Coal was first discovered in Alaska by an English trader in 1786. The deposit was located at Coal Cove, near Port Graham Bay on the Kenai Peninsula. The Russian-American Company began mining at this site almost 70 years later in 1855, 13 years before the territory was purchased by the United States.
From an 1889 Issue of the NY Times:
"The past two years' explorations in the supposed coal fields of Western Alaska have demonstrated that the Territory presents a new and inexhaustible source of wealth in its coal fields. There is every indication that the coal can be easily mined. This is the unvarying statement of every person who has had the means of personal observation... The supply seems illimitable, the consumption will rapidly increase, and the business of its transportation to California, Oregon, and Washington will become enormous..."
By the early 1900s, there were a number of small coal mines throughout the state that together produced about 3000 tons of coal per year. This coal came from mines on Admiralty Island in SE Alaska, Unga Island south of the Alaska Peninsula, Corwin Bluffs, the Cape Beaufort area on the Arctic coast, the Chignik River on the Alaska Peninsula, the Seward Peninsula, the Chickaloon area, and several mines in the Homer area.
However, these local mines provided a mere three percent of the coal consumed in the state.
Until WWI, the majority of Alaska coal was used by nearby steamships, railroads, and canneries. During WWI the US Navy began to use and subsidize more coal mined in Alaska, and by 1920 Alaska mines provided nearly 40% of the coal used in the state. Production continued to increase after WWI and the early 1920's saw the opening of the Evan Jones Coal Mine and the large Suntrana mine in the Nenana coal field near Healy. In 1943, strip mining began to displace underground mining and in 1944 the first Usibelli Coal Mine Inc. strip mine was opened. By the end of WWII Alaska had begun to export some of its coal.
Alaska has a rich coal resourceGET PHOTO
During the 1960's the discovery of large gas and oil fields in Alaska precipitated the conversion of most coal infrastructure to other fossil fuels. During this period Usibelli Coal Mine purchased the Suntrana mine and the mining operations in the Matanuska coal fields ceased operation. Since 1971, Usibelli Coal Mine has been the only significant operating coal mine in Alaska. In 1984 a deep water port and coal loading facility was constructed in Seward for the export of Usibelli coal to South Korea and in anticipation of increased coal production in Alaska.
"Alaska's 1985 coal production set a new all-time record at nearly 1.4 million short tons. The International Energy Agency in 1985 projected that Alaska's total coal production in the year 2000 will be over 28 million short tons. Indeed, Alaska promises to be an important coal mining and export center of the 21st century."
(Alaska Division of Geological and Geophysical Surveys, 1986, see Further Reading)
However Usibelli Coal Mine Inc. produced only about 1.8 million tons of coal in 2009, almost half of which is exported to Asia and South America.
There has been a lot of recent interest in larger-scale mining of Alaska's coal. A number of proposals for coal mines and coal-fired power plants in the last few decades have failed for economic reasons, including the Kenai Blue Sky proposal, the Chickaloon proposal, the Matanuska proposal, and the Bethel Power Plant proposal. There is currently active interest in developing coal in Cook Inlet, both a traditional mine near the Chuitna River and an underground coal gasification project on the west side of the inlet.

Plot Summary: If it weren't for a series of cataclysmic events; a comet impact being first on the list, our planet could well still be the domain of dinosaurs.
Dinosaurs fascinate us so much, that many people wish they were amongst us. Fortunately, the large format "Dinosaurs 3D" will be the closest thing to actually being in the presence of the extraordinary creatures without looking into our own extinction at the same time.
Following Pr Rodolfo Coria, a world-reknown Argentinian paleontologist, we visit sites of major discoveries he has contributed to in Patagonia and travel back in time to see these amazing beasts come to life. Patagonia has given us the largest living animal to have ever walked the Earth: the titanesque plant-eating Argentinosaur, and its nemesis, the Giganotosaur, a bipedal carnivore, that could easily challenge the famous T-Rex.
Deeply rooted in science, the film carries the audience through the lives of two specimens of these superb achievements of evolution. The action is intense and the landscape is out of this world. At times, the camera takes us into space to witness the movement of the tectonic plates or the arrival of a comet that will seal the fate of the Dinosaurs.
As the movie leaves our Patagonian giants behind to jump forward to the end of this extreme chapter of Earth's history, we learn through science that although most species of their evolutionary branch have disappeared, the Dinosaurs are still with us today. You can see them easily. They sometimes perch on wires in your back yard. You've even probably eaten quite a few of them. They are birds.

