Do the CBS Program Practices people work directly for the Moral Majority or Jesse Helms ("A Day in the Life of TV," Aug. 17)?
It's 1986 and network censors have problems with "Capitol's" shots of tangled legs and feet, a shot that looks like bondage and how low Meredith's teddy is cut? Since all of these only generate something in the imagination of the viewer, why do these censors have such problems?
In light of the Meese Commission garbage, we have to counter these narrow-minded rantings of what people can or cannot see when it comes to sex.
People have more brains than the people that censor TV think they have. No wonder fewer and fewer people are watching the programming. A little more realism on the subject of sex could go a long way.

There's a lot of fascination about twins and whether they share a deeper connection than regular siblings. Can they read each others' minds? Can they feel each others' pain? While there may be a lot of anecdotal evidence, there's no scientific proof to support these theories. But one thing we do know for sure is the connection between twins and health.
Diseases are either due to genetic reasons, environmental, or some combination of the two. Congenital malformations, like cleft palate, and conditions like diabetes are influenced very heavily by genetic factors. Therefore, members of the same family are more likely to develop these if one family member has them.
The closer two people are genetically, the more likely they are to develop the same genetic conditions. For instance, if your brother develops diabetes, you're more likely than the general population to develop it as well. Fraternal (non-identical) twins may look more alike, but when it comes to genes, they're just as similar as regular siblings. That means that they're not more inclined to develop the same conditions as any other brother/sister pair.
However, identical twins have the same exact DNA, making them more predisposed to the same genetic health conditions than both fraternal twins and other siblings. For example, while a fraternal twin is 5 percent more likely than the average person to have a cleft lip if his or her twin has one, an identical twin is 35 percent more likely. The difference in how much more an identical twin is predisposed to the same conditions as his/her twin will vary according to the extent to which genes play a role in a condition.
But it's important to note that most conditions are not solely influenced by genetics. Environment and lifestyle often play a role, and for some conditions (like multiple sclerosis), the extent of the role played by each factor is unknown. So, while it's important to know your family health history – particularly between identical twins – avoiding toxins in the environment and living a healthy lifestyle are the best methods of maintaining health.
Do your identical twin children both have the same health condition? Tell us about it below.

With the opening of the Fraser River Bridge on July 23, 1904, the British Columbia Electric Railway moved forward to establish a regional railway to serve the logging and agricultural communities on the south shore of the Fraser River (from Brownsville to Chilliwack) that had been developing since 1860.
On August 26, 1907, B.C. Electric Railway officials and Henry Bose, Reeve of Surrey, turned the first sod at Old Yale Road, near present–day 125 Street (approximately a half mile south of the Scott Road Skytrain Station).
The railway was formally called the New Westminster–Chilliwack Railway. However, it was more commonly known as the Chilliwack Line or the Fraser Valley Line. It provided a critical link for residents and businesses traveling or moving goods between Vancouver and Chilliwack. Rail construction started in December, 1908. The community of Sullivan provided lumber for railway ties, materials for trestles, and gravel for ballasting. By the fall of 1909, track laying and electrification were underway.
The New Westminster–Chilliwack Railway cost $20,000,000 and took two years to build. Regular service to Chilliwack commenced October 4, 1910.
Over the four decades of operation, passengers and freight moved within Surrey and between communities to the east and markets to the west. A series of stations mostly small shelters, along the route in Surrey provided crucial community connections.
Milk train service began on May 4, 1910, and continued until January 18, 1939, when local processing plants and truck haulage took over. In 1929, a portable substation was added at Kennedy to boost the ability of the locomotives to haul heavier loads up the long hill from the east end of the Fraser River bridge.
In 1945, Hyland Station (at 140th Street) was demolished and two new stations built on either side of it – Burkhart – to the west and Archibald to the east. Service began on June 13 to better serve the growing number of residents
On November 6th, 1910 the BC Electric Railway(BCER) from New Westminster to Chilliwack was formally opened by Premier Richard McBride. This extension of the Vancouver–New Westminster interurban was designed to serve the agricultural communities and the forest industries of the Fraser Valley. The Market, Milk, Mail, and Owl trains provided important freight and passenger links between the Upper Valley, Surrey and the Metropolitan areas.
Local Surrey Stations provided access to the BCER passenger and freight service. Most were of the open–side shed variety except for major stations such as Cloverdale.
This is the typical configuration of a BCER train that provided service from Vancouver to Chilliwack. This passenger configuration of three cars provided service through out the lower Fraser Valley.
Anderson Station was the typical stations along the BC Electric Railway line. It provided basic shelter for passengers and freight. These stations aided the settlement and development of northern and central Surrey.
The B.C. Electric Railway was the mainstay for many parts of Surrey. It provided passenger transportation, carried the mail, and was used by the mills to ship shingles and lumber. Until 1940, students traveled to the high school in Cloverdale on the Interurban. Improvements in roads and an increase in cars and trucks in the late 1940s made rail transportation less viable. Passenger service ceased on September 30, 1950. Since then, the line has functioned solely for freight. B.C. Hydro took over the line in 1962. In 1988, the rail division was sold, and is now owned by Southern Railway of B.C., part of the Washington Group.

