RPR Float TableThursday, July 18th, 2013
The Float table is a matrix of "magnetized" wooden cubes that levitate with respect to one another. The repelling cubes are held in equilibrium by a system of tensile steel cables. It's classical physics applied to modern design. Each handcrafted table is precisely tuned to seem rigid and stable, yet a touch reveals the secret to Float's dynamic character.

Possessed hand – Digital humanTuesday, June 19th, 2012
News from the future, they're proposing this as a way to help learn to play a musical instrument. Mortal fools, wasting their time playing musical instruments, when they could be juggling.
More info, only in Japan.
One day, we won't need to practice contact juggling, we will download tricks directly into our brain implants. Ahead of the game, MoM have a new introductory offer: We will sell you palm spinning 10 balls-in-1 hand for just £10. (You supply the balls).
John Cleese Talks on CreativityMonday, April 9th, 2012
Following a discussion about creativity with MCP earlier today, here is John Cleese explaining creativity and how to become more creative. Aimed primerily at a business audience, the background of his lecture is scientific, the guide based on his own experience. (35 minutes long, but worth it.)
Interesting stuff, plus play features heavily.

The Good Life (of a Juggler)Thursday, February 23rd, 2012
This video begins by showing a kendama battle; a group of kendama enthusiasts throwing a series of increasingly complex tricks in a backyard competition. The small crowd explodes with excitement when the winner throws his final move, they celebrate together as if this was THE main event of the year. As a viewer, it is a unique glimpse into a very small world.
This is a collection of those awesome moments that happen when you are in the company of amazing people (and the camera just happens to be pointing in the right direction at the right time) Kyle Johnson makes the best videos, and I think he understands what this 'ministry' thing is all about better than we do.

Critical Essay by Richard P. Lynch
SOURCE: "Evelyn Waugh's Early Novels: The Limits of Fiction," in Papers on Language & Literature: A Journal for Scholars and Critics of Language and Literature, Vol. 30, No. 4, Fall 1994, pp. 373-86.
In the following essay, Lynch contends that Waugh's lack of didacticism in his early novels points to his view of the limited ability of fiction to express permanent, meaningful ideas.
Apart from his own willingness to classify himself as an entertainer, one of the major reasons for the general view of Evelyn Waugh's early novels as frivolous is that they betray little in the way of overt philosophical content. While it is true that the didactic novel has fallen into disfavor and we tire of the Rupert Birkins more easily than we used to, we still demand a message from fiction, and Waugh seems...

Located in the Calvados area, in Normandy, France, Falaise is proving to be a popular holiday destination for those people that want to experience a more authentic side to France. Self catering accommodation in Falaise comes more often than not in the form of a cottage (gite), although farmhouses and town apartments are also available. Fully equipped and well maintained, taking a rental property as opposed to staying in an hotel will enable you to have all the comforts of home whilst on vacation.
If you would like to partake in outdoor activities whilst you are in Falaise, then never fear, there is plenty to do! Either in the town itself, or the surrounding area, there are any number of pursuits that can be followed, such as mountain biking, jogging, swimming, zip lining and dozens more. If golf is more your thing, then there are also courses nearby where you can get a game or two in, and if you are travelling with children, then you might be interested in one of the nearby zoos.
There are many things to see and do in the general vicinity of Falaise, but for many of them, it will be better if you have your own transport. Half an hour away, the fromageries at Camembert will be interesting to anyone with a passing interest in cheese, and even if you haven't, will make for a pleasant half day. The Normandy landing beaches are also worth visiting, as are some of the monuments scattered throughout the Normandy area commemorating the Second World War. Whilst in the Normandy area, you will certainly be stumbling across a lot of Norman castles and other such buildings. A visit to Bayeux, therefore, is also a must do in order to see the world famous tapestry.
The weather in Falaise is quite mild, with no extremes in cold, although that said, the best time of year to visit is during the summer months. Average highs of 22 degrees Celsius in both July and August, with night time average lows of 14 degrees mean that the weather is warm and pleasant as opposed to oppressively hot. During the coldest months in winter, it is a rare day that the temperatures should ever drop below freezing, although it can happen on the odd occasion. Rainfall does happen in this region though, with an annual figure at around 23 inches.
Some people from the United Kingdom may decide that they wish to use their own cars whilst on holidays in Falaise, and decide to drive over to France. With Caen being a major port, and quite close by, this can be an excellent way of reaching France. For others, flying is still the way to go. The closest airport to Falaise is Dinard (DNR) which offers affordable flights through Ryanair from London Stansted (STN) and East Midlands (EMA).