For readers of Laura Hillenbrand's Seabiscuit and Unbroken, the dramatic story of the American rowing team that stunned the world at Hitler's 1936 Berlin Olympics.
Daniel James Brown's robust book tells the story of the University of Washington's 1936 eight-oar crew and their epic quest for an Olympic gold medal, a team that transformed the sport and grabbed the attention of millions of Americans. The sons of loggers, shipyard workers, and farmers, the boys defeated elite rivals first from eastern and British universities and finally the German crew rowing for Adolf Hitler in the Olympic games in Berlin, 1936.
The emotional heart of the story lies with one rower, Joe Rantz, a teenager without family or prospects, who rows not for glory, but to regain his shattered self-regard and to find a place he can call home. The crew is assembled by an enigmatic coach and mentored by a visionary, eccentric British boat builder, but it is their trust in each other that makes them a victorious team. They remind the country of what can be done when everyone quite literally pulls together - a perfect melding of commitment, determination, and optimism.
Drawing on the boys' own diaries and journals, their photos and memories of a once-in-a-lifetime shared dream, The Boys in the Boat is an irresistible story about beating the odds and finding hope in the most desperate of times - the improbable, intimate story of nine working-class boys from the American west who, in the depths of the Great Depression, showed the world what true grit really meant. It will appeal to readers of Erik Larson, Timothy Egan, James Bradley, and David Halberstam's The Amateurs.

"A Homerun!"
The most beautifully written story I've read in many years. Edward Hermann was the perfect storyteller. I would have to say it is among the top five listens in nearly 100 books listened to.
Yes. They all have been great!
Not a good film story!
I hated it to end.
"Knock-out Good Story"
This is a really good story, exceptionally well read. It never would have occurred to me to select this book, but a friend recommended it. I'm very glad she did.
"Read This Book!"
Yes. The book had so many good ideas and feelings, it was hard to remember them all.
Joe Rantz
Yes, this was a perfect match for Herrmann's voice.
Adversity and sweat, build tough, good men.
This and unbroken have been two of my favorite listens.
A page turner, this true story is by turns fascinating, heartbreaking, redemptive. I cheered for Joe Rantz every hour of my listen. You will not regret buying this book. The
writing is genius. The narration is superb. The story is unforgettable. Best book I have bought ever (next to Seabiscuit and Unbroken).
"Absolutely LOVED this book!"
This is probably my very favorite book that I have read in the past few years. It was an amazing story.
Use a credit NOW and purchase this book. You will not be disappointed by one minute of this audiobook.
I have been reading since before I started school. I am not sitting in front of a book someone is reading it to me!
"Wonderfully written"
I so enjoyed this book. The story the scene and then triumph over adversity, sometimes raises the hair on your neck and at others brings tears to your eyes. I rank this among my top 100 books of all time. I am going to be reading this over and over and over again.
The narration is exemplary. Get this book and keep reading till you can't read anymore. You will love this book.
"Wonderful, but wish the narrator did his homework."
Please understand, I think Edward Herrmann has a melodic, compelling voice. His delivery is great... when he's not mispronouncing Pacific NW names. Having grown up in Seattle, I can understand the difficulty, there are some unusual ones. But I cringed every time he said Post Intelli- GEN-cer, and Boh-Marche. Several place names of American Indian origin were also mangled. Surely SOMEONE could have helped with these and made an excellent book, perfect.
"Best Book I have listened too."
This book could be about playing anything and it would still be just as good. The authors's narrative's are awesome.
If you like Unbroken or Seabiscuit you will love this book just as much or more. In fact they are all related and referenced.
"How can a sports book be this good??!?!?"
Yes - it was suspenseful and fascinating.
I almost cried when Joe found his way back into the varsity boat and his team members welcomed him back. Beautiful scene.
What a story.
"Fascinating story"
This is a near perfect book. The story is gripping and the reader is perfect for it. I loved it!

'Think Like A Man' Sequel Gets Release DateApril 12, 2013 // 0 Comments
by Mariah Craddick
If you were one of the people who helped Think Like A Man gross over $91 million during its run in theaters, then get excited.
The movie's sequel, which will be called Think Like A Man Too, is set to hit the big screen May 30, 2014, according to Shadow and Act. While the film based off of Steve Harvey's best-selling relationship book will be produced by the same producer (Will Packer) and written by the same writers (Keith Merryman and David A. Newman), it has yet to be seen whether the entire cast will return.
Think Like A Man Too is supposedly shooting before the end of this year so we will find out soon enough.

Delusions require that you ignore the other verses, including verse in the same book.<quoted text>
You can find 20 maybe 25 verses of scripture saying God is Light.
Of course you knew that right, you know your Bible.
When we are ignorant to scripture we see contradiction
But your reading, when your god was referring to "light" in Genesis, god was referring to himself. OK, lets see?
"So God made the two larger lights, the sun to rule over the day and the moon to rule over the night; he also made the stars."
Are the sun, moon and stars other gods maybe? They are by your definition.
More that you ignore...
Again, somebody needs to tell tell your god that the Sun IS a star, and that the moon is not a light, but simply reflecting the light from the sun.