DTN Midday Grain Comments 02/19 11:03
Grains Lower at Midday
Early gains out of the holiday give way to broad selling during the day
session with wheat the downside leader again.
By David Fiala
DTN Contributing Analyst
General Comments
The U.S. stock market indices are mixed with the Dow near unchanged. The
interest rate products are weaker. The dollar index is 27 points lower.
Energies are firmer to narrowly mixed. Livestock trade is mixed with cattle
leading and hogs limit lower. Precious metals are firmer with gold up $18.00.
Corn trade is 2 to 3 cents lower with early gains fading with wheat trade
providing spillover pressure to start the week. The second crop in Brazil is
being planted in good condition for now. Planting is heading past the halfway
point with early rains looking to be good for germination. The energy complex
is maintaining recent gains to support ethanol a little more in the near term
with better seasonal action getting close. Weather is still limiting driving
for now with ethanol margins lower this week. Corn basis should firm again with
more weather disruptions. The weekly export inspections were decent at 941,811
metric tons. On the March chart, trade has support at the recent $3.71 1/4 low,
with the lower Bollinger Band at $3.72 3/8. Resistance is still clustered at
Soybean trade is 3 to 6 cents lower at midday with trade holding just above
$9.00 as trade talks resume in the U.S. this week. Meal is $1 to $2 lower, and
oil is narrowly mixed. South America weather should maintain the recent pattern
in the coming days. Brazil's harvest is moving along, and drier weather is
forecast in Argentina. Crush margins remain strong with meal holding $300 a ton
or better still, with January crush remaining strong. Trade talks will continue
in the U.S. this week with some progress scored this week, according to most
sources, and the March 1 deadline looming. Weekly export inspections were
decent at 1.031 million metric tons. On the March chart, resistance is now the
moving averages clustered at $9.13-9.15, which we just below, and then the
$9.01 support level from the early session lows, which is also the 100-day
moving average.
Wheat trade is 9 to 13 cents lower. Winter wheat is holding up slightly
better with firmer intra-month trade still showing, while the spring wheat
spreads have moved a nickel wider. The U.S. has seen better export business
lately, but world prices have followed the U.S. selloff the last couple of days
with European action stabilizing on Monday before selling returned. The dollar
remains near the upper end of the range but is reversing today. Cold weather is
expected to keep some stress on the Plains in the near term, with winter
wanting to hang around. Weekly export inspections were disappointing at 357,131
metric tons. On the March KC chart, support is low at $4.67 with resistance the
10-day at $4.91.

Good morning bloggers,
Thunder Graupel! Yes, this is what happened yesterday on the south side of the KC metro area. I was standing outside about to do an Instagram video (you can follow Sunny The Weather Dog on Instagram), and a Facebook Live and just as I was about to start we had a very loud roaring, the sound of thunder from a lightning bolt that likely forked across the sky above Kansas City Easter Sunday afternoon. There would be three or four more rolling sounds of thunder in the next hour even though the thunderstorm producing the lightning was around 30 miles away. What happened next was just as fascinating; graupel. Yes snow pellets, or really a conglomeration of snow, sleet, rain, and hail all spun together in these little snow pellets, not quite sleet, not quite hail, not quite rain, and not quite snow, as you can see in my hand here. It came down hard and I ended up with exactly 1″ accumulation. KCI Airport had 1.0″ of snow for a season total of 6.8″ now. 6.8 inches of snow in NINE snowfalls. You can do the math! Add in the past three winters before this one and we are at around 41 snows and 32″ of snow total or less than a 1″ per snow average. Now, we did not miss it by much. 5 to 6 inches of snow fell over some locations in northern Missouri.
What is causing this cold weather pattern? What is the reason? Take a look at this map to map comparison:
The explanation for what is going on is the LRC. The weather pattern is cycling regularly around every 44 to 51 days, centered on 47 to 48 days. The top left map above is the pattern on November 9th, and the bottom right map is from March 30th. These two dates are exactly 141 days apart, or 47 times 3. All four cycles can be seen on this one snapshot in time. The explanation of this pattern is the cycle and pattern that set up last October and November, and it will continue through next September. Yes, this part of the pattern will cycle back through in mid-May and right before July 4th.
The reason for why it is so cold right now is the blocking that developed a few weeks ago in early March and it has developed again now:
You can see the blocking highs on Wednesdays forecast map above. These high height areas help force the jet stream to be a bit stronger and farther south. In March, this had the most impact on the northeastern United States and over California with major storm after major storm. Over the plains the impacts have finally been felt with this recent snow in Missouri and our graupel thunderstorm.
This next map shows the Arctic high forming this week. And, this likely means another very strong cold front will blast through, in fact two of them. One of them on Tuesday, and then the second one later in the week.
The first system is getting organized today and tonight. Here is a surface forecast valid at midnight central time tonight.
Thank you for sharing in this weather experience featuring Weather2020 and the LRC. Go over to the blog at Weather2020.com to join in the conversation. Have a great day.

I walked around the conservatory slowly perusing the plant life looking for something different to photograph. I was not in the mood for flowers but was looking more for shapes, lines or something hidden in the design of a plant. I was not having much success and really found some of the things I wanted in the succulent area.
Problem #1 is I couldn't quite get my tripod where I needed it to be because I would be in the actual beds. Problem #2 is my 105mm lens wouldn't get me close enough either to get a tight shot from the aisle I was in. Now combine those two issues and well I was getting frustrated to say the least. I wanted this shot of a large leaf with some tiny flowers on the edges, but I just couldn't figure a way to do it. I ended up taking a few thinking I might be able to crop them. I had to finally walk away because I realized I wasn't going to get what I wanted. I ventured outside to see if by chance I could find anything interesting out there. Well that was a bust so back to the conservatory and yes you're correct if you think I went right back over to the succulent area again. I ran into 4 other photographers and we lamented about how we all seemed to be looking for that special plant to photograph. They headed out and I headed back over to the succulents.
I thought if I just look hard enough I can figure this out. I opened my tripod up and put one leg on a rock that was part of the display, moved it around and finally found a spot. Now the dilemma is can I actually get a shot that I want. So I'm standing there looking at every angle when…there he is a tiny little lizard sitting in the cup of a succulent leaf. I nearly had a heart attack. Now I'm a little frantic, will he stay there until I get my camera in the right spot and focused on him. Remember this is not a zoom lens and everything is in manual, so I have to move the tripod and lens where I want it and then manually focus everything while this little guy is sitting there patiently almost as if he is waiting… "All right, Mr. DeMille, I'm ready for my close-up." I was the one in a panic and he was just sitting there watching me. I probably took 15 photos, moving the tripod, getting the camera closer and he just sat there. Great story right? So what do I take away from this little experience you ask? Once again nature is showing me how to slow down and really look at my environment. If I had not come back to that spot and studied how I might actually get the photograph I was looking for in those succulents, I would have never met my little muse. A tiny little green guy who blended right into the leaf and seemed content in watching me contort myself and my tripod to capture his little face. There is so much to see in the tiny world of nature but if we never stop and really take the time to look around we miss it all. Thank you Mother Nature for teaching this old girl the virtues of patience and the art of slowing down. Now Henry (yes I named him) watch for me, I'll be back and hopefully have the chance to capture you once again, after all you are one handsome
little guy.
Thanks for stopping by and stay tuned to see what's on the other side of my lens.

