IETF or any other standard (except for make). It only became a defacto standard after the fact. So if we adopted a "standards" based charter, we'd never do any development of things like Ant. That's why I'm not excited about a charter that involves using standards as the exclusion mechanism. > I wouldn't think Ant would be a good candidate for xml.apache.com.

Actually, what you've said there is pretty close, although it could be interpreted as "cool XML stuff". My slant is more like this (I'm not saying we have to use this, I'm trying to explain where I'm coming from): I want the opportunity to work with smart people on interesting problems in the XML space, and I want the fruits of my labor to be available to whoever wants to use it (individual or corporation). The ability to innovate in this space is very important to me. > Interestingly, Cocoon *does* fit into this vision, which I think is really > cool. I'd be very happy if in a year or two, we had a bunch more cool projects like Cocoon. The projects that most represent innovation to me are Cocoon, Ant, Struts, Turbine, and Velocity. Most of our (XML) current projects are building blooks for the really cool stuff. And we haven't started on much of that yet. My 2cents.

So thank goodness real estate brokers aptsandlofts just laid it all out for us in a helpful report titled "Our Take On Ten Years of Brooklyn Real Estate." It's not incisive biting analysis so much as it is the literature equivalent of being hit in the face with a hammer over and over again. Except the hammer is sales prices and your face is your wallet. And probably also your face. Anyway, Brooklyn's become very expensive in ten years! (more…)

Over the last few years the theme of urban agriculture integrated with experimental green strategies has spread in the discipline of architecture trying to involve new technologies from the concept phase till the construction. Unfortunately this attitude is up to now simply theoretical and it attempt to provide practical examples is still missing. Another gap is represented by the fact that traditional architecture is no longer adequate to answer to these issues. This book, therefore, provides a possible strategy to follow through the description of a project. Parametric architecture and the usage of computational tools are presented as a possible answer to those problematic and as a way to connect new technologies in the field of green architecture together with the program of a specific building. In particular the case study is an algae eco-platform for the city of Venice in which the invasive algae that grow in the Lagoon are collected and converted in different kind of goods. This example should help architects to understand the potential of new sustainable mechanisms integrated in architecture and the potential of computational tools.

(this is her dominant personality type)
(she also shows elements of this type)
The aim of of life is to live, and to live means to be aware, joyously, drunkenly, serenely, divinely aware.
She is an executive and tends to be consistent, reliable, thorough and persevering.
She likes people and is generally comfortable with them. She also likes concrete and focused conversations on everything from trivia to the important topics of the day.
She needs a partner who is devoted to family, sensible with money, responsible with possessions, compassionate, and wants to have detailed and informed conversations.
A few excerpts from her personality test:
- I am willing to take risks to do what I want to do
- I am very empathetic
- I like to figure out how things work
Her 12 interests
in her own words...
I am, in many ways, a very typical California girl. I'm outgoing, relaxed, a little sarcastic and consider it a personal affront when the temperature drops below 70 degrees. That's probably not a surprise, since I lived in California for the first 28 years of my life. I'm still learning a lot about life on this "other" coast and exploring more of it is one of my favorite things. So far, I've managed to make trips to Virginia, Maryland, Delaware, South Carolina and Tennessee! Tennessee was actually the 25th state I've visited - I'd love to make it to all 50 eventually. I'm a small town, country girl at heart and I love being outdoors - either for a camping trip, a baseball game or just a long walk on a sunny day. Any chance to be outside is plus, so I've joined a ridiculous number of sports leagues, from softball to kickball to football to bocce ball. I'm something of a gigantic klutz, so combining that with all of those activities has resulted in some pretty ridiculous stories. A few other random factoids - I have 3 best friends that I have known for 20 years; I've seen every episode of The West Wing at least 3 times; I own way too many pairs of flip flops; I sing in the shower...loudly; I prefer college sports to professional, mustard to ketchup and beer to wine; and my family means more to me than anything else. I still don't know exactly what I'm looking for, but I've figured a few things out. I'd like to meet someone to talk to. Someone to be quiet with. Someone to challenge me. And someone to laugh with. I'll figure the rest out eventually :)