HI, Lynn,
I am one of the cousins researching the Keisters. (My specialty, if you will, is Jacob "Uncle Jake" Keister.) Eli was my great-grandfather's uncle. I have never found any evidence to suggest that Eli was married to anyone named Mary Whittaker. She might have married one of his sons or nephews or something, but that is just a wild guess. Eli was married to Nancy Thomas in Orange County, VA (I went to Orange County and read through the marriage records a couple of years ago, but neglected to get a copy) before he moved to Saline County, MO and he died before Cordelia was born. I have often wondered exactly who she is and what her connection actually might be to the family. I believe that Eli's youngest son, Edward, is the Edward Keaster of Ft. Benton, Montana based on a power of attorney made to Henry Stone, a Keister cousin who apparently handled legal transactions in Saline County for several of the family. There is no mention of Cordelia in those documents nor in Jacob's will (he left only a small amount of money to Eli's children and does not name them as with others of the family). I knew there was an Edward Keister in Montana based on the records in Saline County, and some land records I found on-line, but Dawn gave me more particulars on him and his family.
This tells you nothing about Cordelia. I would start with the name Mary Whittaker and see if she is listed in the land or marriage records of Saline County, or in Eli's probate estate (he did not leave a will that I can ascertain, although the probate records have plenty of information).
Can you tell me how you are connected with the Keisters?

Founding shareholder in Ugandan power firm Umeme to sell down stake
NAIROBI May 8 (Reuters) - The main shareholder in Uganda's sole power distributor, Umeme Ltd, said on Thursday it planned to sell 45.1 percent out of the 60.08 percent stake it owns in the utility through a private placement.
Umeme Holdings, a subsidiary of London-based private equity firm Actis, said in a statement in Kenya's Daily Nation newspaper that it anticipated the sale will have no effect on the management or board of the utility or its finances.
"A seamless transaction would allow the original founding shareholder of Umeme to reduce its shareholding through secondary sales to investors on the Ugandan and Kenyan markets," Umeme Holdings said.
"The decision by the company to reduce its investment and bring in new investors by private treaty is guided by the need to ensure that the bulk of the shares to be sold are placed with institutional investors..."
Umeme's shares were suspended on Tuesday from trade on the Kenyan and Ugandan bourses pending the sale. Umeme Holdings said the suspension will be lifted on Friday. Umeme's shares closed at 360 shillings ($0.14) on Monday.
The company reported an 89 percent rise in pretax profits last year, to 115.2 billion Ugandan shillings. ($1=2517 Ugandan shillings) (Reporting by George Obulutsa; Editing by Greg Mahlich)

"Digital DNA" Plan To Thwart SAT Cheating Wouldn't Actually Collect Students' Genetic Material
Last night, New York's CBS 2 aired a report about a proposed plan to make the SAT and ACT exams imposter-proof using "digital DNA." Today, the company behind the scheme, Applied DNA Sciences, will present its technology to legislators in New York state. Presumably, Applied DNA Sciences hopes the state will invest in its system in hopes of thwarting enterprising students hoping to copy the Long Island teenager who allegedly made thousands of dollars taking the SAT for at least 15 of his classmates.
The TV segment and accompanying article on this "digital DNA" have riled some civil libertarians worried about any plan to collect students' genetic information; for instance, Anonymous tweeted to its more than 400,000 followers, "Hello 1984!" Others are riled up by the idea that the SATs would receive biometric security measures, while voting would not.
One problem with the backlash: There's no human DNA in the proposed "digital DNA system." Rather, students would be issued ID cards that contain plant DNA, which is what Applied DNA Sciences claims makes them counterfeit-proof. This important point isn't at all clear in CBS 2's confusing Web article or segment. (In a demonstration of their unfamiliarity with this technology, the site stylized a reference to the cloud as "the 'CLOUD.' ") Furthermore, CBS 2 doesn't mention that the scientist interviewed for the report is the CEO of Applied DNA Sciences and therefore has a financial interest in the technology.
This is how people end up fearing new technologies.