MARTINSVILLE, Va. (AP) -- Jimmie Johnson held off Kyle Busch on a restart with five laps to go Sunday and won for the seventh time in his career at Martinsville Speedway.
The five-time series champion moved into the lead in the championship standings, two points over Brad Keselowski with three races remaining.
Keselowski started 32nd, methodically worked his way forward, and took a late gamble to grab the lead on a restart with 19 laps to go. When Johnson and the rest of the leaders pitted for tires, Keselowski was a sitting duck once the race went back to green.
Johnson made the race a points bonanza, leading the most laps and earning three points for the victory.
Busch was second, followed by Kasey Kahne.

Vivian Davis is our oldest currently serving Volunteer, and she's turning 80 years young on Sunday, December 1!
The photo was taken in South Africa at a school where Peace Corps Volunteers and their counterparts had their permagarden training. People were encouraged to design plots in different shapes to get young people interested in gardening and to use as a teaching aid.
In this one in particular, a message about HIV/AIDS is communicated, that we need vegetables to feed HIV/AIDS infected and affected.

My husband, Ben, and I were Volunteers in the rural village of Mokuruanyane, South Africa from 2007-2009. I was a Community & HIV/AIDS Outreach Project Volunteer and Ben was an Education Volunteer.
My primary project was working with four women educators to develop Chrysalis Girls Club, an after-school girls empowerment program for the 75 7th grade girls in our village. In the 2008 school year, six weeks of our program were devoted to women's reproductive health, sex education, and HIV/AIDS awareness & prevention. The girls designed an HIV/AIDS mural, and Ben worked with five male students from the secondary school to sketch the mural onto the wall of Abbotspoort Higher Primary School.
While I worked with the women educators to provide HIV/AIDS education, Ben supervised the girls in painting the mural. Ben took this photo in November 2008, at the end of our first successful year of Chrysalis Girls Club. The mural faces the main road that runs through Mokuruanyane.

At my village's middle school, I started a girl's soccer team to get them active and show that they can play just like the boys. Family and friends from back home donated authentic balls and other equipment to outfit us.
Almost four months after its arrival, the Play Pump remains the most popular place to be. Not only children from the primary school, but parents and grandparents are often seen chatting at the spigot's end exchanging gossip while collecting water. After school there is – quite literally – standing room only. Lines form for a chance to hop on and a take a spin. Any able-bodied person cannot walk past without a throng of learners demanding a push.
Peace Corps Volunteer Andrew Hubble recently installed a 'Play Pump' water filtration system, which will serve as a reliable source of fresh drinking water for his South African community.

Happy National Library Week! Here are some highlights from our Digital Library featuring library projects from Volunteers around the world. You can also help fund current projects through the Peace Corps Partnership program.
We received 29 computers from a donor in Australia for the computer lab at one of our primary schools. Woody got a few of them set up in time to have an "impromptu" opening of the new computer lab after school just to allow the kids to check out the computers.
Unfortunately due to a wiring mismatch with the electrical sockets, we only had enough working outlets to be able to get two computers running. But, after letting a few kids into the lab to try out the computers, we soon realized that they were very excited to use the computers. We let them play typing tutor games and demonstrated to them where to hold their fingers on the keyboard.
For some of them, it was their first time even touching a computer.

