INTBAU Member Sandra Piesik in front of the reconstructed arish house (left)A population count from 1908 indicates that there were 800 palm leaf houses at that time; a century later, none of these houses remained. Development and migration to urban centres meant that arish houses had all been demolished. It was with this in mind that INTBAU member Sandra Piesik initiated the Liwa Arish House Project in 2010 to reconstruct a palm leaf house with the participation of the local community, and based on one of Thesiger's photographs from 1948. Despite the 40-year absence of this building technology, Sandra's project nonetheless involved women who had previously constructed and lived in arish villages. It was seen as an important exercise for the transfer of skills from one generation to the next, and it is hoped that the project will serve as a record of cultural memory for younger generations. Thesiger's 1948 Photograph of an arish village in the Liwa Oasis (left)Arish house construction demonstrates a profound understanding of the desert climate:Orientation: Arish house orientation was east-west. In the past, the western side of the settlement provided an area for evening prayer.Thermal Mass: Arish houses were grouped together to provide thermal mass and shading. A double layer of palm tree mats on the walls, as well as on the roof in the winter months, provided insulation.Shading: Shelter in the desert was primarily required for shade. Sandra's research into the temperature of sand both inside and outside of the reconstructed arish house showed that it was up to 23 degrees cooler inside. Wind: Arish houses protected their inhabitants from the wind by way of carefully measured distances between the houses, as well as with mats woven from small palm leaves (called 'hassir') placed in between walls.
Interior of an arish house (left); the four separate spaces of the reconstructed arish house (above)The Liwa Oasis is one of the most unique desert landscapes in the world. The recording and resurrecting of indigenous architecture provides an example of structures so deeply connected to the land, climate, and local community from historical, cultural, and ethnographic perspectives. It is hoped that this reconstruction project will serve as inspiration for modern interpretations of the local culture in future contemporary schemes. The reconstruction of the house was made possible by the openness of the local community and their collaboration with the architect and craftsmen. The local government is now using the reconstructed house for community activities. Photographs from the reconstruction have been donated to the Wilfred Thesiger permanent collection at the Pitt Rivers Museum, University of Oxford. The Liwa Arish House Project also received the honour of being 'highly commended' in the 2011 Emerging Architecture Awards, with photographs from the project exhibited at the Royal Institute of British Architects (RIBA) in London. This is a notable achievement for a project based on a traditional form of building, and indicates the relevance of tradition today for sustainable architecture that is sensitive to the local climate and environment. It has also just been announced that the Liwa Arish House Project will part of an exhibition on the palm leaf architecture of the United Arab Emirates at the Royal Geographical Society (with IBG) in London from 16 April – 25 May 2012. Bedouin women assist with the Liwa Arish House Project (left)Sandra Piesik will publish a book on the Arish house in February 2012, titled Arish: Palm-Leaf Architecture. The publisher Thames & Hudson's editorial summary is included below.

Word for the World - December 4, 2013
Seeker Unsensitive
Dr. Randy White
"For while I was passing through and examining the objects of your worship, I also found an altar with this inscription, 'TO AN UNKNOWN GOD.' Therefore what you worship in ignorance, this I proclaim to you. "The God who made the world and all things in it, since He is Lord of heaven and earth, does not dwell in temples made with hands; nor is He served by human hands, as though He needed anything, since He Himself gives to all people life and breath and all things;" (Acts 17:23–25)
As Paul was provoked in his spirit at the city full of idols, he began to debate with the local philosophers, and began to proclaim the strange teaching of the resurrection of Jesus Christ. Speaking to those who constantly wanted something new, he blasted the stupidity of their idol to an unknown god, telling them they worshiped this "god" in ignorance.
American churches have adopted an offend-nobody approach to ministry. Such an approach was foreign to the Apostle Paul. He was well aware that coddling to felt-needs of those who walked in ignorance was a recipe for disaster, not discipleship.
As for me, I pray for the day when American pulpits are filled with a band of brothers who address the ignorance of the masses of lost people who fill our cities, and often crowd our churches.
In His Grace,
Dr. Randy White

Ron Kawamoto retires from VHA Board of Commissioners
Ronald K. Kawamoto was celebrated Thursday, Oct. 23, upon his retirement from the Vancouver Housing Authority (VHA) Board of Commissioners. A reception honoring the commissioner was held in the VHA Community Room prior to the Board's regular monthly meeting. The commissioners presented Kawamoto with a framed resolution recognizing his accomplishments while serving on the board for the past eleven years.
Kawamoto was appointed to the VHA Board of Commissioners in 2003 by Vancouver Mayor Royce Pollard. He was reappointed in 2007 and 2012. He has served as both chair and vice chair of the board. During the presentation, current chair Art Miles praised Kawamoto for his human touch and his leadership. Miles applauded Kawamoto for his advocacy for progressive policies and diversification of housing types and services, which has resulted in consistent high performance measures by both public and private standards.
The VHA provides opportunities to people who experience barriers to housing because of income, disability or special needs in an environment which preserves personal dignity, and in a manner which maintains the public trust. A replacement for Commissioner Kawamoto will be selected following receipt of applications by the City of Vancouver.