Make Collections more presentable. Improve Mobile (non-app) experience.
Love the Collections page and I think it should be more upfront with the albums instead of hidden in the background. Also, there is no shortcut to share a Collection. It seems like such a great feature is being neglected! It didn't even get an upgrade when Flickr redid the album pages. Please give Collections and updated look and also add it to the forefront! The feature is also neglected in the Mobile app and needs to be brought in there.
While I'm at it, the mobile experience for non-app users needs an overhaul. The interface is terrible when using a mobile browser. Not all my friends use the Flickr app, so when they go to look, it is a pretty terrible experience. Please update the mobile (non-app) experience!

More specifically on Collections - The page when you click into a Collection needs a major update. I think it is still stuck in the old Flickr design from years ago!

Author has written 1 story for Misc. Plays/Musicals.
It's recently come to my attention that I haven't updated this thing in a while (the last time was March 5th, and it's now July 26th)...let's see, what interesting things can I share about myself at this point in time?
Name: Robin
Favourite Country: Germany! Then England after that, and...that's pretty much it. I like a few states in the US (Hawaii and Alaska, basically) but I don't like the US as a whole. I live in the US btw, so don't get the idea that I'm just some European chick who thinks Americans are all a bunch of idiots. I'm an American chick who thinks Americans are all a bunch of idiots. Just to clarify. But I do spell some words in their British form.
Favourite Music, By Genre: Altie (that is, alternative), Foreign (European and Indian specifically. Indian like the country, not like the Native Americans.) By Artist: Tokio Hotel (German band, sings in German, English), The Killers, Kerli (Estonian singer, sings in English), Nena (German singer, sings in German mostly), Placebo, Massive Attack, Cobra Starship, Linkin Park (I usually listen to them while writing songs), Green Day, The Offspring, MGMT, Coldplay, Keane, Weezer, Muse, Lady GaGa, Adam Lambert, No Doubt, Gwen Stefani, and a shitload more. XD By Song: "Save You" by The Moxy, "Strange" by Tokio Hotel & Kerli, "Goodbye" by Kristinia DeBarge, "Felicia" by The Constellations, "Sleepwalker" by Adam Lambert, ...hmm...there's more, but I can't think of them right now.
Favourite Books: The Mortal Instruments series by Cassandra Clare. The end. Nothing can top them. If/when the movie is finally made...Molly Quinn should play Clary Fray. Kristopher Turner as Simon Lewis. Alex Pettyfer as Jace Wayland. Nicholas Hoult as Alec Lightwood. Megan Fox as Isabelle Lightwood. Bill Kaulitz as Magnus Bane (for the record, Bill says he's straight, and I believe him. I'll love him always, no matter what.)
Favourite Movies: Sweeney Todd, I Now Pronounce You Chuck and Larry, Hot Fuzz (police movie with a badly chosen title-it's not a porno!) and...I think that's it. I don't watch a lot of TV. But my favorite shows are House, The L Word, Bones, and...I think that's it. Pretty sure.
Now that I've gotten all the usual waffle that people usually put up over with, I feel I should have something profound to add. But...I can't do profound. So...
Tokio Hotel Fun!
1. Real TH fans know more songs than Monsoon.
We waited for infinity;
Bill Kaulitz - born in Madgeburg, Germany, September 1st, 1989, 10 minutes after his identically unidentical twin brother Tom. Brown eyes, naturally blonde hair dyed black, usually with blonde-white highlights. Singer. Began writing songs as early as 7; his first song was to his dead mouse and was titled Traurig (Sad). Allergic to apples and mosquitoes. Has an artificial left ear (a mosquito bit him and he had to go to the hospital for a week...not fun, I imagine). Had a vocal cyst (from singing too much) removed in March 2008. Loves monkeys. Favorite colors are black, orange, and red. Has 3+ tattoos. Has 2 piercings, right eyebrow and tongue, and possibly a third one, left nipple, but that's not been confirmed. Doesn't like energy drinks. Wants to meet the Olsen twins, Mary-Kate and Ashley. Hates it when girls bite their nails, yet does it himself when nervous. His biggest fear is that he and Tom will have a big fight and never talk to each other again. He hates his feet. He dislikes singing before 8am, because he feels his voice hasn't yet awoken. Afraid of seaweed. Likes to sew. Very superstitious. Previously had stagefright. Doen't like the way Tom and Georg talk, it's "vulgar." Dislikes when his fans dress like him. He doesn't want to get married, but if he did it would be an UNtraditional wedding.
Tom Kaulitz - born in Madgeburg, Germany, September 1st, 1989, 10 minutes before his identically unidentical twin brother Bill. Brown eyes, naturally blonde hair. Guitarist.
I'll add more later, I got distracted watching YouTube vids of the band...mostly Bill.