November 10, 2013, 7:06 PM — Beamforming is one of those concepts that seem so simple that you wonder why no one thought of it before. Instead of broadcasting a signal to a wide area, hoping to reach your target, why not concentrate the signal and aim it directly at the target?
Sometimes the simplest concepts are the most difficult to execute, especially at retail price points. Fortunately, beamforming is finally becoming a common feature in 802.11ac Wi-Fi routers (at least at the high end). Here's how it works.
First, a bit of background: Beamforming was actually an optional feature of the older 802.11n standard, but the IEEE (the international body that establishes these standards) didn't spell out how exactly it was to be implemented. The router you bought might have used one technique, but if the Wi-Fi adapter in your laptop used a different implementation, beamforming wouldn't work.
Some vendors developed pre-paired 802.11n kits (with Netgear's WNHDB3004 Wireless Home Theater Kit being one of the best examples), but these tended to be expensive, and they never had much of an impact on the market.
The IEEE didn't make the same mistake with the 802.11ac standard that's in today's high-end devices. Companies building 802.11ac products don't have to implement beamforming, but if they do, they must do so in a prescribed fashion. This ensures that every company's products will work together. If one device (such as the router) supports beamforming, but the other (such as the Wi-Fi adapter in your router) doesn't, they'll still work together. They just won't take advantage of the technology.
Beamforming can help improve wireless bandwidth utilization, and it can increase a wireless network's range. This, in turn, can improve video streaming, voice quality, and other bandwidth- and latency-sensitive transmissions.
Beamforming is made possible by transmitters and receivers that use MIMO (multiple-input, multiple-output) technology: Data is sent and received using multiple antennas to increase throughput and range. MIMO was first introduced with the 802.11n standard, and it remains an important feature of the 802.11ac standard.
How beamforming works
Wireless routers (or access points) and wireless adapters that don't support beamforming broadcast data pretty much equally in all directions. For a mental picture, think of a lamp without a shade as the wireless router: The bulb (transmitter) radiates light (data) in all directions.

Coty Blanchard-" It is amazing. It is a great feeling. It is hard to describe today when I got that award. I was not really expecting to win when I got down there, because of the other people that were up for it. Those guys are great players as well. When they called my name out, I had to gather myself to make a speech. It was a wow moment. I got back of the year so I had to think of 2 speeches. It was a great day for me and my family."
You recently chose Jacksonsville State as your school. What was it about them that made you decide to attend school there?
Blanchard-" Because they have been there from the beginning. They have been there since anybody ever started recruiting me. I can play both baseball and football there. When they told me that, they sound sincere about it. I didn't get that feeling when other people told me that at other schools. I really trust the coaches at Jax St."
Have you sit back and thought about the last few months and what you have accomplished? Winning the state championship on a last minute drive and now winning Mr Football.
Blanchard-" I have never really sat down and thought about it. I am sure when I look back on it, I will be overwhelmed. Things are happening so fast and so good, I just don't think anything can top this year."
Two people that have been very influential in your life on and off the field are your coach Trip Curry and your Father Fran. Tell me about them and how they have gotten you to this point?
Blanchard-" Coach Curry has been there ever since I started playing in the 8th grade. Coach Curry pretty much put all his chips into me. I started a game my freshman year. Then my 10th grade year we went 5-5. He told me after that year, he has saw great things coming out of me and believed in me. The next two years we went 29-1. He has helped me so much during the recruiting process. He has kept me grounded and consisent.
My Dad is without a doubt the most influential person in my life. I didn't even start playing football until my 7th grade year. My Dad taught me how to throw a football, he taught me everything. For him to be a coach on our team this year and be on the sidelines meant so much to me. He would come to me before the games and let me pick the balls I liked and little things like that I appreciated. My Dad has always done whatever he could to help me."
After a tremendous high school career that came to end today, what can you do to top it on the next level?
Blanchard-" Win a national championship plain and simple. I want to win a OVC conf title and National Championship while at Jacksonville State."
One thing I have learned over the past 12 months meeting and scouting Coty Blanchard. Do not bet against him, the kid has " IT".