|Theologian and author Stanley Horton dies at 98
|Monday, 14 July 2014 09:46 AM EDT
Stanley Monroe Horton, 98, of Springfield, Missouri, died Saturday, July 12, at Maranatha Village in Springfield.
Son of Harry Samuel Horton and Myrle May Fisher, Horton was born May 6, 1916, in Huntington Park, California. His maternal grandparents, Elmer Kirk Fisher and Clara Daisy Sanford, participated in the historic Azusa Street Revival of 1906, leading the nearby Upper Room Mission. In the words of Assemblies of God General Superintendent George O. Wood, Horton has served as a "bridge linking the Azusa revival to the present day."
A graduate of multiple universities, including Harvard, Horton was distinguished professor emeritus of Bible and theology at the Assemblies of God Theological Seminary (AGTS), where he taught from 1978 to 1991. Prior to that, he served as chair of the Bible Department at Central Bible College from 1948 to 1978 and professor at Metropolitan Bible Institute from 1945 to 1948. In 1980, he served as president of the Society for Pentecostal Studies. Upon his retirement from teaching in 1991, he held the position of general editor of the Pentecostal Textbook Series/Logion Press in Springfield until 2000. He was listed in Who's Who in Religion and Outstanding Educators of America.
He served as chair of the editorial committee for The Full Life Study Bible and its 2003 revision titled Life in the Spirit Study Bible, often referred to as The Fire Bible. Dr. Horton also served as the official translator of 1 and 2 Corinthians from Koine Greek to modern Messianic Jewish vernacular for the Tree of Life Bible, a project completed in cooperation with the Messianic Family Bible Project and now the official Bible of The King's University.
Horton wrote dozens of books, including the acclaimed What the Bible Says About the Holy Spirit (Gospel Publishing House), and the Assemblies of God Adult Teacher Sunday school curriculum for over 25 years.
In 2009, Gospel Publishing House released a biography of his life, Stanley M. Horton: Shaper of Pentecostal Theology. As an addendum to the biography, a full bibliography of works by and about him, and video interviews with him are available at the Flower Pentecostal Heritage Center website (click here to view: http://s2.ag.org/hortonbib).
Horton was predeceased by his parents, his wife, Evelyn Gertrude Parsons, and siblings. He is survived by two sisters; two sons and a daughter; three grandchildren; and six great-grandchildren.
Donations may be made to The Dr. Stanley M. Horton Scholarly Resources Endowment (http://agts.edu/more/horton/) by calling AGTS at 417-268-1000. The funeral will be held July 19 in the Evangel University chapel in Springfield.

No statute of limitation on grief or lossPosted: May 8, 2012
51 years ago she went for a walk with friends.
51 years ago she never came back.
Despite a massive manhunt, no trace of Brenda Byman was ever found. This year, she would have been 63.
For her family, her mother, her brother and sisters, it is as clear as yesterday. Her father died wondering.
Yet some tell them to give up. Sneer when they still search for answers. Deride them for wanting to know.
Is there a statute of limitations on grief?
I don't think so. Nor should there be.
If it were your daughter, your sister, YOURS… would you rest easy never knowing? Would you just forget? Give up? That is what the Byman family has been told to do.
I say no.
I lost my daughter. She was two months old. She never had a chance at life. And yes, I grieve her still. But at least I have the blessing of knowing what happened to her. There is no question in my mind we did all we could. There is no question what happened. And there is no question she is at peace. I lost my daughter. But I have closure.
The Byman family does not.
I say there is no statute of limitation on grief or loss. When I see a member of the family, I neither roll nor avert my eyes. I do not sigh or look away if they mention her name.
And I never will. I am a journalist. I am honoured they have asked me to write about the reopening of Brenda's cold case. I will do everything I can to help.
And anyone who does not like it can come and talk to me face to face.
If you have the courage. If you have the balls. I fucking dare you.

On behalf of the Byman family, thank you Jan for your comments. All we want and I feel deserve is the truth, her remains so we can give her a proper burial for closure and for justice to be served as it failed us way back when. We are very grateful for people who care enough to remember her and help us in anyway that they can. Thank you Stephanie for your story and thank you to the RCMP member who opened up Brenda's cold case file. Please, if you know anything in regards to my Auntie Brenda who I never got to meet, contact the Invermere RCMP. PLEASEMisty Agnew June 9, 2012 at 12:58 pm
Losing a child is without a doubt the most heartwrenching, unbarable, pain a parent can endure. It is not like losing a Grandmother, Grandfather or an uncle or aunt. Of course all of these losses are devastating at the time.But as time passes the pain lessens and life does go on.Losing a child on the other hand is with you always.The tears never stop.The pain in your chest comes and goes( for a time) .When it comes it hurts so much it can double you over and cause great dificulty breathing. When you finally get your breath regulated, the tears start again. This happenes anywhere, at any time, with no warning. Days are often as black as the hole left in your heart. Sometimes days have a little color which brings a little hope, but a sure as I am typing this , someone will come along and rip the scab off (not intentionally of course) and the hole will once again be gaping and bleeding.Those are the days I sit and hold my chest tight,because the pain is too great to bare.
Not many people know the whole story behind my son's life and death.Maybe if they did the wouldn't judge.
But this is about another family in great pain. I truly believe that someone knows something.If Brenda is 63 yrs. old then that puts you around the same age. Please, please contact this family, by email, or anonamous letter, They have lived a lifetime of pain. Tell them where to find the sweet daughter,Give them peace, after all these years, please let them bring their daughter home to rest. Don't go to your grave with this secret.Janiene Desrosier May 31, 2012 at 10:05 pm
This is not exactly face to face, but I would like to say that I appreciate your comments on their behalf.sherri watson May 8, 2012 at 11:26 am

