flkeysclaire needed a new t-shirt design and created a contest on 99designs.
A winner was selected from 73 designs submitted by 26 freelance designers.
because...adventure does not come to the couch
I am trying to find a signature design for the following phrase - "because...adventure does not come to the couch" This will be the first graphic design on the t-shirt.
Target audience is everyone - from children to adults
What I would like this design to do is capture the 4 seasons - since every season has a variety of sports and activities. What I am envisioning, is snow covered mountain tops, turning into a waterfall that is coming down the mountain which empties into a body of water with grassy fields and a beach around it.
What this would SYMBOLIZE is ... things you do on...
* snow covered mountains - skiing, snowboarding, ice climbing, etc
* waterfall coming down the mountain - which will be coming down through the trees - hiking, kayaking, camping, mountain biking, etc
* emptying into a body of water - sailing, scuba diving, fishing, kiteboarding, wakeboarding, paddleboarding, swimming, etc.
* grassy fields - football, soccer, flying a kite, etc
* beach - surfing, shell hunting, etc.
The phrase on the t-shirt is as follows:
BECAUSE... - (there will be 3 dots after "because") will be on the front
ADVENTURE DOES NOT COME TO THE COUCH - will be on the back
The design will go on the back of the shirt.
Letter style is your choice.
If you feel you have a better graphic design for that phrase... I am open for different ideas

Analytics: Fighting cancer for more than 40 years
By Alison Bolen, SAS Insights Editor
Most of us can name at least one friend or relative who is a cancer survivor. And there are hundreds of thousands of people like our loved ones who've beaten cancer today but would not have survived it 40 years ago.
In fact, adults diagnosed with cancer in 1975 had a 50-50 chance of surviving after just five years. Today, the five-year relative survival rate across all types of cancers is closer to 70 percent. In that same time frame, the five-year survival rate for childhood cancer patients has improved from 62 percent to 81 percent.1
And these staggering advances would not have happened without analytics:
- Analytics has helped scientists better understand the lifestyle factors that contribute to the incidence of cancer.
- Analytics has helped doctors diagnose cancer earlier so that patients can be treated sooner.
- Analytics has helped scientists discover treatment options for all types of cancer.
Let's explore some of those advances in more detail.
Analytics has been essential in the large-scale process of sequencing the human genome. Studies of our DNA continue to provide clues for early diagnosis and detection of disease in cancer patients. Plus, genetic analysis is now being used to analyze your risk of getting cancer in the future.
The five-year survival rate for childhood cancer patients has improved from 62 percent to 81 percent.
Personalized medicine – also a result of genomic sequencing – promises to provide treatment regimens designed specifically for an individual's unique genetic makeup, resulting in fewer side effects and improving outcomes.
Data sharing is reaping huge rewards in the fight against cancer too. At the individual level, health tracker apps on our mobile devices are sending data to health care providers to improve patient care and provide early-warning signs in at-risk patients.
High-performance analytics, high-speed connections and affordable data storage have made large data-sharing projects possible in health care too. As a result, pharmaceutical companies that collect clinical data about a drug's performance and insurers that study the outcomes of various treatment outcomes are finding new ways to safely share data. With these combined data sources from hundreds of studies and dozens of companies, researchers are finding deeper insights than ever before.
Forty years ago, interorganizational data sharing was an unfamiliar and untrusted concept. But today, the benefits are undeniable. Researchers are getting answers faster, reducing duplication of effort and improving efficiencies. Plus, rare cancer types and relatively neglected areas are easier to study with large amounts of detailed data.
Shared health outcomes data from large groups of similar patients is also used by cancer treatment centers. Health care providers can use it to gain deeper insight into the effects of various treatment options, meaning your loved ones are more likely to get the treatment that is right for them.
Thanks to analytics, survival rates are higher, treatments are more personalized and cancer research continues to expand.1 National Institutes of Health Fact Sheet, Cancer.

Man jailed for possession in Orange
Police in Orange arrested 22-year-old Joel Sonnier after a call regarding a disturbance reportedly led officers to discover drugs and drug paraphernalia in the man's possession.
Dispatch at the Orange Police Department received the call regarding a disturbance in an apartment located in the complex at 1010 S. Hwy. 87 in Orange at approximately 1:50 p.m. on Monday, March 18. OPD Officer Jareb Logan reported he was patrolling at the time of the call and volunteered to assist officers en route to the scene. Upon arrival, the officer reported he saw the man allegedly causing the disturbance, Sonnier, standing outside the apartment. According to Logan's report, he made contact with the suspect and "immediately observed Sonnier was under the influence of some dangerous drug or narcotic." He described the suspect as being "very uncooperative and evasive" when answering the officer's questions. He also reportedly observed Sonnier was "shaking uncontrollably" and appeared to be under the influence of methamphetamine. When police questioned Sonnier about being under the influence, Logan reported the man responded that he had taken "methamphetamines, heroin, ecstasy, marijuana and Dilaudud." At that time, the man was taken into custody for public intoxication.
Once in custody, police searched Sonnier and reportedly found two glass pipes, one believed to have been used for marijuana and the other for methamphetamine. Police also located two syringes, one empty and one loaded with an unknown substance, according to the report. When asked by police, Sonnier allegedly said the syringe contained Winstrol, classified as a steroid by Officer Logan. He would not tell the police where he got the drugs.
Sonnier was arrested for public intoxication, possession of drug paraphernalia and possession of a controlled substance. He was then transported to the Orange County Jail.

Though most often diagnosed in teenagers, osteosarcoma may affect adults as well, especially those over the age of 50. When the bone cancer occurs in such individuals it is typically associated with Paget's disease. Named for Sir James Paget, who was the first to describe the condition, Paget's disease is characterized by abnormal bone destruction and regrowth, and is accompanied by an increase risk for certain kinds of cancer, particularly osteosarcoma. Scientists have not yet been able to determine a cause of the disease and there is no known cure. Several different drugs are available, however, that provide a significant amount of relief to patients by suppressing the breakdown of bone tissue and treating symptoms, such as joint pain, inflammation, and stiffness.
The culture of U-2 OS cells presented in the digital image above was transfected with a pDsRed-Mitochondria plasmid subcellular localization vector, thus localizing a red fluorescent protein tag to the intracellular mitochondrial network. Stable transfectants were isolated, grown in monolayer culture, and then fixed, permeabilized, and labeled with a combination of DAPI and Alexa Fluor 488 conjugated to phalloidin, targeting DNA and filamentous actin, respectively. Images were recorded in grayscale with a QImaging Retiga Fast-EXi camera system coupled to an Olympus BX-51 microscope equipped with bandpass emission fluorescence filter optical blocks provided by Omega Optical. During the processing stage, individual image channels were pseudocolored with RGB values corresponding to each of the fluorophore emission spectral profiles.