The Lee Family. Once upon a time Noel and Rena got married and had 2 kids - Doris and Donald. Then one day, Doris got married to Jeremy and had her own 2 kids - Vince and Edda. We all live far apart, and keep moving around. It's hard to keep tabs on each other. Welcome to our blog.
Tuesday, February 19, 2008
The weirdest thing...
Edda had these 5 minute long episodes almost daily when she was in the midst of her most pronounced regression over a year ago and it especially seemed to increase when we gave her some melatonin to help with sleep. But they had gradually faded away when we stopped the melatonin and actually she started sleeping better on her own. I had hoped that we had seen the last of them. I guess not, but she didn't seem too bothered by this one...
A few days ago, Edda fell asleep on the floor which has never, ever happened before.

I think Edda is just another Lee sleeping-wise. Therefore, I am not surprised that she slept on the floor.
I just don't know. But, I have a sense that she can improve a lot. To what extend, I just don't know. But, I believe she can :) Hope my believe is not just a dream.

Sleeping on the floor, eh? Hmmm she looks like she had what Donald deemed the "ultimate lunch"? Keep an eye on her. Can you eat or drink foods that would affect your melatonin levels?

Clarion Books—1991 Ages: 3-6
"From the safety of their branch, five little monkeys taunt Mr. Crocodile, who responds by snap, snap,snapping. . .A gleeful rendition of a happy, familiar rhyme."
—ALA Booklist
IRA/CBC Children's Choice—1992
Five little monkeys sitting in a tree, teasing Mr. Crocodile, "Can't catch me!"
Do those silly little monkeys survive their foolishness? Read the story; you'll find out!
This is another monkey finger play my daughter, brought home from preschool. I loved the rhyme, but those monkeys did not meet with a happy ending! I filed the idea away.
When Five Little Monkeys Jumping on the Bed became so popular, I thought about this second rhyme again. Could it just APPEAR that the crocodile ate the monkeys? Hint: Look at the illustration below—it's on one of the last pages in the book.
This time I drew the monkeys in pen and ink. The color is watercolor crayon.

3 lbs. honey, 1 head diced garlic, 2 cups fresh chopped Shiitake mushrooms, 1 tablespoon dried thyme, 30 golden raisins, wild yeast or Red Star Premier Cuvee yeast
This was a recipe inspired by a recipe in the book Make Mead Like a Viking: Traditional Techniques for Brewing Natural, Wild-Fermented, Honey-Based Wines and Beers.
This recipe doesn't have much in the way on instructions. First I diced and roasted the garlic in no stick pan (so I didn't have to use any oil). Then I brought 3 gallons of spring water to a boil. Added the chopped mushrooms at the start of the boil. After 5 minutes took the mushroom stew off the burner and added the honey. Once dissolved, the must was brought back to a boil and then the diced garlic and thyme was added. After 5 minutes of boiling the pot was set aside to cool. After a few hours I removed the thyme. The next morning I stirred vigorously, added the raisins, and transferred to a primary fermenter with an air lock.
Brew Notes
We used a locally sold pure honey from Moenck Honey Farms in Lehigh, IA. The Shiitake mushrooms were Monterey brand and the thyme was home grown and dried. The original recipe does not call for thyme, but I had some on hand and threw it in. I took it out after the boil because I was afraid I had put too much in. After it cooled the garlic was the dominant note anyway. The recipe originally called for 4-12 HEADS (not cloves) of garlic! I wasn't that brave and just did 1 large head.
After a small scare of infection on our Viking Spring Mead recipe and since there were still no signs of a healthy fermentation I decided not to take any chances with this recipe either and reboiled the must, cooled with a wort chiller, and then added some Red Star Premier Cuvee yeast. Perhaps I just got lucky with my first wild yeast recipe, but in the future I plan the first harvest wild yeasts and then create starters from wild yeast strains that show promise (as described in http://bootlegbiology.com/diy/capturing-yeast).
Tasting Notes
Wow. Just wow. You really need to be a Viking to enjoy or even drink this. I think some chicken could cook up really nicely with a bit of this though, so I'll have to report back after trying it in a dish.

Monday morning the health world was shaken by the news that a government task force (U.S. Preventive Services Task Force, a government panel of doctors and scientists) said that most women do not need mammograms in their 40s and should get one every two years starting at 50. This came as a shocking reversal and a break with the American Cancer Society's long-standing position. What's more confusing is that the panel said breast self-exams do no good, and women shouldn't be taught to do them. This is leaving many women with questions and concerns. I am one of those women. I always believed that early detection is prevention. Why would we want to post pone detection? Especially when we hear so many stories about women who have been saved by early detection. That's my opinion, but this blogger wants to hear yours. Please leave any thoughts or comments you may have about this topic and please be sure to check out our article where you can also leave comments.
How do you feel about the new mammogram advice?