U.S. farmland market cooling entering key auction season
Bankers and economists watch farm land prices closely. Land represents 85 percent of farmer assets - and loan collateral.
Federal Reserve banker surveys for the quarter ended in June cited lower rates of gain in land prices. At the same time, bankers cautioned farmers against chasing price dips with borrowed money, dreading another 1980s farm debt crash.
"The difference with the 1980s is that 75 percent of land then had mortgages. Today, 25 percent does," said Jeff Obrecht, an Iowa-based real estate broker with Farmers National. "That makes a big difference. We just don't have the debt out there that we had. Part of that is lenders are requiring more. If you buy at $10,000 acre, you're going to have to put $5,000 down."
Auctioneers said that, in recent weeks, more 'no sales' have been reported at Midwest auctions as buyers think through revenue, cash and borrowing fundamentals.
"When I sold a piece a property two years ago for $14,600 we got there in less than 5 minutes," said Bruce Huber of Hickory Point Bank in Decatur, Illinois. "Some of these auctions are taking longer, fewer bidders. You can just tell the enthusiasm for the higher prices seems to be wanting yet the prices are still there."
So as land auctions pick up starting in October, auctioneers are expecting some price resilience.
"Farmers buy about 70 percent of the farms in the Midwest," said Hertz. "They've got cash, there are record amounts of cash. That cash at a bank or short-term deposits doesn't pay much - essentially, less than 1 percent. Compare that to a farm that can earn 3-4-5 percent."

Damian Dovarganes, AP
Stephen Trachtenberg, the former president of George Washington University, increased tuition from $25,000 to $51,000 during his tenure, according to The Atlantic.
Trachtenberg proudly claims responsibility for a business model that caused a dramatic increase in college tuition prices nationwide.
Raising tuition prices not only increased university revenue but sparked a perception war with universities nationwide.
"People equate price with the value of their education," Trachtenberg told The Atlantic.
To provide an illusion of superior quality, Trachtenberg spent some of the excess tuition revenues on needless amenities like ice cream socials and $2,500 per minute laser shows. He also made sure the campus was constantly under construction.
Other universities soon noticed and adopted Trachtenberg's model.
Private universities spent more on noneducational assets than research, academic support and instruction between 1988 and 2008.
While the average American student graduates with $24,300 in debt, half are either unemployed or underemployed.

Kukla's Korner Hockey
Beach Ready To Move On

from Scott Burnside of ESPN,
We watched pretty closely and we're almost positive that when Kyle Beach walked up to the podium shortly before 9 p.m. and pulled on a Chicago Blackhawks jersey, there were no horns sticking out of his head. Neither was there a pointy tail dragging behind him.
Not that you wouldn't have fully expected to see either the way the 18-year-old from Kelowna, British Columbia, has been demonized in the weeks leading up to the draft. In an interview a few hours before he became the 11th overall selection in the 2008 draft, Beach admitted that in all of the 28 interviews he had, teams were much more interested in his head space than his foot speed.

This week marks the 69th anniversary of the dropping of atomic bombs by the United States on Hiroshima and Nagasaki (August 6 and 9).
Can prayer bring an end to conflict? Can it stop the slaughter and mayhem in Gaza or Ukraine played out – rather voyeuristically - on our TV screens everyday? Do the people caught up in the violence and killing listen to the appeals of religious leaders for prayer?
One hundred years ago on Monday, Britain declared war on Germany and the First World War commenced. A generation was laid waste. Yet, The Tablet reporting of the lead-up to the declaration – operating, of course, without the benefit of hindsight – was unable to anticipate the war's global consequences.
This week Muslims around the world have been marking Eid al-Fitr, the post-Ramadan celebration; the time for showing gratitude to God for giving us the fast, with its physical and spiritual benefits.
The idea of bankers' swearing a financial version of the Hippocratic Oath first surfaced in 2009 and I wrote about it in The Tablet a year later when the Future of Banking commission recommended a medical model of ethics for financial services.
Reviewing for The Tablet can be a dangerous business. The danger rises exponentially if you happen to be reviewing in the 1950s and fall foul of the famously caustic contributor, Evelyn Waugh.
The Christian community in Mosul, northern Iraq, one of the oldest in the world, has fled the city en masse. After the Islamic State (IS) issued an ultimatum giving them until noon on 19 July to convert to Islam, pay a tax, leave, or be killed, many fled the city and chose the uncertainty and hand-to-mouth existence of being displaced.
It is ten years since the Church began reporting annually on allegations of abuse received by the Catholic Church in England and Wales and on standards of safeguarding.
There are an awful lot of Aunt Sally arguments going around aimed at discrediting the case against euthanasia and assisted suicide.
The conviction on 5 July of two former commanders in Argentina's military dictatorship for the 1976 murder of Enrique Angelelli, bishop of La Rioja, marks another step towards clarifying the history of the dictatorship, and in particular the relations between the military regime and the Catholic Church.