I'm thrilled to see you are still creating these functional pieces of art!
End of summer updateBy Tony | September 19, 2015 | Uncategorized
Hope you've all had a good summer, there wasn't much in the way of warm weather here. I've been working on a few new ideas and kits which will be up for sale soon plus one larger project which will be launched as a Kickstarter within the next month, once I have a few protrotypes ready for photographs/videos.
The shop has been moved back here and the blog theme altered to give a more uniform appearance and hopefully make things easier to find. If you need to contact me we've added a web based contact form as some emails appeared to be disappearing in the spam filter.
Mini 4-digit VFD clock:
Based on our 5-digit nixie clock sodtware including GPS/IR syncing, IR control and battery backup with single alarm. 5V USB powered and drawing about 100mA, you could almost use it as a watch….
(That's the prototype PCB)
IN12/15 cylinder clock:
Functionally identical to our IN14/19 clock sold by Thinkgeek but made much more affordable thanks to the lower cost nixies and featuring a Perspex cylindrical case with solid teak end caps.
More kits to come soon….

2014 Pardes Humanitarian Prizewinner in Mental Health
From his earliest work as a medical student and intern, Dr. Herbert Pardes saw the need to help people overcome the critical challenges of daily living and basic function in the realm of mental health. He served to care for many in hospital environments, and then he began to teach others how to do the same as a professor of medicine while caring for patients as a psychiatrist.
His achievements in conferring the benefits on others led to his appointment as Director of the National Institute of Mental Health (NIMH), where he served from 1978 to 1984. It is widely recognized that he transformed the Institute, gave it new research intensity and deepened its concern and activity with patient treatment. Dr. Pardes encouraged the support of outstanding researchers in many segments of psychiatry and went beyond the traditional role in guiding and stimulating the broadening of public interest in the effort to overcome mental illness. Dr. Pardes also served as U.S. Assistant Surgeon General during the Reagan and Carter administrations and has been a continuing champion of federal support of psychiatric research and medical research generally.
When the National Alliance for Mental Illness (NAMI) was formed, Dr. Pardes was at the first meeting as the lead speaker to guide volunteers in their goal to help patients, family members and overcome stigma.
When the late distinguished publisher of The Washington Post, Katherine Graham, was approached by two gentlemen from Louisville, Kentucky, who wanted to build their schizophrenia research charity, she immediately went to Dr. Pardes. He saw the opportunity to create a new vehicle which would greatly broaden the research, the research community and public support. Thus, he led the foundation of the National Alliance for Research on Schizophrenia and Depression – NARSAD – now the Brain & Behavior Research Foundation. He started by using his extraordinary knowledge of the leaders in research in these areas of schizophrenia and depression by selecting a 24-member council of scientists to select young researchers to be funded by the new organization. He guided these distinguished scientists in the task for which they volunteered and has continued to do so to this day as the Scientific Council has grown to 165 members. Their effort has unquestionably transformed the field with the more than 5,000 NARSAD Research grants awarded in the United States and thirty-three other countries.
Beyond building NARSAD/the Brain & Behavior Research Foundation, Dr. Pardes has realized further extraordinary achievements in "conferring the greatest benefit on mankind." When he left his role at the NIMH, he joined the faculty of Columbia University Medical School and the New York State Psychiatric Institute to head psychiatric research education. Not content to limit his message within these great organizations, he opened new channels of public communication and participation. Significantly, he convened the Schizophrenia Research Colloquium for the general public, aimed at giving patients and family members insight into the disorders, the issues of caring and the research. These annual research forums have continued as an important contribution of Columbia for 30 years.
As he rose in the responsibilities at Columbia University, becoming Dean of the Faculty of Medicine at Columbia University College of Physicians and Surgeons—where he raised the U.S. News & World Report ranking of P&S to number five in the country—and the Vice President for Health Research, Dr. Pardes continued to broaden the base of those receiving his messages of new knowledge and goals of better treatments and cures. In the course of this active program, he also served as President of the American Psychiatric Association and has now for over two decades maintained a regular responsibility for giving the association's members an annual update on research in the field.
His distinguished career has been characterized by unswerving dedication to the best in medical and scientific advancement, combined with remarkable administrative skills. During his years as President of the newly merged NewYork-Presbyterian Hospital System (2000-2011), where he continues to serve as Executive Vice Chairman of the Board of Trustees, he instituted countless innovations and helped transform the hospital into the largest not-for-profit and one of the top ranked hospitals in the nation.
He devoted himself to medical education as Chairman of the Greater New York Hospital Association (GNYHA), the Association of American Medical Colleges (AAMC) and the New York Association of Medical Schools.
He is a member of the Institute of Medicine of the National Academy of Sciences and the American Academy of Arts and Sciences. He was awarded the U.S. Army Commendation Medal and the Sarnat International Prize in Mental Health from the Institute of Medicine.
The power of his presence, insight and dedication has truly "conferred the greatest benefit of mankind."
It is with this inspiration that we are inaugurating the Pardes Humanitarian Prize. With his career achievements as a model, the Brain & Behavior Research Foundation intends to honor others in the future who have had the most beneficial achievements in the fields of mental health of mankind.