Pac-12 M5: 11.25.13 EditionPosted by Andrew Murawa (@AMurawa) on November 25th, 2013
- Welcome to Feast Week! It's already been a great November of basketball with high quality hoops from coast to coast (and beyond), but we have still got one of the best weeks of the regular season ahead of us, with wall-to-wall ball and great tournament action. There will be plenty of Pac-12 action this week, but Cal and Stanford tip things off today, and the two cross-bay rivals will be playing in a pair of games about 5,000 miles apart from each other. The Golden Bears will get things underway in the Maui Invitational today just after 9 AM local time, while the Cardinal will face Houston at roughly 9:30 PM in Brooklyn this evening in the semifinals of the Legends Classic. But for both schools, it will be a chance to measure themselves against good competition and get some national publicity.
- Utah got to 5-0 this weekend after sweeping through the Global Sports Hoops Showcase, an exempt event hosted by the university that featured less than stellar competition. Over the course of three days, the Utes knocked off Grand Canyon, Lamar, and finally Savannah State to win the event. And yet, despite the relatively unappetizing appeal of the opponents, the Utes announced attendances averaging better than 7000 every night. Either that is some very creative accounting, or there are a few fan bases around the conference that could learn from the Ute fans.
- USC head coach Andy Enfield made a big splash on Friday with some loaded quotes in an article published in Men's Journal. The money quotes are straight trash talking about fellow coaches, like cross-town rival Steve Alford and former USC head coach Tim Floyd, currently that head man at UTEP. About Floyd, Enfield dropped this bomb: "Tim Floyd shows up every day at work and realizes he lives in El Paso, Texas. And he's pissed off that he didn't get the USC job [again]." While Alford received this treatment: "I've made it to one Sweet 16 in two years, and he's made it to one Sweet 16 in 18 years." Just a reminder: you may want to circle January 5 on your calendar, as Enfield's Trojans will visit Alford's Bruins that day. You probably won't have to watch the second half.
- Speaking of USC, with the news that J.T. Terrell was declared academically ineligible for the rest of the fall semester dropping last week, Jeff Eisenberg of Yahoo Sports writes that the gamble that former USC head coach Kevin O'Neill took on Terrell and his former Wake Forest teammate Ari Stewart most decidedly did not pay off. Stewart saved the drama and earned himself an academically ineligible designation prior to the season. The duo had run into problems – both academic and otherwise – previously in their college careers.
- Lastly, Arizona head coach Sean Miller weighed in Friday on his 2014 recruiting class, the latest in an increasingly long line of unabashed successes. His class features 6'6" wing Stanley Johnson (the #9 overall recruit according to ESPN), 6'7" power forward Craig Victor (#29) and 5'8" mighty-mite point guard Parker Johnson-Cartwright (#60), along with off-the-radar JuCo guard Kadeem Allen. But, Miller says scoring a big recruiting class like this just buys a coach a little more time, but that he's still got to go out next year and do it all over again. Meanwhile, former Arizona head coach Lute Olson can relate and says one of the big things he doesn't miss about coaching is having to deal with the new dynamics in recruiting.

Determining What to Teach
Come, Follow Me: Learning Resources for Youth is organized into units based on principles of the restored gospel of Jesus Christ. Each unit includes several learning outlines that advisers and teachers can use to prepare for Aaronic Priesthood quorum meetings and Young Women and Sunday School classes. Parents are also invited and encouraged to use them in their families.
The units have been arranged into a monthly schedule to help coordinate the gospel-learning experiences of the youth across the Church. There are often more learning outlines in a unit than can be taught in one month. Ward leaders and teachers of youth should counsel together to determine which learning outlines to teach from each unit. If you are an adviser in the Aaronic Priesthood or Young Women, counsel with your quorum and class presidencies when selecting learning outlines. You can also invite quorum and class members to discuss what they want or need to learn.
As you plan what to teach, prayerfully think about your youth. What experiences are they having? What challenges or temptations do they face? What questions do they have? What doctrine will they need to understand to prepare for their future? You may find that you need to make your plan flexible enough that you can adapt it as new needs or questions arise. For example, you may find that the youth need more than one week to discuss a topic. Let the needs of the youth, not a predetermined schedule, guide your teaching.

Forget about one in ten -- the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention now says that less than 3 percent of the U.S. population identifies as gay, lesbian or bisexual, according to their National Health Interview Survey.
The Washington Post reports the CDC's first large-scale government survey measuring sexual orientation revealed that only 1.6 percent of adults self-identify as gay or lesbian, and 0.7 percent as bisexual. The overwhelming 96.6 percent of adults labeled themselves as straight, with 1.1 percent declining to answer or saying they didn't know, or were something else. Other studies pegged the LGBT population as closer to 3.5 or 4 percent.
"This is a major step forward in trying to remedy some of these gaps in our understanding of the role sexual orientation and gender identity play in people's health and in their lives," said Gary J. Gates, a demographer at the Williams Institute, a research center at the University of California at Los Angeles that studies the lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender (LGBT) population.
In addition, Yahoo News reports the measly amount of LGBTs that there are are more likely to smoke, drink in excess, and experience serious psychological distress.
Lesbians fared slightly worse than straight women in health, and were less likely to go to a specific health care provider for medical care.
Some researchers said that it wasn't until recently that some states added sexual orientation questions in their health surveys. Julia Dilley, an epidemiologist at Oregon Health Authority, Public Health Division, said that tracking this information would help them better address problems in different populations.
"People were afraid of political backlash. They were also concerned that people wouldn't accurately report their sexual orientation," Dilley said. "It does seems like sexual orientation has an independent influence on disparities, and adds on top of any disparity that the person is experiencing."

Editor's Note: This is Part 1 of a 5-part series on Global Warming. It is strongly encouraged that you read the series chronologically. There are links to each subsequent part of the series at the bottom of each post.
I hope everyone watched Friday's Glenn Beck show with Lord Christopher Monckton. For a long time he's been one of the leading voices speaking out against Anthropogenic Global Warming (AGW,) the absurd hoax that former Vice President Al Gore and so many others have been perpetrating on the world for so many years now. This current example of doom and gloom predictions of imminent global catastrophes is far more serious and dangerous than any of the others to be sure, but the first thing that everyone should know about the subject is that these false stories have been with us throughout history.
The earliest known examples typically involve primitive witch doctors and shamans telling their people that the change in climate is an indication that God was unhappy with their sinful ways. In a strange sort of way nothing's really changed, as shown by the fact that the current AGW crowd has literally converted this madness into a religion for their followers. The leaders themselves have ulterior motives however, and many rational observers, including myself, believe that the environmental extremists of today are virtually identical to the communists of the past. When they don't have a good crisis to exploit, they just make one up.
The single biggest problem that those of us challenging this insanity face right now is the fact that the vast majority of our most prominent spokesmen on the Right are attacking the issue in the wrong way. The basic thrust what most of them are saying is that the huge costs involved with the Cap n' Tax scheme are far too high a price to pay for the meager amount of benefit that we're likely to get. Fox News's Bill O'Reilly does this all the time, and he's not alone. Indeed, we saw a good deal of the same emphasis on tonight's show.
As much as I respect both Beck and Monckton, I'm afraid that Friday's show also focused more on the costs and the political consequences than the science itself, which to me, should be the first part of the story addressed. When talking to the general public — many of whom just assume the entire climate change story is valid — the first thing we must do is get them to start thinking for themselves, and that's easy to accomplish in a few sentences, which I will go into in more detail in Part II of this series. To be fair to Monckton, of course who was brilliant and witty as usual, it was Beck's show, therefore any criticism I may have in this regard, should properly be directed to whomever set up the script and sequence of issues on Beck's staff.
The following is an excerpt from a letter I recently sent to some staff members at one of the bigger conservative think tanks who I've just begun corresponding with.
By attacking the problem the way you did today the most we can possibly achieve is to slow them down. But in so doing, we're still granting their entire premise, that CO2 has anything more than a tiny effect on climate change. In fact the only dominant cause of climate change is the normal cycle of solar activity, all of the other factors involved are quite minor indeed. The only way that climate change should be of concern us, is if it stopped changing altogether. By attacking the issue the way you are, you're leaving the door open for the opposition to temporarily retreat, & wait for the public to forget the details for 15 to 25 years, so they can try promoting the same scam again after having massaged the numbers once again to "prove their point". Anyone who doubts this should read the following article from Newsweek from 1975, reporting on the "global cooling crisis" that the same corrupt "scientists" were screaming about only 35 years ago. And please note that one of the loudest voices in that recent global cooling crisis, was none other that Obama's "science czar" John Holdren himself. This is the 4th example of this idiocy in the last hundred years. If they were wrong each of those times, why should we even LISTEN to them today?
I also highly recommend this short article about Holdren himself, which proves what was said on Friday's show when they discussed the true goal of these charlatans: a single world government. If you read the whole piece, it will help you understand why top experts like Monckton and virtually ALL climate scientists of integrity, believe that this current AGW crisis is literally the single biggest scientific fraud in history.
So to sum up the first installment of this series, I'd like to leave you with just one exhibit. It's a graph showing the universally accepted history of climate change in the last thousand years. It's been so accepted for so long, by ALL climatologists, that this graph is the actual one used by the IPCC in their first report of 1990/91. To understand the true significance of the last part of the graph on the far right, you should Google the following key words, 1: "medieval warm period", and 2: "the little ice age"
In Part II of this series, I'll be discussing the basic science itself in more detail and I suspect that many will be shocked and amazed at what's REALLY going on right now. Stay tuned!