McLaren expects tyre struggles at Canada
As at Monaco a fortnight ago, this afternoon's qualifying session was a tale of contrasting fortunes for McLaren. Jenson Button managed 9th while an unlucky Kevin Magnussen didn't get through to Q3 and qualified 12th. After an unpromising FP3 session, the team made further set-up changes to fine-tune the balance for qualifying. The improvements worked, and both drivers looked set to qualify inside the top 10. Jenson chipped away at his laptime in all three qualifying sessions – his final time in Q3 looked strong enough for eighth, but he was knocked back to ninth by a driver setting a time just two hundredths of a second faster. It was something of a mixed blessing, though, as Jenson...

WORLDS FASTEST street legal ELECTRIC CAR
Learn about EV technology: http://www.electric-vehiclenews.com/
Worlds fastest street legal ELECTRIC CAR 1972 Datsun 1200 Whtie Zombie.
This car is based in Oregon... there are something like 18 hydro electric
power plants in that state! Hydro generation accounts for 58% of all
electricity in Oregon (Over 70% in Washington) and coal accounts for less
than 7%.
Only about 15% of the energy from the fuel you put in your tank gets used
to move your car down the road or run useful accessories, such as air
conditioning. The rest of the energy is lost to engine and driveline
inefficiencies and idling. Therefore, the potential to improve fuel
efficiency with advanced technologies is enormous. With an Electric Car it
costs just $1.00 per 100kms with MUCH more performance than with petrol at
$20.00 per 100kms.
EVs use between 1/6th and 1/10th the energy of a comparable ICE powered

Ninja Electric Motorcycle Conversion

The Shocking Truth About Electric Motorcycles - /RideApart
With 9kWh in its battery pack, nearly twice the capacity of the Toyota
Prius, the 2012 Zero DS is the fastest, longest-range electric motorcycle
to ever enter production. 84mph top speed, 112-mile range. Is that enough
to make it practical, useful transportation? More importantly, can a bike
that slow be fun to ride? For more about electric motorcycles, check out
Quitgas! Clean, Quiet, Fun, Electric Motorcycle
Update February 2009
Well, I am happy with this project except for one issue in order to
service batteries and experiment with the bike, clear access to the
batteries and electronics is needed. Unfortunately, removing the Ninja
bodywork for this access requires removing the mirrors, front blinkers and
windscreen, making the bike unsafe probably illegal to ride. The solution
is some type of one-piece body that is easily removed and does not support
the mirrors and blinkers. So back into the garage it goes! So far Ive
tried several ideas for the bodywork all have been unsuccessful (or really
ugly!). My goal is to be back on the road by Summer 09 with the new
bodywork and updated batteries. Will update the video when completed! See
ya then!
Note: if youre really interested in this bike, be sure to read through
(all) the comments for a lot of information!
Backyard project to create a form of local transportation WITHOUT burning
gasoline. Since I work within 5 miles of my home and do a lot of local
running around, the idea was to leave the car at home and commute with
clean, quiet electric power as much as possible.
Have been on the road only a few weeks -- still in the testing/adjusting
phase, but so far it looks like this:
Bike has a lot (too much) low end torque so it is pretty quick from a
standing start. However, the top speed right now is about 45mph. Since I
started with a low 6:1 gear ratio, I have plenty of room to change gearing
for more top speed -- however, since I use this locally (mostly on 35mph
city streets), I don't really need much more speed. Also, I chose the
Alltrax controller because it comes with free software so I can plug my
laptop into the bike and adjust motor power, throttle curve, etc.
I'm currently using four 12 volt batteries for a 48 volt bike. Since this
was an "experiment" and my first EV, I used the cheapest batteries I could
find (Wal-Mart 85 ah Marine batteries at about $45 each). They are,
however, working out well for now.
Plugs in to any standard 120 volt household outlet and takes about 6 hours
to charge (not really sure since I plug it in at night and it's ready in
the morning). The math says the range would be about 30 miles on a charge,
but it's looking like much less than that right now. Again, actual numbers
coming as soon as I complete testing and adjusting.
Total cost to build is about $2,800 which includes the cost of the original
bike, the (all-new) motor and electronics, new tires, etc. Cost to run
(electricity) should be about 2 cents per mile.
Some Details :
D&D SepEx Motor (about 45 ft-pd torque at 2000rpm)
400 Amp Alltrax Controller with PC link
Four 12 volt deep cycle marine batteries (Wal-Mart)
Four on-board battery chargers
More details coming soon. . . . . .