text: A fascinating but little-known piece of British history. Faced with the probable invasion of the British Isles by Nazi Germany at the start of world War 2 the Coats Mission, formed from elements of the Guards and Household Cavalry, stood by with armoured cars to evacuate the King and Royal Family in the event of Britain being invaded. They were to escort the the Royal Family to the coast, where they would be taken to Canada, or to defend them against parachute troops. After the threat of invasion receded, the Coates Mission was switched to guard Churchill when on country breaks at Chequers, the British Prime Ministers' official country retreat. Due to secrecy the name 'Chequers' could never be mentioned, it was referred to as the 'Special Area' instead. The CO of the Mission was Jimmy Coats, and other officers included Ian Liddell (later a VC recipient) and Wilfrid Sydenham Thompson, both of the Coldstream Guards. One of the places where the Mission would stop in the event of evacuation was Pitchford, a country house in Shropshire. I was told about the Coats Mission many years ago by my Father, Jim Coates, (I must stress that my dad is NOT the CO of the Mission, the name is just a co-incidence). Dad was Coldstream Guards 1940-46. He had mentioned the mission and told me that a special pantechnicon (removals lorry) was fitted out as a living room, and that would be the Royal Family's transport in case of evacuation. He also said that they would have been taken to Holyhead in Anglesea where the RN would then have taken them to Canada to set up a court-in-exile. I only found out last night that my Dad was a part of the Coats Mission. I had posted Dad's paybook in the 'Family Military Photos' thread and also on the the Middlesbrough & District Coldstream Association website. I had mentioned that I wondered why my Dad never did overseas service, and why he never rose beyond a Lance-Jack during his service. 'Mac', the Admin of the website and himself ex-CG got in touch with me last night and told me that it was because he had been a part of the Coates Mission. So, 12 years after his death and 70-odd years after the event I've learned something new about my Father. I did know he spent time on guard at Buck House (Buckingham Palace) and Chequers. He was on the top of Buck House doing fire watch during the worst night of the blitz. He said that the whole of the eastern horizon was red with the fires from the East End docks. Sometime in 1941 he was also on stag in the the grounds of Chequers in the early hours of the morning when he saw a red glow come towards him. He knew it was a cigar glowing so he knew who was on the other end of it, but he had to do the 'halt - who goes there?' drill. He got the growled reply 'the Prime Minister'. Being at Buck House and Chequers now makes sense in light of what I have learned via Google (and there are only 2 pages of references to the Coats Mission). If anyone else has any info on the Coats Mission please post it. I'd be very grateful.