I am working with Graham Noble on an interview of Sensei Pat Nakata, who first trained with Sensei Chosin Chibana in 1962. Nakata Sensei mentioned that at that time, students were not required to bow when entering and leaving the dojo, at the beginning and end of class, or at the beginning and end of kata.
When I went to Okinawa in 2002, I also noticed that there was much less emphasis on bowing formalities. I saw students who entered and left the dojo without bowing, which would be considered improper in a Japanese dojo.
Connecting my obervations with Nakata Sensei's, I started to think, "were bowing and other formalities added to Karate on mainland Japan?"
I think that the answer is in the affirmative. Such formalities were followed much less in Okinawa. Today, if they are followed, it may be as a result of Okinawan instructors copying the way things are done on mainland Japan. If they do it in Japan, Okinawans should do it too. Right?
It is a little like the term "oss." Okinawan sensei generally do not use it. However, if they teach enthusiastic Japanese or foreign students who expect them to say "oss", they might end up doing so. See Os - Osu.
Courtesy is essential in Karate. Okinawa is known as the land of courtesy. However, there is a big difference between the feeling of courtesy and the technical formalities of courtesy. Bowing is a formality. It is more important that the student feel courtesy -- merely learning to bow correctly is unimportant (because it can be done without the right feeling).
The ranking system, titles, the gi, belts, and much of the formalities of Karate were created, added on, or adopted in mainland Japan. People who learned there probably assumed that they were always part of Karate, but they were not in Okinawa (until they were copied).
Even the kanji for the name "Karate" was different in Okinawa. In Okinawa, "Tang (or China) Hand" was used. In Japan, this was changed to "Empty Hand." Today most people use "Empty Hand" and assume that it has always been used. But it was not popular until the 1930s. Before that, "Tang (or China) Hand" was used almost exclusively.
Why eliminate "China?" Okinawans were very close to China -- that is where and from whom they learned Karate. Japan fought wars with China. How could "China Hand" be taught on mainland Japan? In fact, how could "Okinawan Hand" be taught? Okinawans were a distinct minority in a land where the majority ruled.
My point is that we should not assume that the things we take for granted in "Karate" came from Okinawa. Many things, including a focus on formalities, were added on mainland Japan. I am not saying that this is right or wrong, merely that we should be aware of it.

I am working with Graham Noble on an interview of Sensei Pat Nakata, who first trained with Sensei Chosin Chibana in 1962. Nakata Sensei mentioned that at that time, students were not required to bow when entering and leaving the dojo, at the beginning and end of class, or at the beginning and end of kata.

What does an actuary do all day?
Actuaries work for insurance companies, in the areas of life, healthcare and property/casualty insurance. Using statistics, modeling software and formulas, actuaries analyze the financial costs of risk and help companies develop strategies to minimize that risk and reduce costs. An actuary specializing in auto insurance, for example, will analyze data related to a driver's age, sex, driving history and car to help set policy rates.
What kind of cash are we talking about here?
This is a field that pays very well. The median pay for an actuary nationally was $87,650 in 2010. Experienced actuaries can earn more than $100,000.
What do you have to do to get this job?
First comes a bachelor's degree — usually in mathematics, actuarial science, business or statistics. After graduation, an actuary will spend four to six years working toward associate certification, and then another two years earning fellowship certification status. These certifications require hundreds of hours of study to pass an exam given by one of two actuarial societies.
OK, tell me the bad part.
The amount of time and effort required to become a certified actuary — six to eight years after college, plus continuing education after earning certification — is daunting! The initial three-hour certification course requires about 300 hours of studying.
What's the upside?
It's an extremely well-paying field that's expected to grow quite a bit in the next 10 years.