The winner of the Samuel Johnson book prize, Wade Davis's Into the Silence, tackles the mystery of George Mallory's disappearance on his Everest expedition. Since members of the Alpine Club had also fought in the First World War, the human endurance and sacrifice in this book is ramped up even further.
During the 1924 expedition one climber (Norton) lost his sight and was saved by another ( Somervell) who led him across ice-covered slabs. Somervell then found himself unable to breathe. He punched his chest to remove the obstruction, and coughed up the entire lining of his throat. You get the picture. In the phrase of one of the survivors, "the price of life is death".
The heroism is so thrilling it is hard to contemplate any other subject worthy of biography. When I was a judge of the Samuel Johnson prize a few years ago we voted in Philip Hoare's book Leviathan, about whales. Of course they are magnificent creatures but they lack the human spirit. We do not know what they think of death.
The "sad little party" that came back down Everest accepted the loss of comrades "in that rational spirit which all our generation had learned in the Great War and there was never any tendency to a morbid harping on the irrevocable".
What I cannot fathom is whether these adventurers were made of different stuff from the rest of us or if they were a product of their age, and we of ours. The discrepancy of values is comically expressed in an email, published in the Daily Mail, from a retired naval captain to his errant children. He is scathing about their broken marriages and apparent lack of ambition. The siblings, who all seem rather nice, thought this a low blow. Yet they defended themselves on their father's terms by saying whatever their troubles, none was claiming money from the state.
The quarrel is described as familial but it is also generational. The email could as easily have come, say, from Prince Philip to his children. It will always be difficult for the war generations to understand the selfishness and frivolity of those who lived afterwards. Some of the characters in Into the Silence kept diaries during the First World War, and the attempt to reconcile hell with normality is moving. Arthur Wakefield, tending hundreds of casualties a day at his clearing station, ended each diary entry with a weather report. "The big Strafe began last night. We couldn't hear much, but could see the flashes of the guns in the sky almost continuously. Wind W, light. Fine except for a few light showers."
These days we value empathy and kindness more than duty, sacrifice and emotional understatement perhaps because these virtues suit our world better. Once you become unfamiliar with death, you are a lot pickier about life. The world of Mallory is exceedingly strange now, but that does not mean we should forget it.
Just the man to unscramble ministers' message
In favour of David Cameron's new election strategist, Lynton Crosby, he is not opaque in expression, whereas the Government can be curiously garbled about what it is doing. The former health secretary, Andrew Lansley, could never explain the point of NHS reform. His successor Jeremy Hunt plays safe by saying as little as possible.
The other day I met the charismatic Victor Adebowale, who advises the Government on mental health. He explained that the organisation of healthcare was no longer compatible with the way we live. We are far too attached to hospitals, which are an expensive and inefficient way of treating people. Instead, we need walk-in health centres with a range of specialisms, from dentistry to strokes, which are responsive to local communities and populations.
Mental health must be integrated into these centres, since a large percentage of people who visit MPs are depressed or anxious rather than physically ill. When I protested that GPs did not want to be part of these centres, or handle budgets, he frowned and asked why doctors shouldn't see themselves as small businesses.
Lord Adebowale's exposition of modern healthcare was so free from jargon and so brimming with common sense and sympathy I couldn't understand why he wasn't the public face of health reform. Maybe Lynton Crosby could suggest this.
The lure of single-sex Shakespeare
At first, the staging of an all male cast of Twelfth Night struck me as wilful. I know Mark Rylance
re-creates authentic Shakespeare at the Globe theatre but there are few enough parts for women on stage without extinguishing the good ones. Having seen Rebecca Hall's touching performance as Viola, in her father's production at the National Theatre, I was sceptical and a little bit grumpy about the new Rylance Twelfth Night in the West End.
I was proved wholly wrong. The use of men to play women adds a new dimension to female psychology. Rylance not only plays the role of Olivia, but he also observes and thus accentuates her contrariness. As for Viola and Sebastian, the confusion of gender becomes even more head-spinning and there is additional homoeroticism.
I keenly await the all-female cast of Julius Caesar at the Donmar Warehouse to see what extra light this can throw on men as well as women.
Bringing out David and Victoria's inner Tories
The modern courtship of Victoria Coren and David Mitchell should warm the chilliest heart. She sassy and fearless — a comedian and a poker player. He a pedant and a satirist. United by their professional socialism. Yet their wedding was as conventional as any Sloane — Victoria radiant in a meringue, David looking post-Bullingdon. This delightful romcom only shows that marriage can make Tories of us all.