No plans to impose tax on agriculture income: JaitleySubmitted by Harish Dhawan on Wed, 04/26/2017 - 18:29
New Delhi [India], Apr 26 : Union Finance Minister Arun Jaitley on Wednesday asserted that that the Centre has no plans to impose any tax on agriculture income, while acknowledging that as per the Constitutional Allocation of Powers, the central government has no jurisdiction to impose tax on agricultural income.

Very little volatility in Indian market post Fed rate hike: Arvind SubramanianSubmitted by Ashok Rawat on Thu, 03/16/2017 - 18:08
New Delhi [India], Mar 16 : Hailing the decision of the US Fed to overnight increase the funds rate to a target range of 0.75 percent to one percent, Chief Economic Adviser Arvind Subramanian on Thursday said that it was anticipated with a probability of 100 percent and added that this move should not be seen as a surprise.
Talking about the affect of the rate hike on the Indian market, Subramanian said there is very little volatility in the market, adding there is, however, pressure on the rupee to strengthen in the coming weeks.
"There is very little impact on India and Indian rupee in terms of capital outflows because export numbers have been good so far," added Subramanian.

New Delhi [India], Mar 16 : The Federal Reserve on Wednesday increased its benchmark interest rate a quarter point amid rising confidence that the economy is on the path of robust growth.
It for the second time in three months that the Fed has increased its interest rates, which is widely anticipated by the financial markets as it has taken the overnight funds rate to a target range of 0.75 percent to one percent and set the Fed on a likely path of regular hikes ahead.
"The market was bracing for a much more hawkish tone from the Fed. The early reaction looks to be one of relief, that the market's worst fears were averted," said Michael Arone, the chief investment strategist at State Street Global Advisors.

Inflation soars to 3.65 per cent in FebruarySubmitted by Ashok Rawat on Wed, 03/15/2017 - 12:48
New Delhi [India], Mar. 15 : Retail inflation rose to a four-month high of 3.65 per cent in February this year, mainly due to an increase in the prices of food items.
Inflation measured in terms of the Consumer Price Index had stood at 3.17 per cent in January this year. Retail inflation was 5.26 per cent in February last year.
According to data released by the Central Statistics Office, retail inflation in food items rose to 2.01 per cent in February, from 0.61 per cent in January.
But prices of vegetables declined by 8.29 percent and of pulses by 9.02 per cent.