I need some advice. My sister emailed me this morning -- this is the sister closest in age to me who is married to a redneck a-hole that verbally abuses her. Said redneck a-hole was laid off about a month or so ago and it put a lot of strain on their little family. Sister found a job as a teaching assistant at a local high school and put their 4 (almost 5) year old son in preschool/daycare while her hubs searches for a job. Hubs found a good lead on a job last week, and while this might be a good thing, here's where the fun begins.
At first a-hole was apparently happy that she was working in the "we'll both make money and not be struggling to get by" vein. But after the first day of tears from my nephew, he demanded that she quit her job and stay home. Again.
I've talked with her about this. It's good for nephew to be in this environment now because he has to go to Kindergarten next year and he's never been around other kids -- let alone away from her for 8 hours a day -- and this way "real" school won't be such a jolt for him. She says he tells them fun stories about being there and every time she calls (which, knowing her is about 3 times a day) the teachers reassure her that he's laughing and having fun.
The email this morning, though, said that nephew was waking up in the night crying that she has to work and he has to go to school. She is getting pressure from the hubs to leave. She's feeling so torn. Because, secretly, though she won't admit it aloud, she wants this job. She wants an identity again. And she wants to be able to make her own money. I know she was looking to have me say, "Honey, it's okay. Go ahead and quit and stay home with your son. You won't be able to do that much longer as he starts real school next year, so take what you can. You can look for another job."
But I don't want to say that and I'm really struggling with what to say because 1) I don't want to turn her away from seeking me out and 2) I don't want to be another pressure on her and 3) I've never been in her situation. Mo Chuisle went to daycare at 6 weeks old because I had to (had to) return to work. It was hard, and I cried a lot, but we got through it and now it's normal for us. And she does really well with other kids.
So, I don't know what she's going through, and I'm hurting for her. .
How do I help her?

Charlie Hebdo is the satirical French weekly which, over the years, has lampooned Islam, Popes, Christianity, Judaism and many non-Religious groups and persons, as well. Two terrorists entered the weekly's offices last week, apparently to send a message to France–and perhaps to the World–by killing ten journalists and two police officers in its attack on Charlie. Two days later, accomplices followed-up the prior attack by killing a police officer on the street, and then four Jews in a Kosher market, in Paris.
With their blood-soaked offices sealed by Police, the staff of Charlie Hebdo has vowed to continue on. The attorney for the magazine told French radio that the staff: "…will cede nothing to extremists seeking to silence them". While Charlie Hebdo previously was lucky to sell even 50,000 copies per edition, for the first issue (on Wednesday) since the attack, it is printing 3 Million copies of the special "survivors edition", in response to considerable worldwide interest.
The linked story, from Agence France-Presse, describes the resurrection of Charlie Hebdo as follows: http://www.msn.com/en-us/news/other/mohammed-holds-je-suis-charlie-sign-in-new-charlie-hebdo/ar-AA85wHs?ocid=ansnewsafp11#image=2. The front page of the new issue, with a representation of The Great Prophet with a tear, holding a sign stating "Je suis Charlie. Tout est pardonne" (I am Charlie. All is forgiven.) might further infuriate some Muslims. But, for the surviving Charlie staff, as noted, they are not going to cede anything to anyone! Perhaps that will be their closure.
Has Charlie Hebdo traditionally been in poor taste, disrespectful? Perhaps. But, the whole point here, and the apparent reason that 2.7 Million French and others joined the march on Sunday, was to declare their solidarity, not only with Charlie, but with the People of France. And, in doing so, they joined in supporting the vey idea of Freedom of Screech…and the Press. And, isn't taste really in the mind and the eyes of the beholder?

History: Theories of the origins of Nunchaku (or Flail) and tools resembling nunchaku are quite varied. It should again be pointed out that the Chinese were using a variety of this weapon, the "Shuang-chin-kun" long before it was recorded in Okinawa. It is said that tools resembling nunchaku were used by rice farmers to assist with gathering rice from the ponds (by sweeping around the plants in an arc and pulling them into the boat). Another variety was used for threshing grain, wheat and rice (that is for beating harvested plants to remove the seed from the husk). A similar tool may also have been used for crushing beans. Yet another theory is that it was adapted from an instrument carried by the village night watch, made of two blocks of wood joined by cord. The night watch would hit the blocks of wood together to attract people's attention and then warn them about fires and other dangers. And lastly, it is believed that a similar device was used as a horse bridle (the handles were originally slightly curved to fit on either side of the horse's head, and the thick joining rope was the actual bit that went into the horse's mouth.) Many people were introduced to the Nunchaku by Bruce Lee in the 1970s. It can be a "flashy" weapons and because of this it is frequently seen in Karate demonstrations. Many police departments used to carry nunchaku, although this practice is not as common anymore because of the perception of excessive force.
Description: The Nunchaku is made from two hardwood sticks (red or white oak is common) connected by nylon cord or chain. The connection was originally made by horse hair rope or an Okinawan vine called Kanda. The sections are tapered from the chord end to the larger predominant strike end. The sticks can vary in length, size and weight, as well as the length of the connection between the two sticks. The length is normally as long as the forearm, but it can vary (having the proper length nunchaku will allow the karateka to hold the nunchaku together at the top of the shaft, using each shaft as a protection or guard for the forearm.) The round stick variety is called maru-gata nunchaku. The octagonal (eight sides) variety is called hakakukei nunchaku. There are many variations to Nunchaku, including three section and four section weapons, as well as sticks of varied size attached together.
1 HIMO – Rope
2 KONTO – Top
3 ANA – Hole
4 JOKON BU – Upper Area
5 CHUKON BU – Middle Area
6 KIKON BU – Lower Area
7 KONTEI – Bottom
Technique: The Nunchaku is used to jab, strike, block, hit, twist, pinch, choke and trap an opponent. Strikes are made overhand, underhand, from the left or right side, and often incorporate a Figure 8 motion. The sticks can be used for spearing, striking and blocking. The rope or chain can choke, block or trap. Use of the Nunchaku requires the martial artist to be equally proficient with either hand. During it's use the weapons is switched from one hand to the other as needed. The grips are similar to that of the Sai in name, Honte-Mochi" (Natural), "Gyakute-Mochi" (Reverse), and Tokushu-Mochi" (Special grip). The special grip falls into "Ippon-Tsuki" (single thrust) and "Tatami-Tsuki" (folding thrust). Traditionally this weapon is not used in pairs, as the actions of the one should be sufficient. History has not endowed this weapon with traditional kata. In the past, the essence of the weapon has been the kumite, exploring distance, angles and footwork. Impact should be on the tip of the weapon or it will bounce back on the user. Kata are being designed in the present by those who are proficient in their traditional Okinawan use to enable better handling and combination work. Unlike the exotic flailing actions portrayed in martial arts movies, the exponent of nunchaku was very conservative in his movements. No true exponent would spin the nunchaku under his legs or around his neck while his enemy was attempting to kill him. The skill was in effective blocks and instant, accurate strikes at the enemy. If the flail hit a target then it would bounce back and had to be brought within the user's control quickly. Nunchaku power was developed through repetition of Kata, which developed a powerful and accurate strike. These techniques complemented the empty-hand styles. Nunchaku are glamorized by their swinging ability. A swinging nunchaku can reach in excess of 85 miles per hour. Swinging techniques are grouped by the direction of the swing. Examples are: up strike, down strike, horizontal strike, and the figure eight motion. Swinging techniques can also be used defensively where the karateka swings the nunchaku to deflect or otherwise stop a strike (i.e. in defense of a low kick). Truly, tremendous forces can be created via swinging the nunchaku. But, they can also be as an effective defensive/control tool.
Defensive techniques include: using the shafts of the nunchaku held together as an augmented block along the forearm; using the rope or chain to catch and control strikes and grabs; and using both shafts separated as a cross block technique for overhead and low strikes. Finally, the nunchaku can also be used in a punching or clubbing motion. It can virtually imitate most karate hand strikes. For example, it can be used in an augmented punch or chop. However you use the nunchaku, it compliments empty hand karate training immensely. It also develops good hand-eye coordination and a "feel" for body position and technique. Popular myth say nunchaku were originally used as a flail, but this is a mistake since the Okinawan flail, like the European variety used a long (human-height length) handle. The lower popularity of nunchaku as a weapon (as evidenced by the lack of formal kata) came probably from its low effectiveness when used against a sword or staff. Against these common weapons the tonfa or kama give more chances to defeat the opponent. But one who was skilled in nunchaku usage was able to easily defeat a few opponents, who were unarmed or armed with knives.