YARN Bulletin
Good tidings Yarnigans.
I, Lourdes, am back for another two days and a ton has happened since I was here last.
Let's take a gander shall we:
A NOT TO BE MISSED interview with the amazing writer, Elizabeth Hand.
Jessica Cooper's, our PR Intern, first blog covers the magical Power of Three, seen throughout literature and more specifically YA.
National Poetry Month is around the corner and YARN has a most PROMPT way of celebrating alongside a special interview with Love and Leftovers author Sarah Tregay and new poetry EVERY WEEK in APRIL! (And, yes, I love puns.)
And finally a NEW short story from Isaac Blum, Waxing and Waning.
Here's an excerpt:
There are certain other things about people which are apparent, whether or not you know them. From sitting next to her in American History class, I knew that Valerie was small and thin. I knew that she had dark hair that fell just to her shoulders, and bangs which she kept out of her eyes by tossing her head to the side every couple of minutes. I knew that she always wrote in pencil, and that she favored thong underwear and solid color t-shirts.
I am puckered out.
So as always spread the YARN word, and keep being awesome.

One-fifth of the nation's entire blood supply is used during heart surgery.
Blood transfusions are not only costly, but they can pose risks for patients.
Now, some hospitals in the US are significantly reducing transfusion rates during heart surgery.
Harriet White has a new aortic valve, a new lease on life, and she is feeling great. She just had open-heart surgery!
Harriet says, "I'm thrilled that I didn't need a transfusion. It's just one more thing that can go wrong"
The Society of Thoracic Surgeons has issued new guidelines to help hospitals cut back on transfusions during aortic valve surgery. Measures include rationing IV fluids, controlling blood thinners, and cell saving.
Doctor Robert Brooker, Chief of Cardiac Anesthesia at Memorial Regional Hospital, says, "Using devices so that if there's some bleeding during surgery the blood is not sent to a sucker that's discarded. It's sent to a recycling-type device so you
Can have that blood re-infused later."
Memorial Regional Hospital in Hollywood, Florida is one of a number of hospitals in the US using blood conservation measures. Memorial dramatically reduced the percentage of heart surgery patients getting transfusions from 59-percent in 2006 to 19-percent in 2011. The benefits are significant.
Dr. Brooker says, "The people who get a blood transfusion generally, in general, do uh, do more poorly. They have a higher risk of death. They have a higher risk of infection."
As a result, Dr. Brooker says patients like Harriet do better overall and blood can be saved for those who really need it.
Surgery and blood conservation researchers found patients who had the surgery without transfusion were almost two times less likely to have a major complication.
TOPIC: Heart Surgery and Transfusions: Blood Conservation
BLOOD TRANSFUSIONS: A blood transfusion is when blood is transported through an IV into one's blood vessels. This procedure is done to replace large amounts of blood that was lost from a body during a surgery or injury. Blood transfusions are fairly common and rarely have any complications. It is estimated that nearly 5 million Americans will undergo a blood transfusion each year. (Source: www.nhlbi.nih.gov)
TYPES: There are three primary types of blood transfusions.
* Red Blood Cell Transfusions: Red blood cells carry oxygen from the lungs to all of the organs and tissues of the body. One reason for this type of transfusion is due to anemia, a condition in which the blood has a lower number of red blood cells than the normal count.
* Platelet and Clotting Factor Transfusions: This type of transfusion is done to halt bleeding that you can't see (internal bleeding) by working with the plasma to create clots.
* Plasma Transfusions: Plasma transfusions are done when blood is not clotting the way it should for a patient who is bleeding. A plasma transfusion may also take place after a severe burn or organ infection. Liver failure is another common reason for plasma transfusions. (Source: www.nhlbi.nih.gov)
NEW FINDING: Hospitals are reducing the amount of blood transfusions during heart surgeries not only to save money but also to save lives. Patients who receive transfusions are at an increased risk of developing major health problems such as kidney failure, infection and lung dysfunction. Memorial Regional Hospital in Hollywood has been reducing the amount of transfusions since 2007 and has seen significant evidence to claim that blood conservation can help save lives. Between 2007 and 2011, deaths related to open-heart surgery, infections and strokes all saw a drop of half or more at Memorial Regional Hospital. In 2008, new guidelines were implemented that were recommended by a team formed by the Society of Thoracic Surgeons which urged blood to be viewed as a scarce resource. (Source: Nicole Brochu)