Introduction to Intellectual Property Prof Merges 1.9.12
Logistics Course website: http://www.law.berkeley.edu/institutes/bclt/st udents/2012http://www.law.berkeley.edu/institutes/bclt/st udents/2012 - Intro to IP Spring 2012
Two Main Themes Today Philosophical foundations Comparative overview: Patent, copyright, trademark, trade secret & other state law
Philisophical Foundations Natural rights theory: John Locke "Personhood" theory: Hegel Utilitarian theory: Mill, Bentham, etc.
John Locke (1632-1704)
Locke's Theory of Appropriation 1.Nature was created for all to share; it is a common
Where does labor enter into it? "Whatsoever he removes out of the state that Nature hath provided and left it in, he hath mixed his labor with it, and joined to it something that is his own..."
Locke's Theory of Appropriation 1.Nature was created for all to share; it is a common 2.We each own our body, and the labor it produces
"this labor being the unquestionable property of the laborer" For Locke, it is fundamental that these "belong" to the individual; no one has a superior or conflicting claim Each person is "born free"
Jeremy Waldron, God, Locke and Equality
Waldron's Locke Fundamentally liberal: a balanced view of property Rejects the "libertarian Locke" of the 1980s
Locke's Theory of Appropriation 1.Nature was created for all to share; it is a common 2.We each own our body, and the labor it produces 3.Mixing labor with the common yields a valid property claim
Locke's Theory of Appropriation 1.Nature was created for all to share; it is a common 2.We each own our body, and the labor it produces 3.Mixing labor with the common yields a valid property claim 4.Subject to caveats and provisos; not an absolute claim
The famous "sufficiency proviso" "No man but he can have a right to what [his labor] is once joined to, at least where there is enough and as good left in common for others. "
"The same law of nature that does by this means give us property, does also bound that property too." -- Second Treatise, ¶ 30; p. 3
Spoliation Proviso "As much as anyone can make use of to any advantage of life before it spoils, so much by his labor he may fix his property in..." -- p 3
Locke's "Charity" Proviso 2 nd Treatise, Paragraph 42: – "title to so much out of another's plenty as will keep him [or her] from extreme want"
3 Lockean Provisos Sufficiency ("as much and as good left over") Spoliation Charity
Labor is far from an absolute claim to title " He that had as good left for his improvement as was already taken up needed not complain, ought not to meddle with what was already improved by another's labour; if he did it is clear he desired the benefit of another's pains..." -- 2 nd Treatise, ¶ 33
Wendy Gordon: IP's roots in restitution "Of Harms and Benefits: Torts, Restitution, and Intellectual Property," 21 J. LEGAL STUDIES 449 (1992) – also 34 McGeorge L. Rev. 533 (2003)
Philisophical Foundations Natural rights theory: John Locke "Personhood" theory: Hegel Utilitarian theory: Mill, Bentham, etc.
Hegel, "personhood" and self- realization
Basic Hegelian concepts Individual will Autonomy (freedom to choose and act)
Simple version … To become fully self-realized, an individual must be able to "project" his or her will onto objects in the external world This requires a stable set of claims over those objects – i.e., property rights
Why appropriation? Permanency: ability to return to an object, work on it, refine it over time Hegel's chair
Appropriation (cont'd) Control: maintain the object in the intended state; hold it steady, to permanently affix the will to it
Hegel and "stages of development" The will is ineffectual when "trapped inside the individual" Projection of the will – eg via property claims – is an important step forward Merging of individual wills into a functional, other-regarding state is the "end goal"
Labor vs. will Labor may be the result of conscious choice But will is the part of us that "does the choosing"; it is more an integral part of who we are than labor – which is more a quality or product
JK Rowling
JK Rowling: Locke: she worked hard in drawing from a long tradition of "wizard" and "coming of age" tales, and so deserves copyright in her Harry Potter books Hegel: The writing of these books literally helped "make her who she is," or "helped her more fully realize who she really is"
Dignity Interest of Creators KantHegel
Utilitarian Perspective Jeremy Bentham (1748-1832) "By the principle of utility is meant that principle which approves or disapproves of every action whatsoever, according to the tendency which it appears to have to augment or diminish the happiness of the party whose interest is in question: or, what is the same thing in other words, to promote or to oppose that happiness."
Utilitarian moral philosophy or ethics can be simply described as "the art of directing men's action to the production of the greatest possible quantity of happiness, on the part of those whose interest is in view."
John Stuart Mill Mill argues that the moral worth of actions is to be judged in terms of the consequences of those actions. In this he contrasts his own view with that of those who appealed to moral intuitions.
The utilitarian perspective "The greatest good for the greatest number" "Rights" follow only from calculations of collective welfare "Natural rights" are "bullshit on stilts" – Jeremy Bentham
Landes and Posner
Breyer, The Uneasy Case for Copyright, 84 HLR 281 (1970)
Example Landes, W., and R. A. Posner, "Indefinitely renewable copyright." 70 University of Chicago Law Review 471 (2003).
System-wide, structural approach Most commonly associated with utilitarianism BUT not limited to that approach
Rawls and Institutional Justice
Applying the various theories to IP Law Normative foundations are important in a time of rapid change
John Perry Barlow
Barlow "Information wants to be free..."
Larry Lessig
Lessig, Free Culture
The technology that preserved the balance of our history – between uses of our culture that were free and uses of our culture that were only upon permission – has been undone. The consequence is that we are less and less a free culture, more and more a permission culture.
I would dispute some aspects of this empirically Enforcement costs create de facto legality in many areas on the Internet Widespread and easy "waiver of rights" is an important feature of the internet environment; Tons of voluntary "free culture"
Nolo Press, 2004 (464 Pages)
But to the extent Lessig is correct... Permissions, and the costs of obtaining them, are simply a consequence of recognizing property rights The price we pay for obtaining the benefits of individual creation and control of indivial creative works