RAF Waddington International Airshow
One week to go!!
RAF Waddington International Airshow is next weekend, so check dis out… www.waddingtonairshow.co.uk
I was rather taken aback by the ticket prices, but then again, everyone knows I'm still living in the past…been here in Lincoln too long!!
This coming week is going to be busy with aircraft arriving from all over the world for the static and flying displays…and the Vulcan is going to be there!
The camera is on charge just in case either of us get the opportunity to get any pictures, but our view from here is somewhat obscured by the monster hedge and ash tree that have grown so much since I first moved here in 1991.
Now here's a thing from way back in the mists of time…Saturday 7 June 1980 to be precise…RAF Waddington Open Day. Ticket price…20p. Yes, that is correct…a whopping twenty pence!!! RAF Waddington was not the big international station it is today, and in those days was a local event…for local people. Those were the days! Just look at those vast crowds everywhere!!
June 28, 2009 6:38 pm
My Mum has first class views when the little airport of Lydd has airshows. The flight path is right over her garden. Seen some fantastic displays.My Aunt lives in view of the airspace over Rochester Airport. When I was visiting the year before last there was a brand new prototype RAF helicopter being put through its paces. Absolutely took your breath away at the stunts it was performing, really had heart in mouth moments. Beats stoopid theme park rides any day just watching them for the adrenalin rush.Hope you get a good view.
June 28, 2009 6:46 pm
We used to have fantastic views when we lived at the bottom of Waddington Hill…bro used to climb out of his bedroom window and sit on the roof to watch and take photos.We used to be able to go to Waddington and watch from the grass verges surrounding the camp, but they\'ve put a stop to that, and built a viewing area…which they charge for!!
Princess permalinkJune 28, 2009 7:10 pm
Yo Sandi! Hope u enjoy the show, great pics! U have urself a great evening! Luv PF XXX
June 28, 2009 7:22 pm
Ah, fond memories of airshows past, PF…Rochester and Biggin Hill as a child, then Scampton and Waddington after moving here…and the sunburn down one side of my face…!!!We probably won\'t be able to see much from here, with the hedge grown so big, so I\'ll be taking the camera to work with me…you never know…!!
June 28, 2009 7:24 pm
Apart from the Vulcan, the bottom pics are…a Dakota, a Phantom, and an F16 (I think).
June 28, 2009 8:39 pm
Sandi, hard to tell for this angle but I\'m pretty certain the bottom aircraft is an F-111. The windscreen is wrong for an F-16.
June 28, 2009 8:49 pm
I believe you are correct…F-111s were the thing in those days…F16s are more modern planes, aren\'t they!We had Phantoms, Lightenings, Jaguars, Bucaneers, Vulcans…and you had the F-111…sounds really techy and glamourous!
June 28, 2009 8:50 pm
Robert is at pub watching football (soccer)…America are beating Brazil 2-1 at the mo!
June 28, 2009 10:24 pm
Aaaaw…they lost to Brazil…! Ne\'mind. Better luck next time.
simon permalinkJune 28, 2009 10:53 pm
The Vulan I recognise (and still wince at the sound) having lived near a base in UK. I say near, anything within Miles knew it was passing- UK Falklands war saw it back into frequent use then. Now Concorde – there was a blast for the ears. Sadly gone now. WE have a annual free event in Bournemouth, on the sea front. August I think this year? Come on down – it\'s worth it.
June 28, 2009 11:21 pm
Apparently our talking heads have it wrong. They just reported the US beat Brazil 3-1 for the gold.
June 29, 2009 10:30 am
They did? Robert has blogged about it, so nip over to his to see what he had to say on the match…he was hooked, said it was a brilliant game…I\'ll take his word for it!!
June 29, 2009 10:38 am
Ah, Simon…the Vulcan…I\'ll be listening out for it this week…I\'d know that noise anywhere!! The same as knowing the Dakota, and the BBMF when I hear them. When I\'ve been in town with Mum, and we\'ve heard a plane, I\'ll say that sounds like the Dakota, or that sounds like the Lanc, etc…and I\'m usually correct. I love piston engines, be they Rolls Royce Merlins or Pratt & Whitney, or whatever…it\'s a sound to give me goose-bumps.
June 29, 2009 12:53 pm
The last pic is indeed a General Dynamics F-111 \'Aardvark\', with the rear end of a Fairchild A-10 Thunderbolt (or Warthog as it is affectionately known) just in view to the right. Wish I still had all my pics from the old days – I had hundreds of shots of stuff from all the airshows I used to go to – Farnborough, Biggin Hill, various RAF/USAF bases – those were the days…
June 30, 2009 9:56 am
Biggin Hill and Rochester as a kid, with the family, then after we moved here Waddington and Scampton….yeah, those were the days!We had the Nimrod flying around here, yesterday…working or doing it airshow bit, I don\'t know.
Bran permalinkJune 30, 2009 12:49 pm
Nearest we get to an air show is Culrose (Helston, Cornwall)open day, we avoid it like the plague unless we want to spend hours in the traffic and anyway we have the rescue choppers and local helicopter services to the Scilly Isles flying past more frequently than the buses in this area. However if we need an aviation buzz "The Red Arrow\'s" come to Penzance and Mounts Bay area every couple of years and their most spectacular flight path is to suddenly appear over the hills and dive down to sea level — Guess where the hill is, that\'s right just by our cottage, sit on top of it when the display is on and you can feel the heat from their afterburners and see the pilots in their cockpits what a blast, front row seats at eye level with the pilots cant be beaten!