Early Rockets
Rockets were invented by the Chinese, a spin-off from their invention of gunpowder--some time around the year 1000, perhaps earlier. Rockets added a new dimension to fireworks--another Chinese contribution--but, invevitably, they were also applied to warfare, as missiles to set the enemy's cities on fire.
The British took notice in 1791, when Indian troops, under Tipoo Sultan, employed rockets against them. William Congreve, a British officer, developed a military rocket and in 1806 urged its use against Napoleon. "The rocket's red glare" in the US anthem refers to the use of Congreve rockets in 1814 in an unsuccessful British attack on Fort McHenry, outside Baltimore. The aim of such rockets was notoriously inaccurate, and their use declined as artillery improved. However, commercial rockets were sold for use by ships, for carrying a line to the shore in case of shipwreck.
Still, rockets were the only credible way of reaching distant space. One visionary who realized this was Konstantin Tsiolkovsky (1857-1935), a Russian teacher who enthusiastically promoted spaceflight and wrote books on the subject, long before the idea received serious consideration.
Another was a young American, Robert Hutchins Goddard (1882-1945). A native of Worcester, Massachusetts, Goddard's family was staying at the suburban home of friends in Worcester when, on October 19, 1899, he climbed into an old cherry tree to prune its dead branches. Instead, he began daydreaming:
October 19 became "Anniversary Day," noted in his diary as his personal holiday. For instance, in 1913, he made the following priority list ("order") of things-to-do: Worcester, October 19, 1913
(Anniversary Day)
The patent application was for US patent #1,103,503, granted in July 1914 together with an earlier one, #1,102,653. "Plurality" was Goddard's term for multiple rocket stages, and the patents also covered expansion nozzles and liquid fuel, although Goddard did not experiment with them until 1915 and 1922, respectively.
In 1915, as assistant professor at Clark University, Worcester, he began experiments on the efficiency of rockets. He bought some commercial rockets and measured their thrust using a ballistic pendulum, a heavy mass suspended by ropes, to which the rocket was attached. The rocket was fired, and the height to which the pendulum rose provided a measure of the total momentum (mass times velocity) imparted to it. Goddard also used an equivalent set-up, where the mass pushed against a spring, instead of being suspended.
It can be shown from Newton's laws that the total momentum of a system free from outside forces is conserved; that is actually another formulation of the conservation of the center of gravity, mentioned in the discussion of rocket propulsion. Therefore the momentum given to the pendulum in one direction had to be equal to the momentum mv imparted to the rocket's gas jet and that momentum determined the length and height of its swing. By weighing the rocket before and after firing, Goddard could derive the mass m of the ejected gases and from that deduce v. For a 1-pound Coston ship rocket, he found that v was about 1000 ft/sec (300 m/sec).
De Laval's Nozzle
A rocket is essentially a heat engine, a device for converting the energy of heat (obtained from the chemical energy of the fuel) into mechanical energy--here the kinetic energy mv2/2 of its exhaust jet. Knowing m and v, Goddard could derive the kinetic energy given to the gas, and by burning a measured amount of the fuel, absorbing the heat (e. g. in water) and measuring the rise in temperature, the total amount of chemical energy converted to heat could also be obtained. The conclusion was rather disappointing: only about 2% of the available energy contributed to the speed of the jet.
Could this be improved? Luckily for Goddard, this problem had been solved by Gustav De Laval, a Swedish engineer of French descent. In trying to develop a more efficient steam engine, De Laval designed a turbine whose wheel was turned by jets of steam.
The critical component, the one in which heat energy of the hot high-pressure steam from the boiler was converted into kinetic energy, was the nozzle from which the jet blew onto the wheel. De Laval found that the most efficient conversion occured when the nozzle first narrowed, increasing the speed of the jet to the speed of sound, and then expanded again. Above the speed of sound (but not below it! ) this expansion caused a further increase in the speed of the jet and led to a very efficient conversion of heat energy to motion. Nowadays steam turbines are the preferred power source of electric power stations and large ships, although they usually have a different design--to make best use of the fast steam jet, De Laval's turbine had to run at an impractically high speed. But for rockets the De Laval nozzle was just what was needed.
Goddard experimented on his ballistic pendulum with various nozzle designs, using a small metal combustion chamber filled with a type of gunpowder, ignited by electricity. The end of the chamber was threaded, so that nozzles of various designs could be screwed onto it and tested. Using a De Laval nozzle, he obtained jet velocities between 7000 and 8000 ft/sec and efficiencies of up to 63%. Later he replaced the ballistic pendulum with a more compact device, in which the thrust of the rockets did not lift a pendulum against gravity but compressed a calibrated spring. With that device he showed that (contrary to some popular claims) rockets worked just as well in a vacuum.
As Goddard himself noted, that made the rocket the most efficient of all heat engines, better than piston-driven steam engines (21%) and Diesel engines (40%). No wonder: from the second law of thermodynamics, the theoretically attainable efficiency of a heat engine increases with its operating temperature, and no other heat engine runs as hot as a rocket.
After the US entered World War I, Goddard also worked for a while on military rockets, but none of his designs were implemented, though rockets somewhat similar to his design were turned in World War II into an effective weapon against tanks, known as the bazooka (a variant of this is now known as "rocket propelled grenade" or RPG).
Note: The autobiographical book by Homer Hickam "October Sky" (anagram of its original title "Rocket Boys"; later made into a film) tells of a group of high-school students in a poor Appalachian coal-mining town who, taken by the idea of space flight, design and fly home-built rockets of greater and still greater range. Their break-through comes when they discover in a book the design of the De-Laval Nozzle.
The idea of feeding the rocket with a continuous stream of solid charges also proved unfeasible, and in 1922 Goddard went back to his alternative idea, proposed independently by Hermann Oberth in Germany and also noted by Tsiolkovsky: a liquid-fuel rocket. It would have two lines running into its combustion chamber, one feeding fuel, the other oxygen, similar to the way a steel-cutting blowtorch operated, except here both lines carried liquids, not gases--in Goddard's design, gasoline and liquid oxygen. Such a rocket promised very high efficiency, but also posed serious technological challenges. Both fluids had to be pumped at a steady rate, and one of them, liquid oxygen, was extremely cold. The high temperature of combustion in pure oxygen required heat-resistant materials, and to help overcome this, Goddard developed the technique of having the liquid oxygen cool the combustion chamber on its way from the fuel tank. This method is still use: in the picture on the right, the outer part of the nozzle is covered with a large number of metal pipes, through which the cold fuel flows on its way to the combustion chamber. Another completely novel problem which faced Goddard was the guidance and control of the rocket in flight.

Another completely novel problem which faced Goddard was the guidance and control of the rocket in flight.
On March 16, 1926, Goddard flight-tested his first liquid-fuel rocket. He thought stable flight could be obtained by mounting the rocket ahead of the fuel tank, with the tank shielded from the flame by a metal cone and the lines for fuel and oxygen pulling it behind the rocket: the design worked, but did not produce the hoped-for stability. The rocket burned about 20 seconds before reaching sufficient thrust (or sufficiently lightening the fuel tank) for taking off. During that time it melted part of the nozzle, while the camera with which Mrs. Esther Goddard was trying to record the flight ran out of film, so that no photographic record of that flight remains. Then it took off to a height of 41 feet, leveled off and later hit the ground, all within 2. 5 seconds, averaging about 60 mph.
Goddard's concept seemed validated, but he was still far from a practical design. Unfortunately, he worked in isolation, without the engineering resources of a major institution. In the years that followed he continued developing his rockets--controlling their motion by gyroscopes, steering them with small vanes thrust into their exhaust jet, and building larger and faster rockets. These were tested in test stands on the ground and sometimes also in free flight, mostly at a rocket lab he established in Roswell, New Mexico.
But the actual realization of his dream fell to others who enjoyed military or national support. Goddard, unfortunately, never lived to see the age of spaceflight. He died of cancer on August 10, 1945, in Baltimore.Exploring Further

Historical Note
The ballistic pendulum was apparently invented by a Benjamin Thompson, better known as Count Rumford, whose career started as a schoolteacher in Concord, New Hampshire; his life was studied by MIT physics professor Sanborn Brown.
In the American Revolution, Thompson was actually a loyalist, a supporter of the British government who at age 20 became a major in the British militia. When the revolutionaries forced the British army out of Boston, Thompson went to Britain and served its government, both in politics and as scientific adviser. To evaluate the efficiency of gunpowder, he devised the ballistic pendulum, a heavy suspended target into which a small cannon was fired; from the rise of the target, the speed of the bullet was derived. He later entered the service of the duke of Bavaria, where he received a title of nobility "Count Rumford," Rumford being the old name of Concord.
Later he lived in France, while in England he founded the "Royal Institution" in London, a center for science research and popular lectures, the place where Humphrey Davy and Michael Faraday worked and lectured. He conducted many pioneering experiments and even invented the drip-method coffee maker.