It's Madness!
Love this time of year! Snow is melting, the air is fresh, I can drive home with my windows cracked and…BASKETBALL! It really is one of my favorite holidays (I made it one…).
The annual filling out of the brackets is a joy for me each year. The tournament itself is some of the best entertainment on television. Cinderella teams going the distance, close games around every corner, hard fought battles in every contest…does it get any better?!?
I've filled out two brackets this year…one on ESPN and the other on CBS. They are a little different from each other (although not much…). I filled out the ESPN with my head, and the CBS one with my heart (although not my whole heart…if that were the case, you'd be seeing Green & White as the champions!). I've posted them below for your viewing pleasure (click on the images to see a larger version of the brackets).
I hope that you find the next several weekends as enjoyable as I do. Have fun celebrating march madness!

Facebook's bad year: The beginning of the end?
Summary: A look back at some of the major controversies to grip the world's largest social network over the past few months. Is Facebook teetering on the edge of collapse?
2 of 11Image
Facebook has had a terrible Fall, let alone full year. A number of high-profile controversies has caused the company to retreat and renege on a number of its decisions over the past few months, and ZDNet, CNET and CBS News has documented these failings in great detail.
But what has caused these major privacy fluff-ups, data retention issues or cookie-tracking problems? Is it all part of Facebook's ethos of taking on Google's "don't be evil" motto and somehow getting it oh-so-very wrong? Or is the social networking giant, close to 1 billion users, finally crippling itself under the weight of its own userbase? Is the company heading for secret global domination, and seeks to become the foremost hub for intelligence and information?
The cultural shift of Facebook's 2004 inception to its 2011 downfall days is clear. This gallery explores some of the worst controversies of this year, which threaten to bring the social networking giant to its proverbial knees.
- Facebook Porn and Gore Exploit Spiraling Out Of Control
- Congresswoman to probe Facebook over coordinated spam attack
- Between the Lines: SOPA: Why the 'broken web' should stay broken
- Facebook to make all sharing privacy settings 'opt-in'
- CIA monitors Facebook, Twitter: Five million tweets a day
- German state to sue Facebook over facial recognition feature
- European 'right-to-delete' law: How enforceable is Facebook?
Facebook was attacked by an exploit which perpetuated a wide array of out-of-control news stories on the News Feed, including violence, animal mutilation and in some cases, pseudo images of celebrities engaged in sexual activity.
ZDNet's Violet Blue broke the story, which explains the problem users' were having.
There was outrage by Facebook users, some for which threatened to leave the site altogether, either until it was gone or for good.
Facebook said that it had control of the situation after more than 24 hours of battling the exploit, some thought to be a virus or some kind of malware. The hacking collective Anonymous was blamed at first after seeking to 'destroy' the site on Guy Fawkes Day (November 5th). But Facebook said that it had identified 'who was behind' the attack.
Since then, the web erupted with anger, and even Congress wanted answers over Facebook's responsibility to its users.
Facebook and other social networks, along with businesses that operate within the confines of Europe, or have European users and customers 'must adhere' to European law, European Commissioner Viviane Reding said earlier this month.
While Facebook said that it was 'already compliant' with European law, particularly with the new 'right to delete' or 'right to be forgotten' feature of the new Directive, one had to wonder how compliant the social networking giant actually was, or currently is.
The European bureaucrats already have it in for Facebook after a number of high-level privacy battles and data protection matters. Since Facebook opened up a datacenter on European soil in Dublin, Ireland, it has been a target for more focused criticism over the past couple of years. Europe's 'mission' against Facebook will not go away, seeing as it was the same Commissioner who said that Facebook had "nowhere to hide" over its data protection policies.