June 30, 2009 8:45 pm
Sounds brilliant…better than at an air show, Bran…and without the hassle of crowds and traffic. They used to begin their display by arriving from behind the spectators…but H&S Gestapo put a stop to that. As they train over Scampton, just north of Lincoln, we often get to see them. Yeah, we\'ve got the Red Arrows and the BBMF…and the Vulcan, but I\'m not sure if that is actually based in Leicestershire still or if it has \'come home\' to Waddington yet. There was talk of it.
July 4, 2009 9:45 am
Today\'s the day! Bad news…the Vulcan did not get it\'s certificate in time, that would allow it to display…so it\'s static for the weekend. For shame!The weather is beautiful…I thought it was going to be wet and grey, like yesterday, but the sun is shining, and the Red Arrows will be able to do the full display…which means I will, hopefully get some pictures if they come over this way.Other years, I have been able to listen to the radio…airshow FM 103.6….in the kitchen, so I knew what to expect and when. I have no idea where the radio is, as we usually use the one in the bedroom now…and Robert has gone to bed. Oh, well….lots of listening and wondering what\'s going on, I guess!Cameras and binoculars are at the ready in case I can get a glimpse of anything…flying begins at 10.30 and ends at 5.30….wish I\'d said \'yes\' now, when Robert asked if I wanted to go….oh, well….
July 4, 2009 10:20 am
I can hear a Chinook pounding away quite close…but where is it?!!!
July 4, 2009 3:25 pm
Well, well, well, this airshow is proving to be a bit sedate, so far. Apart from the Red Arrows putting on an exciting display, as usual, I have hardly heard a sound, and what I can hear seems to be trainer aircraft and other small-fry…and the BBMF. Where are all the noisy big boys?!! That is what people go to these airshows for, isn\'t it…to be thrilled by what the latest technology has to offer…like the Eurofighter Typhoon, and favourites like the noisy Tornados!!
July 4, 2009 5:42 pm
I think they are all at my house in the form of Owen and Ava. Karen just dumped them off on me because Clare has not got home in time to have them for the night. They have eaten OUR dinner already. She just rang to say she\'ll be another hour yet!!!!!!!!! Ava\'s squeals of laughter will drown out any heavy aircraft.
July 4, 2009 6:17 pm
I predict a riot, I predict a riot…! What\'s that coming over the hill, is it a monster?!!You love it really!!
July 4, 2009 7:20 pm
I do love having them, even more so when it is unexpected. They are good as gold and no trouble really. But I have no idea how I managed or where the energy came from when my two were little. Am glad I only have them in small doses.
July 4, 2009 7:30 pm
Aaaaah, bless. They are sweet…I enjoyed your tales of Ava…hehe.
July 4, 2009 7:35 pm
I mistakenly erased the emails about her in the swimming pool and in B&Q\'s before I got them printed off. Would have blogged them otherwise. Shame.
July 4, 2009 7:39 pm
So-o-o-o funny….I still chuckle at the thought.
July 4, 2009 8:59 pm
Just popped to kitchen to wash dishes and thought the cutlery felt odd……….little beggars had tightly wrapped each individual knife, fork and spoon in sellotape.
July 4, 2009 9:02 pm
ROFL!!!! Nice one!!
July 5, 2009 3:40 pm
Having the radio on has made it easier to get some pics…with the SLR (if they turn out OK!), because I know when certain planes are going to be flying in, or taking off to move out to their holding areas.The Blades flew straight overhead…while I was faffing about with the camera…DOH!!My opinion of this airshow is that it has been put together with the geriatrics in mind…sedate! What I mean is…BORING!!! Apart from the BBMF and Red Arrows, the Typhoon is the only other thing of interest…and it\'s been left to the end….wake me up then…yawn!
July 5, 2009 5:35 pm
I tell you what I\'m gonna do….Frankie\'s doctors have forbidden her from driving, much less flying her broom so she won\'t be able to help out but I do have a sister who is famous in Ohio for performing intricate aerobatics on her broom while smoking a cigar, thus spelling out all sorts of colorful phrases (mostly blue). Sam J Frog, Britain needs you!
July 5, 2009 7:09 pm
Rumour has it that as the Vulcan couldn\'t fly today because of the paperwork, when it\'s cleared for display it\'ll do a special over Lincoln on Tuesday. Hope so…
July 5, 2009 7:13 pm
So do I….and I hope I see it this time!
July 5, 2009 7:14 pm
Er..so is Samuel J male or female…I\'m confused, Chip…I\'m confused!!!!
July 5, 2009 7:23 pm
female….sometimes…..sometimes sex is undetermined….gave up smoking the cigar while flying….caught the broom on fire…..crashed landed and had to buy one of them funky brooms with the plastic bristles. now only fly in circles….have to wait to find an old fashion straw broom….they stopped selling them door-to-door…..Deck brroms don\'t turn easily
July 5, 2009 7:26 pm
oooooooooooops! no sex…causes diseases….like kids! Don\'t need no more of those….
July 5, 2009 7:49 pm
LOL! Crazy…just like the rest of us!! What\'s that line from one of David Bowie\'s songs…\'I\'d rather stay here with all the madmen, \'cos I\'m quite convinced they\'re all as sane as me…!!!\'