Mizrahi Jew, settler among Supreme Court appointees
Noam Sohlberg.
(photo credit:Courts Administration)
The four new Supreme Court justices appointed on Friday include an Iraqi-born
Mizrahi Jew, a West Bank settler and a female member of the Tel Aviv University
law faculty.Jerusalem District Court Judge Noam Sohlberg, a resident of
the Gush Etzion settlement of Alon Shvut, was born in 1962 and grew up in Haifa,
where he attended a yeshiva. He later joined the air force and finished his
service with the rank of major.RELATED:Four new judges appointed to High Court 'Bills limiting settlers, Arabs as justices valid' Sohlberg finished his law studies at the
Hebrew University of Jerusalem in 1990.He spent the next seven years
working for three judges and attorneys-general, and also served as a lecturer at
the Bar-Ilan University Law School.Yair Wolf, head of the Gush Etzion
local council, said of Sohlberg's appointment that "in a time of polarization
among the people, there is no doubt that Sohlberg speaks to the heterogeneity
that is of the utmost importance to the Supreme Court."Wolf added that
he believes Sohlberg will bring much-needed "balance" to the court's rulings as a
resident of Gush Etzion.On Friday, Israeli-Arab MK Ahmed Tibi (United
Arab List-Ta'al) called Sohlberg's appointment "a dark day for justice and
equality" and added that "even a settler who is a judge is still a settler,
living off land stolen from Palestinians."Tel Aviv District Court Judge
Uri Shoham was born in Iraq in 1948 and immigrated to Israel with his family in
1951. Shoham studied at the Daled High School in Tel Aviv before joining the
IDF, where he served for more than three decades in the military prosecutor's
office, eventually retiring from the army in 2001 as a brigadier-general. After
leaving the army, he was appointed as a judge at the Tel Aviv District
Court.The appointment of a Mizrahi or Sephardi judge to the Supreme
Court has been a hot-button topic in Israel, where the court is widely viewed as
a bastion of the Ashkenazi elite.Judge Daphne Barak-Erez was born in the
United States in 1965 and grew up in the Tel Aviv suburb of Ramat Efal. She
currently is the Stewart and Judy Colton professor of law and the Dean of the
Faculty of Law at Tel Aviv University.

Uniondale, NY (SportsNetwork.com) - Frans Nielsen's third-period hat trick helped the New York Islanders to a 7-5 win over the Dallas Stars on Saturday.
With the game tied at 4-4 after two periods, Nielsen started his surge as he finished a 2-on-1 rush with a goal at the 9:39 mark. He then received a pass from Mikhail Grabovski on another 2-on-1 break and wristed the puck past Anders Lindback for a 6-4 lead 5 1/2 minutes later.
Shawn Horcoff cut the deficit in half when he beat Chad Johnson only 23 seconds after Nielsen's second tally, but the native of Denmark capped the night on an empty netter with one-tenth of a second left.
Anders Lee, Nikolay Kulemin, Brock Nelson and Lubomir Visnovsky each added a goal for New York, which has won two straight on the heels of a two-game skid.
Johnson made 26 saves in the win for the Metropolitan Division leaders.
"You get the two points however you win...but you can't rely on scoring (seven) goals," Johnson said. "I want to be better and make some more saves."
Lee got things going 5:11 into the first when he tipped in Thomas Hickey's shot from the left circle.
Vernon Fiddler knotted the score later in the period after he threw one on net that squeaked through Johnson's pads.
Kulemin gave the Islanders another lead late in the first, and Nelson added to it with a wrist shot as Lindback couldn't control the original shot by Ryan Strome 1:25 into the second for a 3-1 New York lead.
Lindback stopped 22 shots for Dallas, which had its two-game winning streak snapped.
"I have to be better than that," Lindback admitted.
The Stars took the lead with three straight goals from there. Tyler Seguin, who finished with a goal and an assist, scored four minutes after Nelson to cut the deficit to one.
Jason Spezza tied the game on the power play 1:25 later, blasting a shot past Johnson from the left circle off a feed from Alex Goligoski, who finished with two helpers.
Goligoski threw a shot on net that hit the post, and Antoine Roussel was out in front to put the rebound in for a 4-3 advantage.
The lead didn't last long, however, as Visnovsky tied the game 30 seconds later to into the final stanza.
Grabovski had two assists in the win ... Dallas went 1-for-5 on the power
play, while New York went 0-for-2.