To the Editor:
School vacations, backyard barbeques, and lazy days – all signs of summer. However, summer is also a great time for children to be active. An estimated one in three children are overweight or obese according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. Physical inactivity has been linked to an increased risk of obesity- related illnesses such as Type-2 diabetes, high blood pressure, heart disease, and certain cancers. Type-2 diabetes and high blood pressure, usually thought of as adult disease, are now showing up in youth.
The US Department of Health and Human Services' Physical Activity Guidelines for children recommend one hour or more of physical activity every day. This hour of active play can be broken up in to smaller segments for families who have a busier schedule, but the key is to find an activity that kids will enjoy doing. Some kids may love to bike around their neighborhoods with their friends, others may enjoy swimming, extreme Frisbee, or just going to their local park to play on the equipment.
We all have a role helping our kids grow to be healthy, strong adults. Several of the area's Recreation departments feature summer activities that kids can get involved with for free, or a small fee. Access to this information can be found by going through your town's website, or the town hall. Parents are an important influence on kids in staying active by modeling appropriate behavior. Going out and playing soccer or staying active with our kids is a great start to lasting memories and healthier bodies for children and adults alike.

Book Review: The Long Way Home
Posted on March 29, 2013 by Tom George
In early December, 1941 a Pan Am fly boat commanded by Captain Robert Ford and his crew of ten had almost completed their scheduled flight from San Francisco across the Pacific to Auckland, New Zealand. As the radio operator scanned the airwaves, he caught an AM radio station broadcast with the news that the Japanese had bombed Pearl Harbor—which they had left only three days before. Shortly thereafter, a Morse Coded message (their only long range form of communication) instructed them to "Implement Plan A" a Top Secret, sealed document all Pan Am captains had carried in the preceding months. Once opened, they realized that their world had changed. The arrival in Auckland was uneventful, but that would be their home for more than a week, until further instructions were received. Now they learned that it was no longer possible to return along their normal routes. The crew was directed to remove any identifiable markings from the aircraft, maintain radio silence, under no circumstances allow the aircraft to fall into enemy hands, and proceed west to LaGuardia, New York. At the time, the company had no routes established "to the west" until reaching the Atlantic, off the coast of Africa. They also had no charts, weather, radio frequencies or other information any pilot, GA or airline, would want to undertake such a trip. They were literally, in uncharted territory!
What follows is an adventure, which I found fascinating on several counts. The story is chronicled in the book, The Long Way Home, Revised Edition, by Ed Dover. Based on interviews with surviving members of the crew, and illustrated with flight logs and photographs of the aircraft and crew members, it was written in 1999 and revised in 2007. A Flight Radio Officer for Pan Am's flying boats from 1942-1948, Dover knows first-hand the technologies and procedures of the day. He transports you back to a time when a combination of dead reckoning, celestial navigation fixes, and drift sights— augmented with a new low-frequency direction finder— were their tools to navigate the 2,400 nautical miles from California to Hawaii. While not a typical GA aircraft at 82,500 pounds pushed along by four 1,600 horsepower radial engines burning 100 octane avgas, the Boeing 314 flew in the same part of the atmosphere most of us do today. So as they encountered a cold front on the way to Hawaii, Captain Ford descended to 500 feet to get below the cloud bases. I found the story to provide enough information for those of us that are pilots to have a good sense of their operating conditions, while still making the narrative read like a mystery novel. To avoid robbing anyone of the opportunity to enjoy the story themselves, let me just say that when they took off to cross Australia, Indonesia, India, to the middle East and over Africa, it is an adventure! To give you a clue—before leaving New Zealand they went to the local library and borrowed some atlases to select a route… To help follow the story, I fired up Google Earth and reconstructed the route, for my own "situational awareness."
View Boeing Clipper route around the world in Google Maps
I have a personal connection to this story. My great uncle, Captain Gordon George, flew the flying boats for Pan Am in this same time period. His career started as a Navy pilot flying seaplanes before joining the airlines, eventually retiring from the Boeing 707. As a young pilot, I enjoyed his stories of this period. He described encountering 80 and 100 mile an hour winds en route across the Pacific, only to have dispatch not believe them. Their credibility improved when the jet stream was "discovered" by the meteorological community, and it was recognized that there are bands of winds that reached those velocities. I also remember his saying at the time he retired from Pan Am that flying had become little more than "being passed from one air traffic controller to another," and that in his mind, "that wasn't really flying" After reading this book, I have a better understanding of the world that he operated in, and what he meant by the statement.
For a look at the start of true global aviation, in a time that seaplanes were the norm, and a global network of land-based airports was still in the future, I recommend this book. Aviation, adventure and a war story all wrapped into one. My thanks to Ed Dover for taking the time to research and share this rich journey with us!

CRYSTAL LAKE – Haley Ream really didn't think the ball was coming back to her.
Once the Huntley senior guard tossed it to teammate Sam Andrews as the seconds wound off the clock in the fourth quarter of a must-win game against Crystal Lake South on Wednesday, Ream figured the hot-handed Andrews would take care of the rest. The 3-point deficit the Red Raiders faced didn't concern her as long as Andrews had the ball.
South knew to disrupt that calm. The Gators' pressure forced Andrews to defer to Ream, who kicked her toes just behind the 3-point arc and lined a desperation shot that carried with it Huntley's chances of retaining sole possession of first place in the Fox Valley Conference Valley Division.
The shot went in to send the game to its first overtime, and two extra sessions later Huntley beat South, 54-52. Ream, who had flashes of nervousness when she suddenly needed to handle the critical play, never doubted the Red Raiders would.
"I was hoping it was going in. When you're looking at it like that it looks good, but you never know," Ream said. "I never thought we were going to lose, though. … [Even when] we weren't doing what we needed to do, but I didn't think we were going to lose."
In those final few seconds of the fourth quarter, the Raiders' chances seemed slim. South led 44-41 with 8.9 seconds left before Huntley coach Steve Raethz called timeout.
Andrews got the inbound pass at the top of the arc, just as the play was designed, but Andrews couldn't get off the shot. Ream caught Andrews' pass, slid to her left and took the most important shot of the season to date.
"It was nice to see her be so offensive-minded, especially down the stretc,h" Raethz said of Ream. "We really needed her to knock that down and she did it."
Huntley (18-4 overall, 8-1 FVC Valley) went ahead for the first time since just before halftime, 47-46, on a free throw by freshman Ali Andrews (game-high 28 points, 12 rebounds) with 1:04 left in the first overtime. South junior guard Rachel Rasmussen and sophomore Carly Nolan knocked down free throws to help South lead 49-47 with 13 seconds left, but Ali Andrews hit a baseline jumper to force the second overtime.
Oros' 3-pointer with 1:38 to play in double overtime put the Gators up 52-51, but Bethany Zornow and Ali Andrews hit free throws to give Huntley the final margin.
"It was a crazy game, fighting for first place (in the FVC Valley) like that, but it is what it is," said South senior guard Stephanie Oros, whose big steal and layup at the end of the first quarter had sparked a 16-8 run to help the Gators lead 25-24 at halftime. "We definitely came out and played all four quarters, then more. We gave it all we had."