Volleyball swept in consecutive matches at Villanova Volleyball Classic
After winning four straight, Bearcats have dropped their last three decisions
William and Mary Box Score
Villanova Box Score
VILLANOVA, Pa. -- Binghamton women's volleyball (6-7) dropped pair of matches at the Villanova Volleyball Classic Friday. The Bearcats opened the day with a 3-0 loss (22-30, 27-30, 21-30) to William and Mary, before being swept by host Villanova (19-30, 20-30, 18-30).
William and Mary (4-5) had three players hit for double-digit kills, led by the duo of Lauren Powell and Erin Skipper, both of whom put down 12 apiece. The Tribe led from wire-to-wire in comfortable victories in games one and three, but were tested and had to battle back to erase an 18-12 deficit in its game two win.
"I was a bit disappointed in the morning's performance," said head coach Glenn Kiriyama. "We came out a bit sluggish passing and our offense never really clicked. William and Mary is a solid team and they took advantage of our poor play."
Junior Ashley Allen (Mill Creek, Wash.) and freshman Michelle McDonough (Orland Hills, Ill.) combined for 23 kills to lead the Bearcats. Allen put down a match-high 13 kills, while McDonough added 10. Junior Jaclyn Strader (Kettering, Ohio), the America East leader in digs entering the week, added a match-high 19 digs.
In Friday's finale, BU was overwhelmed by a hot-hitting Villanova squad. The host Wildcats hit at a .328 clip and put three players in double-figures as they coasted to the straight sets victory.
McDonough and Allen once again led the Bearcats' attack, with 12 and 9 kills, respectively.
The Bearcats continue play at the Villanova Volleyball Classic on Saturday when they take on Princeton and Liberty, at 10 a.m. and 5:30 p.m. respectively.

Chicago Council Surveys
Survey Finds Bipartisan Support for Immigration Reform among Midwestern Business Leaders
Click to enlarge infographic
February 3, 2014
(PDF) released today by The Chicago Council on Global Affairs shows bipartisan support among Midwestern business leaders to pass immigration reform. The report comes days after President Obama urged Congress to move on reforms in his State of the Union address and the House GOP unveiled their immigration principles.
Seventy-five percent of Republican, 63 percent of Democrat and 55 percent of Independent Midwest business leaders surveyed favor the Senate bill on comprehensive immigration reform that includes a path to citizenship combined with stricter border control. While majorities across political lines support the outlines of the Senate bill, there is less support for legislation that would tackle individual issues incrementally.
"As Congress negotiates immigration policy reforms, The Chicago Council survey found that bills that package enforcement measures with a path to citizenship will garner more support," said Dina Smeltz, senior fellow for public opinion and foreign policy at The Chicago Council on Global Affairs.
Business leaders value a diversified and qualified labor force working legally in the United States. Two in three (63%) Midwestern business leaders support a pathway to citizenship for undocumented workers already in the United States, either immediately or after paying a penalty and waiting a number of years. An even greater number (75%) support a path to some kind of legal status for unauthorized immigrants.
About half of Midwestern business leaders surveyed currently (38%) or have ever (11%) hired immigrants. Those who hire immigrants say they do so to improve workforce diversity or are unable to find US citizens with qualifications or willingness to take the jobs. The businesses that have not hired immigrants tend to say they don't have problems finding qualified citizens.
"Previous surveys suggest that the more people know the facts about immigration the more likely they are to support reform," said Rachel Bronson, vice president of studies at The Chicago Council on Global Affairs. "Today's report is no different."
Majorities of Midwestern business leaders also say that immigration at current levels is good for their own companies (68%), the Midwest (60%), the Midwestern economy (60%), their communities (61%), and their own standard of living (63%). Nevertheless, despite numerous reports from across the political spectrum finding that immigrants don't drive down wages or take Americans' jobs, many anticipate negative impacts on American job security (58%), and business leaders are divided on whether immigration at current levels is good or bad for Midwestern job creation (49% each).
The Chicago Council Survey, fielded August 20 to September 10, 2013, included senior management from 175 small businesses, 175 medium businesses, and 150 large businesses that broadly represented the mix of industries located in the 12-state Midwest region. A majority of those surveyed said their companies employed mostly high-skilled workers (71% versus 29% mostly low-skilled).
"I often hear critics of immigration reform dismiss the views of businesses for being profit-seeking and looking for cheaper labor," said Juliana Kerr, who directs The Chicago Council's immigration initiative, "but businesses are the engines of economic growth and vitality, and in the post-industrial Midwest economy, we really can't afford to lose them. We should be mindful of their labor force needs when considering public policies."
Generous support for this survey was provided by the John D. and Catherine T. MacArthur Foundation and The Chicago Community Trust.
This survey builds on previous Chicago Council reports on immigration including
US Economic Competitiveness at Risk: A Midwest Call to Action on Immigration Reform
, a
May 2013 survey
that found public impressions of immigration flows are exaggerated, and a
December 2012 survey
that found informed Midwesterners are more likely to support immigration reform.