After looking at five encouraging statistical figures yesterday, we'll take a look today at five discouraging stats that need to be addressed for the Cowboys to make a playoff push next season:
The defense gets into the act for the first time with this category. The Cowboys finished tied for last in the league with just seven interceptions.
The Cowboys' lack of interceptions has been well-documented, much more so than this number of passes defended. As stated with the previous category differential, the team finished tied for last in the league in interceptions. That wasn't from an inordinate amount of dropped interceptions. The defense simply didn't get to the ball in the air, also finishing last in the league in passes defended. Now, part of that can be attributed to the fact that teams weren't throwing as often on the Cowboys, who allowed 125.2 rushing yards per game. Opponents threw just 511 times against the Cowboys – 147 fewer attempts that
No matter who Dallas put back to return kicks, the likelihood of that return going for any kind of distance remained slim throughout the season.
This looks more like the average yards per game for a top receiver than what the stat really indicates. The Cowboys rushed for only 79.1 yards per game as a team, good for 31st in the NFL. OK, yes, the Cowboys also finished with the second-fewest rushing attempts per game, but the lack of runs isn't the only reason for the meager rushing attack week in and week out. The Cowboys also averaged just 3.6 yards per carry, tied for 30th in the league. The dreadful rushing attack is a primary reason the team might want to snag an offensive lineman in the first round. Undoubtedly, if
A quarterback who finished with the third most passes in the league must throw a ton of interceptions to end the season in the bottom half of the league in interception percentage rate. Romo tied Drew Brees for the most interceptions thrown this year, tossing a pick on 2.9 percent of his passes. It's not surprising to see the three quarterbacks who threw the most passes this year – Romo, Brees and Matt Stafford – all finish with at least 17 interceptions. All three of their respective teams either struggled to play defense, forcing them to pass to get back in the game, or struggled to run, forcing them to pass to move the ball. Romo's statistics dramatically improved after the early part of the season, but the team still needs to figure out a way to limit the turnovers if it wants to reach the playoffs and eliminate the mediocrity next season.

A steampunk oscilloscope built by Andrew Smith from parts found in a junk box. "Although not intended to be fully functional it does actually work." It's looks so cute... if you have the DIY skills you can read an article over on electronicsweekly detailing the build, components used and a schematic.
"I discovered that I had a really cute little 7cm CRT in the loft, together with several other valves of different types, and it seemed a good idea to make something decorative with them. For me, a lot of the charm of this piece resides in the unconventional layout and design, using a polished wooden box instead of the more usual metal chassis."

At the entrance of Riverside Park, there is a big rock monument with "Early Morgan Pioneers" engraved at the top. Under the engraving there is a list of some amazing people who have shaped Morgan County into what it is today.
Last week, I wrote about the beginning of the journey to trace the steps of pioneers, Pony Express riders and California gold rushers on the portion of Hastings Cutoff through Morgan County.

To get the full experience, it is best to follow the self-guided auto tour brochure put out by the Morgan Historical Society some three years ago.
Carla was born in Mesa, Arizona and her family moved so she went to different schools and colleges but she has spent considerable time in Utah over the years. Her husband, Gregory, was a school superintendent, and they moved a lot in that capacity. Greg is now the superintendent of a charter school in Kaysville after many years of serving in the public schools.
Neil Carrigan was born and raised in Morgan. He graduated from Morgan High School and earned a degree from Brigham Young after which he became a math teacher. He taught for seven years at Rich High School, a small rural school in Randolph that had only fifty students. He then moved to Morgan where he taught math and coached a variety of sports for thirty-two years.
Why did the US Congress have a problem in 1850? And why did the solution lead to the creation, 160 years ago this month, of a place called Utah?
During the settlement of the West, Morgan County was shielded from the initial onslaught of explorers and pioneers due to its unique geographic isolation.

When things happen in the public eye, like Seattle Seahawks' Richard Sherman's over enthusiastic post-game rant, we see the worst come out of people on Twitter. It is so easy for people to anonymously spew hate or criticize someone from behind the key board without looking them in the face.
It often over shadows the good that can come out of Twitter. There are a lot of fans who send their favorite athletes words of encouragement instead of criticism.
Seahawks running back questioned whether the media actually creates a bridge to the fans, and with Twitter fans can get direct access. The Jordan brand decided to use Twitter and the fans for a one of a kind and positive promotion. They took encouraging and positive tweets for Seahawks safety Earl Thomas and had them printed on athletic tape he will wear during the Super Bowl game, literally carrying the 12th man with him during ever play.
Hat tip to:
Nice idea by @Jumpman23: Take tweets of support to Earl Thomas, put tweets on athletic tape he'll wear tomorrow http://t.co/QC43RhBm6v