Treatment for Carbon Monoxide Poisoning.
SPOKANE, Wash. (AP) — Spokane Valley firefighters say they sent three adults and an infant to hospitals for treatment of carbon monoxide poisoning. The fire department says crews had responded to a medical call at a home and were treating a 21-year-old woman Thursday morning when their carbon monoxide monitors sounded an alarm. A local utility was investigating the source of the gas. The condition of the four people was not known.

Care in Ghana by Rowena Kuijper
In the beginning of 2009 my adventure began: going to Ghana, which has been an awesome time for me! Ghana is a country in which you can walk on the street safely (also for girls and especially in the south). The people are very kind, they like it to help you and try to show you the way. Every day there are children who will call 'obruni' (white person) when they see you. People will often want to talk to you.
In the beginning I had to get used to everything, a lot of things are so different in this culture! I already learned my first night in Ghana how to greet each other by 'clicking' the fingers and I drank for the first time in my life water from a sachet. People in Ghana eat food like 'Fufu', 'Banku' and 'Kenke' and they cook on coals. But after a while things start to be normal, also washing your clothes by hand, the bucket showers when there is no water, that the electricity is off often, or that you have to wait a long time for the bus sometimes. The religious faith is also very evident in Ghana. Often you see signs above shops like 'In God we Trust Beauty Salon' or texts on cars and trotro's (small busses) like 'Jesus loves you'. There are also proverbs like 'Education is the key'.
I lived for 3 months in Cape Coast. It is very nice to live at the house of a Ghanaian family, you learn a lot about the culture because of that. The nice thing about Cape Coast is that it is a city, but not as big as for instance Accra. It is a nice city next to the sea and you can visit a few interesting things in the surrounding areas like 'Kakum national park', the city and castle of 'Elmina' and nice beaches. There were some other Projects Abroad volunteers in Cape Coast, all working at different projects. Often we met in the evenings or during the weekends. And every Tuesday evening there was a meeting at the Projects Abroad office in Cape Coast. But you'll also meet local people and make some good friendships.
I was helping for three months in the orphanage 'New Life', in Ansapetu. Ansapetu is a small village about 20 minutes from Cape Coast, but easy to reach by trotro (small bus) or if you want by taxi. The nice thing about this project is that I could combine 'teaching' and 'care' very well. I taught 3 days a week and helped 3 or 4 afternoons a week at the orphanage.
Next to the orphanage there is 'New Life Primary School'. As well as the children from the orphanage there are also around 60 other children who go to this school. Those children live in villages around the orphanage. I helped most of the time in one class (class 3, children with the age of 8-10), so I could get to know those children well. After all those weeks you really get a special feeling for those children, so it was very hard to say goodbye at the end of my time in Ghana! I also started French lessons in the upper classes (3 till 6). It was very nice that it is now in the timetable of the school. Other subjects are English, Mathematics, R.M.E. (Religious and moral education), Creative Art, Natural Science, I.C.T. and P.E. I really liked it to teach, especially when I saw that children were really learning new things from me.
With teaching I have seen that when you are enthusiastic and stay happy in front of the kids you can do a good job. What surprises me in Ghana is that at school they sometimes make use of the cane to hit children. I found that difficult to see and didn't use it myself. Another difficult thing I experienced is that there are not a lot of books in the school. There is not enough money for that. It was often the case that about 5 children had to read one book together. You can partly solve the problem by writing a lot on the blackboard, or tell them a lot of things which are written in the book instead of letting them read themselves. Another difficult thing is that because not all the parents of the children have enough money to buy work books, some children couldn't follow a lesson well.
Besides teaching I also helped at the orphanage itself. With some other volunteers I created activities to do with the children. We have made a big show with the kids, called 'New Life's Got Talent!'. After two weeks practising there was the show with dancing, plays and music. It was great!
We did also smaller activities like swimming with the kids in a swimming pool, having discos during the evening, making kites, doing sport activities and competitions, playing games, doing creative activities, cooking 'western style' etc. I have played with the kids, talked with them, laughed with them, played cards, helped them with their homework and taught some children how to cycle.
For the older kids we organised some workshops like 'medical teaching' (what to do with minor and major wounds) and a 'career-opportunity' workshop (what profession do you want to become, what education fits with what profession?). On Independence Day (which is on the 6th of March in Ghana) we went with the older children to the military parade in Cape Coast.
I liked it a lot helping in this orphanage. After those few weeks you feel very connected with the kids. It touched me when I saw that the children are very good in dividing toys and candy, unless they don't have much. You are there for a few months so you can not 'change the world', but you can decide yourself how much effort you want to put in the project.
I have learned a lot from this experience. First thing is that it is a challenge to survive in a country with a very different culture and people you do not know yet. Also being part of a minority (white person surrounded by a lot of black persons) is an experience. Besides, I have seen that also we can still learn a lot from other cultures. You are going to think more brightly after an experience like this.
During my last weeks in Ghana I went backpacking with 3 other volunteers. That was a very nice experience. The landscape is different at different sides of Ghana. In the north of the country there is more poverty and the people live more in compounds (in small communities and houses from clay). When you are thinking about doing the same, do not forget to visit the following things: 'Mole National Park' (Elephants!), 'Nzulezu' (a stilt village build on the water) the 'Volta Region' and 'Ada Foah'.
When you also decide to go on this great adventure:
- - Try to think at home already about some activities you could do with the kids and what kind of materials you will need. You can buy a lot of things in Ghana, but not everything.
- - You could do some fundraising. I did that and could sponsor 12 desks for the school and also some schoolbooks, pens etc. You could also do some fundraising for activities you like to do with the children outside the orphanage, so they will see more about the world outside the orphanage.
- - And a last thing: take care of the money you pay in the taxi. The drivers will try all the time to get you to pay more than you should. Also at the market always bargain.
When you are thinking about doing volunteer work yourself in Ghana: go for it! It will be a great experience!