Quick add comment/link for Samuel J Frog. http://www.amazon.co.uk/Harry-Potter-Nimbus-2000-Broom/dp/B00005LBXSHint- it works best with the batteries in it- sadly this broom is in very short supply…

I thought it was "than perish with all the sad men roaming free…" but who knows.Day after day, they take my friends awayTo mansions far awayTo the fa-a-a-a-r side of townWhere the thin men roam the streetsWhile the sane stay undergroundThe Man Who Sold The World – Fabulous album
July 5, 2009 10:17 pm
That line as well…one of my favourite albums by DB.Hey…I\'m getting used to these British/American translations y\'know. When Chip goes "Bwahahahahahaha" it\'s the same as our "Mwahahahahahahaha"….easy-peasy….!! "If they ask for crisps give \'em chips, and if they ask for chips give \'em fries" is what Chip will say if he has any British friends visiting…see, I know the lingo…mwahahahaha….!!!
July 5, 2009 10:32 pm
and our cookies are your biscuits…….I\'m learning to speak Brit as well Mwahahahahahahahahaha!!!
July 5, 2009 11:46 pm
dang batteries won\'t fit! must need one of them converter thingees!
July 6, 2009 12:15 am
Sam, you know they talk funny over there. Do you really think a culture that would call cookies biscuits is gonna mean "D cells" when they say batteries? FYI – when a Brit says batteries they mean canisters of headlight fluid.
July 6, 2009 2:05 am
Ugh! ::choke:: Just swallowed the magnets….
July 6, 2009 11:28 am
Headlight fluid? Wassat?
July 6, 2009 11:49 am
Sounds like someone\'s headlight is broken and filled up with water, when it rained…?!!!
July 6, 2009 11:55 am
When we say batteries we mean those little things you put in stuff to make \'em go…like watches have little round batteries…and torches take AA batteries…no, wait a minute, clocks take AAs don\'t they…! Torches take the bigger batteries.But I am intrigued…what is headlight fluid…? Do you mean to say that you guys still have oil lamps…?!!!