ONION RIVER MUSIC CAMP OUT is an event that will bring Vermonters together for 2 days and 2 nights of music and camping in Central Vermont. Folks will enjoy pleasant afternoons and evenings of music, camping, swimming, boating, & more.
Our goal for a sustainable community based, family friendly Vermont festival, that is geared toward Vermont's love of farm fresh, music, and the arts is present in all of our events. We want to give the community a chance to enjoy the local outdoors with the family in a safe, fun, & exciting environment, with an overnight option. These days it is difficult to find things like this to do with the entire family without spending way more than you should, but we are giving it a shot. Tickets for this event will be on sale soon and will be very affordable.
So you are probably wondering where the event will be . . . We are happy to announce a partnership with the Onion River Campground located in Marshfield, VT.
Join us for 2 days of music, vendors, and children's activities and enjoy spacious camping sites along the Winooski River. Maybe you want to find a private nook tucked up in the apple orchard, next to the plum tree by the pond, or in the high meadow. The Onion River Music camp out will be respectful and kind, generally loads of fun. Good people, hot showers, full hookup: water, electric & septic, walking trails, swimming access in the river and at Paradise Falls are just a few of the perks of this amazing location.

The labor rates in your area must be really low if this is the case. Or, he hasn't been constructing proper flitch beams. Yes, the material price of a pair of LVL's or PSL's might be more than a pair of 2x's and a steel plate. But they you have to pay a fabricator to punch all the holes in the steel, then pay a carpenter to drill matching holes in the 2x's and bolt everything together. Unless, of course, his idea of a "flitch" plate is to "punch" holes with a torch in the field and nail the pieces together. Or maybe put bolts only at the ends and center. Where unions keep the labor rates high most contractors would much rather use engineered wood than any type of steel. > -----Original Message----- > From: Bill Polhemus [mailto:bill(--nospam--at)polhemus.cc] > Sent: Friday, January 28, 2005 10:46 AM > To: seaint(--nospam--at)seaint.org > Subject: "Flitch" Beam vs. Engineered Wood > > I'm having another 'discussion' with my builder-friend.

Warrick Holdman didn't fare well in his first stint as a starting linebacker for the Redskins. Looks like he'll get a second chance.
The Redskins signed Holdman today and he'll most likely take over LaVar Arrington's weakside linebacker position. Holdman started for the first half of last season, but made his share of mistakes and became a bit player once Arrington was healthy, and out of the coaches doghouse.
Holdman gives the Redskins a veteran whom the coaches know well. But he could be pushed by Chris Clemons, who has impressed the coaches with his increased knowledge of the position -- and his athleticism.
Holdman did not play as well as the coaches had hoped last season, making critical mistakes that led to touchdowns at Denver, among other games. He took improper angles and played lackluster, a result, the coaches hope, of not knowing the system.
''I was disappointed because I know he's better than that,'' linebackers coach Dale Lindsey said last month. ''If he does come back, he has to be better than last year. I'm hoping he hasn't lost his confidence. I still think he has a couple good years left in him if he wants to get after it.
''I thought some of the movements and reactions were not necessarily what I had remembered and had seen. Some of that had to with probably an uncertainty in his mind that he had not been there very long and it was a new system. We asked him to do things a different way and that throws everyone off.''