U.K. stocks climbed, with the FTSE 100 Index extending its highest level in three weeks, as a report showed Britain avoided a triple-dip recession.
Vodafone Group Plc climbed to a one-week high after a report that Verizon Communications Inc. may offer $100 billion for full control of Verizon Wireless. Unilever lost 2.7 percent after the world's second-largest consumer-goods company posted the slowest quarterly revenue growth in two years. AstraZeneca Plc slid 2.5 percent as first-quarter sales missed estimates.
The FTSE 100 gained 15.08 points, or 0.2 percent, to 6,446.84 at 3:43 p.m. in London, after gaining as much as 0.6 percent and losing as much as 0.3 percent. The gauge yesterday completed its biggest two-day rally since Jan. 3 as companies reported sales that beat estimates and commodity producers rose. The broader FTSE All-Share Index advanced 0.3 percent, while Ireland's ISEQ Index was little changed today.
"There's still no end to the debate on the primary cause of the slow growth in the U.K.," said Tom Elliott, global market strategist at JPMorgan Asset Management in London, which oversees $1.5 trillion globally. "Is it austerity or is it weak growth in the euro zone? I saw Unilever reporting very weak growth largely because of Europe, so there's undoubtedly an element there."
U.K. Growth
Britain's gross domestic product grew 0.3 percent in the first quarter, according to a report from the Office for National Statistics. That beat the 0.1 percent median estimate of economists in a Bloomberg survey. The economy avoided entering its third recession since 2008 by rebounding from a contraction of 0.3 percent in the final three months of 2012. Economists define a recession as two successive quarters of shrinking output.
"I don't think we should be 'hurrahing' too much," Elliott said. "These numbers can be revised all over the place. When estimates are based on a subjective view of the effect of weather, you have to treat them with a pinch of salt."
In the U.S., applications for jobless benefits decreased by 16,000 to 339,000 in the week ended April 20, the lowest number in six weeks, according to a Labor Department report. Economists had predicted 350,000 claims, according to the median estimate in a Bloomberg survey.
Vodafone, the second-biggest stock on the FTSE 100, advanced 1.4 percent to 195.9 pence. New York-based Verizon has hired advisers to prepare a possible $100 billion cash-and-stock bid for Vodafone's 45 percent stake in Verizon Wireless, Reuters said, citing two people it didn't identify. Brenda Raney, a spokeswoman for Verizon Wireless, declined to comment to Bloomberg News.
BAT Rises
British American Tobacco Plc gained 1.3 percent to 3,593.5 pence. The maker of Pall Mall and Dunhill cigarettes said first- quarter sales excluding currency shifts rose 5 percent, exceeding the 3.7 percent average estimate of analysts surveyed by Bloomberg.
A gauge of London-listed commodity producers rose for a third day. Randgold Resources Ltd. and Lonmin Plc, which both operate mines in Africa, rallied 5.1 percent to 5,300 pence and 6.2 percent to 290.8 pence, respectively. U.K. mining stocks have still fallen 13 percent this year.
Unilever lost 2.7 percent to 2,767 pence. Sales excluding acquisitions, disposals and currency fluctuations, rose 4.9 percent from a year earlier, the maker of Dove soap said. The average estimate of 12 analysts surveyed by Bloomberg had called for a gain of 5.5 percent.
AstraZeneca dropped 2.5 percent to 3,306 pence, its biggest decline in two months. The U.K.'s second-largest pharmaceutical company said quarterly revenue fell 13 percent to $6.39 billion, missing the $6.55 billion average analyst prediction.

LONDON/SEATTLE/WASHINGTON — British aviation investigators identified an emergency beacon made by Honeywell International Inc as a likely source of last week's blaze on a Boeing Co 787 Dreamliner and called for it to be turned off, spurring a rally in Boeing shares by relieved investors.
Later on Thursday a Japan Airlines 787 returned to Boston's Logan airport after receiving an in-flight maintenance alert about a fuel pump.
A spokesman for the U.S. Federal Aviation Administration said the incident was not an emergency but nervous investors marked Boeing shares down 1.5 percent in afterhours trade.
Britain's Air Accidents Investigation Branch (AAIB) said the locator beacon and its battery was the only system on a parked Ethiopian Airlines plane at Heathrow that was near the fire and had the power to start it.
Boeing said the beacon could be removed in about an hour from its newest model plane, which was grounded for more than three months earlier this year because of overheating of lithium-ion backup batteries in two January incidents.
Shares of Boeing closed 2.7 percent higher at $107.63, near the high of $108.15 reached a week ago before the fire. The Boston incident then saw the shares slip to $106.
The AAIB said it remained unclear whether the fire was triggered by a malfunction in the beacon's lithium-manganese battery or some external force – such as an electrical short circuit – and said the probe would continue.
In its report, the AAIB also called on the FAA and other regulators to review use of such emergency beacons that use lithium-based batteries on all other aircraft.
UK officials said last week's fire was unrelated to the January incidents that grounded the 787. Investigators never determined what prompted the batteries involved in those cases to melt down, but Boeing resolved the issue by fireproofing the box they come in, and finding a way to vent any possible fire outside the plane.
While the UK report focused on the beacon made by U.S. conglomerate Honeywell, aviation experts said there could also be issues with the 787's higher humidity or other environmental factors. Water can conduct electricity, so high moisture levels could increase the likelihood of short circuits.
"The investigators are looking at everything, humidity, condensation and … how things are installed. It's a comprehensive effort," said one industry source.
Boeing's new plane has a relatively high humidity, which helps keeps passengers more comfortable, and investigators are now looking at whether there is enough insulation to prevent moisture from condensing and short circuiting systems such as the beacon, said the source, who was not authorized to speak publicly.
A source close to Boeing, speaking on condition that he not be named, said the 787 may need better isolation of electrical components from the plane's high humidity, something industry people refer to as "rain in the plane."
Analysts said they were watching for further developments.
"There's nothing about this finding that indicates a lack of safety with the plane, but on the other hand there's no conclusive proof that a system unrelated to the plane is to blame," said Richard Aboulafia, an analyst with the Teal Group.
Analyst Yan Derocles of Paris-based Oddo Securities agreed. "We have to wait for the conclusions and at that point it could be a problem for Boeing, because the succession of incidents could chip away at confidence in the 787," he said.
Boeing said the locator beacon is not required by U.S. Federal Aviation Administration regulations, although some other nations do mandate their use.
"If the AAIB recommendation is adopted by regulators, 787 operators would operate their airplanes without a functioning ELT. ELTs are not required as part of the airplane design. There was no requirement to operate the ELTs during 787 flight test," said Boeing spokesman Marc Birtel.
The beacons, also called emergency locator transmitters (ELTs) are positioned in the upper rear of the 787, and can lead rescuers to a downed aircraft. They are powered by non-rechargeable, lithium-manganese batteries used for decades in products like digital cameras, walkie-talkies and pacemakers.
Honeywell said it would help Boeing and the airlines as needed, but cautioned that it was premature to jump to conclusions about the fire. It said it did not expect any financial impact from the AAIB's recommended action.
Honeywell shares rose 0.6 percent on Thursday to close at $82.97.
The AAIB report said the fire broke out in the upper portion of the 787's rear fuselage where the ELT devices are located. "There are no other aircraft systems in this vicinity which, with the aircraft unpowered, contain stored energy capable of initiating a fire in the area of head damage," it said.
It said large transport aircraft do not have fire detection or suppression in the space above the cabin ceiling, "had this event occurred in flight it could pose a significant safety concern."
Boeing said it supported the AAIB's recommendations and reiterated its confidence in the Dreamliner's safety.
In Washington, the FAA said it was reviewing the report.
The battery linked to the London fire is made by Newark, New York-based Ultralife Corp, according to an industry source. Ultralife did not return calls or emails seeking comment. Its shares fell 1.8 percent to $3.76.
The AAIB said Honeywell had produced some 6,000 ELTs of the same design, which are fitted to a wide range of aircraft, and this had been the only significant "thermal incident."
The battery cells in the beacon showed signs of "disruption" the AAIB report said. "It is not clear however, whether the combustion in the area of the ELT was initiated by a release of energy within the batteries or by an external mechanism such as an electrical short."