If you have Fabry disease, you know it can be a challenge. Sometimes, it helps to know that you are not alone. Here are some perspectives from others who live with the disease:
"When I was diagnosed with Fabry disease, I was glad to finally find out what I had. When I was young, I could never play sports and I could never run. So when I found out, it was a relief to understand why."
"Having Fabry disease has brought our family closer in many ways. We talk about the treatment. We help educate each other. We share experiences and that helps us deal with it."
"We first found out that we had Fabry disease in our family when my mother-in-law went in to see the eye doctor. Two of her sons had kidney failure and we didn't know why. The eye doctor saw the whorling pattern in her eyes and said, 'I think I know what caused your sons' kidney failure.' The family was tested and we found that, yes, we had Fabry disease in our family."
"Telling teachers and coaches that my son has Fabry disease is a challenge. I think they want to sympathize but may not know how because they've never heard about it before. I tell them what to look for. He might get a headache and he overheats fast. Make sure he has water. I do that with everybody - the coaches, the teachers, everybody. "
"My wife didn't know about Fabry disease. She didn't always realize how much pain I was going through. A lot of our social activities got interrupted because I couldn't do something. We worked through it, but it was plenty hard. I know it was hard on her, too, seeing what I was going through."
"Advocating for oneself is not easy when it comes to Fabry. I have had to talk to many others who don't know about it. Like my softball coach. When we'd get out in the heat, he'd be saying, 'run laps'. And I'm doing what I can, but I'm overheating because I'm not sweating very much, and my hands and feet are on fire. And he just could not understand that at all. I hated it. But you do what you can to get your point across. And if they don't believe you, you just move on."
"When I was a teenager, I knew that I could pass Fabry disease on if I had children, but I thought the only symptoms I would experience were that my hands and feet would hurt when I got a fever, along those lines. But women can have more than just the mild symptoms. When my mother passed away, she'd had a stroke. She had some kidney failure, she had multiple heart problems."
"A lot of information on Fabry disease says girls are just carriers, they will not have the disease. And here I have my daughter with raging fevers, burning hands and feet, not being able to move for four or five days, missing school. It took a long time to find someone who would listen, and it was very frustrating. Her gym teacher thought she was just lazy, you know, and she's passing out from heat exhaustion."
These patients and others have shared their experiences with Sanofi Genzyme for one compelling reason: To reach out and make a difference in the lives of others living with Fabry disease.
Fabrazyme® (agalsidase beta) is used to treat patients with Fabry disease. Fabrazyme lowers the amount of a substance called globotriaosylceramide (GL-3), which builds up in cells lining the blood vessels of the kidney and certain other cells. The lowering of GL-3 suggests that Fabrazyme may improve how Fabry disease affects your body; however a relationship of lower GL-3 to specific signs and symptoms of Fabry disease has not been proven.
Life-threatening severe allergic (anaphylactic) reactions have been seen in patients during Fabrazyme infusions. Approximately 1% of patients who have received Fabrazyme either during a clinical study or after Fabrazyme was approved have experienced anaphylactic or severe allergic reactions during their infusion. These reactions have included: localized swelling of the face, mouth and throat, narrowing of breathing airways, low blood pressure, hives, difficulty swallowing, rash, trouble breathing, flushing, chest discomfort, itching and nasal congestion. People who have experienced these reactions have required treatment including heart/lung resuscitation, oxygen, fluids given through the vein, hospitalization, and have needed treatment with inhaled drugs called beta-adrenergic agonists to help open the breathing airways, antihistamines, epinephrine (also known as adrenalin), and a medication given through the vein called a corticosteroid (or steroid) which helps to decrease the body's allergic reaction by decreasing inflammation. If you experience a severe allergic or anaphylactic reaction, your healthcare professional will immediately stop the infusion of Fabrazyme and provide you the necessary emergency medical treatment. Because of the possibility that severe allergic reactions may occur, appropriate medical support should be available during your Fabrazyme infusion.
Providing Fabrazyme to patients who have experienced severe or serious allergic reactions to Fabrazyme should only be done after carefully considering the risks and benefits of continuing the treatment, and only under the direct supervision of a qualified healthcare professional and with appropriate medical support readily available.
The most common side effects reported with Fabrazyme are infusion reactions, some of which were severe. When Fabrazyme was tested in clinical studies, infusion reactions occurred in approximately 50-55% of patients. Serious and/or frequently occurring side effects (occurring in 5% or more of the patients) thought to be related to Fabrazyme have included one or more of the following: chills, fever, feeling hot or cold, trouble breathing, nausea, flushing of the skin, headache, vomiting, burning and/or tingling sensation, fatigue, itching, pain in the hands and feet, high blood pressure, chest pain, throat tightness, abdominal pain, dizziness, rapid heart rate, nasal congestion, diarrhea, swelling in the legs, muscle pain, back pain, paleness of the skin, slow heart rate, hives, low blood pressure, face swelling, rash and sleepiness.
People with advanced Fabry disease may have heart problems, which may put them at a higher risk for severe complications from infusion reactions, and these patients should be watched closely during their infusion if the decision is made to give them Fabrazyme.
Other serious side effects that were seen in the clinical studies included stroke, pain, lack of muscle coordination, slow or irregular heartbeat, stopping of the heartbeat, decreased blood pumped by the heart, dizziness, hearing loss, and kidney problems resulting in too much protein leaving the body in the urine (nephrotic syndrome). These side effects also occur as part of Fabry disease.
Severe and serious infusion reactions have been reported since Fabrazyme has been approved, some of which were life threatening including anaphylactic shock (a severe allergic reaction). In addition to the above side effects, the following have been reported since Fabrazyme has been approved: joint pain, lack of strength or energy, redness of the skin, increased sweating, reactions at the place where the catheter to give the infusion is placed, increased tearing from the eyes, allergic inflammation of blood vessels, enlarged lymph nodes, decreased sensitivity to touch or pressure, decreased sensitivity of the mouth, sensations of an abnormal heartbeat, runny nose, low oxygen (in general), and low oxygen levels reaching different parts of the body.
Since Fabrazyme has been approved, there have been side effects that resulted in death that may or may not be related to the use of Fabrazyme. These included: the heart and/or lungs stop working (known as cardiorespiratory arrest, respiratory failure, and/or cardiac failure), life-threatening infection in the blood stream (known as sepsis), stroke, heart attack, kidney failure, and pneumonia. Some of these side effects were reported in Fabry disease patients with significant underlying disease.
The safety and effectiveness of Fabrazyme in patients younger than 8 years of age have not been studied.
Most patients taking Fabrazyme who develop IgG antibodies, which are commonly produced by your immune system in response to things it does not recognize as naturally being part of your body, do so within the first three months of taking the medication. In children, the development of these IgG antibodies was associated with Fabrazyme staying in the body for a longer time (prolonged half-life), which was rarely seen in adult patients.
In the clinical studies, a few patients developed IgE antibodies or a reaction to an allergy skin test specific to Fabrazyme. IgE antibodies are usually produced by the body's immune system during an allergic reaction. Your doctor should consider testing for IgE antibodies if you experience suspected allergic reactions and consider the risks and benefits of continued treatment with Fabrazyme if you have IgE antibodies against Fabrazyme.
Fabrazyme is available by prescription only. To report adverse events you may contact Sanofi Genzyme at 1-800-745-4447, option 2. To learn more, please see the full prescribing information (PDF) or contact Sanofi Genzyme at 1-800-745-4447.

Paperback – 30 Apr 2018
- Paperback: 278 pages
- Publisher: Cambridge University Press (30 April 2018)
- Language: English
This book is a concise biography of Babur, who founded the Timurid-Mughal Empire of South Asia. Based primarily on his autobiography and existential verse, it chronicles the life and career of a Central Asian, Turco-Mongol Muslim who, driven from his homeland by Uzbeks in 1504, ruled Kabul for two decades before invading "Hindustan" in 1526. It offers a revealing portrait of Babur's Perso-Islamic culture, Timurid imperial ambition and turbulent emotional life. It is, above all, a humanistic portrait of an individual, who even as he triumphed in South Asia, suffered the regretful anguish of an exile who felt himself to be a stranger in a strange land.