JAB needed a new logo design and created a contest on 99designs.
A winner was selected from 69 designs submitted by 22 freelance designers.
I am in need of an innovative logo design for my portrait and wedding photography business. The design needs to appeal to a wide audience. I would like something that is artsy, clean, crisp, elegent, and sophisticated. I want the logo to be primarily horizontal and look good as a watermark on a photograph, or an overlay on a border that I may have around a photograph. I don't mind the initials BG integrated, but it is not required. Custom artwork is something I would like integrated into the design.
Please read my brief for more on this contest.
Check out my current website to see some of my work: http://www.brentgulledge.com
Brent Gulledge Photography
I am about to tear down my website and create two all new websites, one for weddings and one for portraits. The logo needs to work well for both sites, as well as a new blog I will be starting. The logo also needs to be primarily horizontal. I will be posting images on my blog that will utilize the logo as an overlay on the bottom of the images, or within a border that will be around the image. I want a design that is confident, classy and convey a sense of style and sophistication. I want something that appeals to men and women between the ages of 20-40. I am not opposed to the design having my intials BG integrated into it, but it is not primary concern. I would like artwork integrated or other elements as long as it is not a camera, or any cheesy photography clip art. Artwork that is layered underneth the band name is nice, or plays off of my name, or initials.
- Horizontal design
- Clean, crisp, classy, and sophisticated
- Custom artwork layered or woven into the overall design
- Appeal to men and women between 20-40
- Useful for wedding and portrait websites
- Layered Photoshop document (so I can change colors)
- No free fonts.
- No cameras, flimstrips, or photo related clip art.
- Nothing that is too feminine
- No artwork that is above/below the brand name

totally agree with you.edt wrote:non kiters have zero clue.xenosd wrote:What seems strange to me is the fact that non kiters take the responsibility of trying to launch you up. I personally select known fellow kiters to launch my kite.
So a fellow kite girl at the launch sees how windy it is and sees some spectators and thinks it would be a good idea to have one of them hold her down by the handpass loop while she walks out to the water. Spectators are clueless don't ask them to do anything don't even ask them to hand you your board, don't let them do ANYTHING.
The spectator comes right up to her grabs the bar by one end and kiteloops them both for a terrifying trip a trip to the hospital and a few stitches luckily nobody died.
Spectator obviously thought she wanted help with her control bar. They don't know the difference between a handle pass loop and a control bar.
Do no ask spectators for help. Do not ask them to hold your kite do not ask them to hold your board do not ask them to hold your beer.
It is ok for them to take pictures. That is the only thing you ever want a spectator to do.
I was out kiting last month solo and some spectators nearly called the sheriff. "We saw the wind pulled you in, the wind pull you out, sometimes the wind pulled you high up in the air but you couldn't get back to shore so we were about to call the sheriff."
They do not know anything.
No matter how terrifying the conditions are, it is always safer to launch and land solo than to ask for help from a bystander. And if it is too windy to launch solo just wait for a kiter, don't use a spectator.

Here's what she wrote about her inspiration for the project:
"Most convicts transported to Australia were convicted of petty theft, the majority of which were considered to be minor crimes by today's standards. Stolen items varied from shoes to fabrics, coats to pocket watches, purses to sheep, and jugs to yarn. More than 160,000 people, an overwhelming number, were transported 'beyond the seas' between 1787 and 1868 to serve their sentences, which were usually seven or 14 years.
As a photographer, what interested me was the impact that the theft of objects—most of a relatively small value—could have on people's lives. As a result, the photographs depict the descendants with a representation of the item that their ancestors had stolen; with the items providing a link between the ancestor and descendant." Mine Konakci
My ancestor chosen was my 5x great-grandmother, Esther Spencer, who I have blogged about in an earlier post. According to the Old Bailey she was "indicted for stealing, on the 17th of July [1794], two silver salt holders, value 18s. two silver salt spoons, value 2s. two silver pepper castors, value 1l [sic. Shilling maybe?]. a silver table spoon, value 14s. the goods of Jacob Ruffy." Initially she was sentenced to death, but that was thankfully reduced to transportation for life instead. Lucky for me!!
The bottom photo includes my daughters, Kate, aged 7 (on the right) and Georgia, aged 4.
We don't have the items that Esther stole at the time - they would have been returned to their Mr Ruffy I presume - so we improvised with various other bits of silverware.
Thanks to Mine Konakci for permission to use the photos in this way.
PS Next time I have such an important photo taken I'll make sure my fringe is cut straight ;)

Upper Cut Woodworks necesitaba un nuevo diseño de logotipo y lanzó un concurso de diseño en 99designs.
Un ganador ha sido elegido entre 114 diseños de 28 diseñadores freelance.
Upper Cut Woodworks, LLC
I am a long time Microsoft employee that is taking my woodworking hobby to the next level.
My wife and I are building small family owned business to design and build classic high-quality pieces for families that will last.
I work out of the woodshop in my garage, building entertainment centers, doll beds, custom wall pieces (bathroom mirrors, coat racks, frames, memory boards), custom tables, cabinets, baby items, pet gates, etc.
It is increasingly difficult to find quality furniture made with real wood that is harvested responsibly, and finished with a non-toxic finish. Working this way gives me immense satisfaction.
Our pieces are custom, safe, American made with American materials. Much of the work is done by hand. We use only forest stewarship council certified solid woods, and safe finishes.
Also, we are more like an "orange county choppers" family business and less like the "duggar family" :)
Please check http://www.uppercutwoodworks.com/ to see the beginning of the website with links to projects and more information about me.
Families that need solutions for their home, are inspired by pieces they see in catalogs or at retail, but need a custom solution.
When customers are inspired by something in a catalog (like Restoration Hardware, Crate & Barrel, or Pottery Barn), and want a piece custom made for their family, Upper Cut Woodworks will design and build their dream!
The logo for Upper Cut Woodworks should be clean, clear, and modern, and incorporate the materials and tools we use. It should work on a website, stationery, business cards, and signage.
It should state the company name "Upper Cut Woodworks" and the final version will need to incorporate the website address "uppercutwoodworks.com" and phone number when I have it finalized.
The logo should be delivered in vector format and PNG format, at resolution suitable for print (including large sizes for signs), email, and web. The logo should also translate well to greyscale and black and white.
I like the look of the lumberjocks logo at http://www.lumberjocks.com

Matt Hendrix of Greenville earned his first professional victory with a 15-under 273 in the eGolf Professional Tour's season-opening Palmetto Hall Championship on Hilton Head Island.
Through 10 holes in Sunday's final round, the former Clemson star had an eight-shot lead and a stranglehold on the event's $18,000 first-place prize.
Entering Sunday, Hendrix had a two-shot cushion over Hilton Head resident Chris Epperson.
On the first tee, Epperson blocked his opening tee shot well right and under a thick bush right of the cart path. A failed first swipe at the ball left him exactly where he started - hitting his third shot, which he managed to punch out roughly 30 yards onto the cart path. He was left with an opening double-bogey that dropped him down to 10-under par.
Epperson followed that up with bogeys on Nos. 5, 7 and 8 to plummet to 5 over on the day and 7 under for the tournament to finish third.
Since 2011, Hendrix has competed full time on the Web.com Tour, notching three top-10 finishes and posting a 72nd-place finish on the tour's season-ending money list in 2012. That gave him conditional status for 2013.
Derek Rende of Soddy Daisy, Tenn., was second at 10 under, five shots back of Hendrix.
The tour continues this week with the Oldfield Open, a 72-hole event at Oldfield Country Club and Callawassie Island Club.