A take on beef & Guinness stew, adapted from a version found on about.com. If you're a huge fan of stout, use two full bottles/cans and don't bother with the broth. This was originally meant to use seitan, but as I stay away from wheat, I've used tofu instead. You can use either in exactly the same way, maybe even tempeh. I prefer to leave out the potatoes and serve over mash instead, but others might prefer as is with some crusty bread on the side. I'm sure any dark beer would make a good sub for Guinness if you have to. As a point of interest, Guinness brewed by Moosehead in St. John NB is vegan, labelled Guinness N.A. According to Barnivore.com, Guinness brewed elsewhere uses isinglass as a fining agent (which is a by- product of the fishing industry), so technically not vegan.

Fitness & Exercise
What to Drink When You Exercise
What About the Average Exerciser?
So what if you're just a "weekend warrior" when it comes to tough workouts? Or an avid exerciser who's not quite of athlete standing? Do you really need a sports drink when you exercise?
The answer, it seems, lies in how much you're sweating.
The American College of Sports Medicine says that during exercise lasting less than one hour there's little evidence of any difference in performance between exercisers who drink beverages containing carbohydrates and electrolytes, and those who drink plain water.
And, according to Clark, someone exercising 1.5 hours in a cool environment (who is probably not sweating much) is more in need of fluids or water than electrolytes.
The ABCs of Vitamin Water
I totally get adding electrolytes to drinks to help your body recover from vigorous exercise, but vitamins? It's still best to get vitamins and minerals naturally from foods and beverages -- like vitamin C from citrus and dark leafy green vegetables, and calcium from dairy products.
"Athletes will not need vitamin and mineral supplements if adequate energy to maintain body weight is consumed from a variety of foods," the American Dietetic Association and American College of Sports Medicine say in a position paper on nutrition and athletic performance.
But if you really like the idea of vitamin water, here are some things to think about:
- Whether alternative sweeteners are added. Many experts believe that even alternative sweeteners should be consumed in moderation, especially in children.
- Whether you'll be taking in too many vitamins. Most of the vitamins added to vitamin water are water soluble (like vitamin C, B vitamins, etc.). This makes it seem like any excess consumed can just pass out through the kidneys. This is true -- but that doesn't mean large amounts of water-soluble vitamins are entirely harmless. High amounts can affect the absorption or utilization of other nutrients. It's also possible that passing large amounts through the kidneys could cause problems.
- Whether you might be just as happy with dressed-up regular water. You can flavor it with lemon, lime, orange, or a strawberry or two. Green tea comes flavored naturally these days, too. This can be a different but healthful way to drink water once a day, too.
Energy Drinks for Exercisers
What about energy drinks for exercisers? Is there anything to them, besides plenty of caffeine?
The truth is that it depends on the energy drink. Red Bull, among the biggest names in energy drinks, pumps in 106 calories of carbohydrates (27 grams), and 193 milligrams of sodium along with its jolt of caffeine. Sugar-free energy drinks, meanwhile, give you the jolt without the carbs and calories.
Clark believes energy drinks do have their place. She says there is clear evidence caffeine is a nonharmful stimulant that provides performance-enhancing benefits, which can include improved endurance, stamina, and reaction time.

Well, it's important to know how your Actiontec is connected to the primary router: did you use the WAN port on the Actiontec or one of the LAN ports? For the latter, it's crucial you disabled DHCP on the Actiontec.
The ActionTec is connected to my router via the ActionTec's WAN port.I'm pretty sure (at least initially) all settings were as they should be as everything worked GREAT for some time (years). Over the last several months things have gotten spotty.
Is the device on which you watch the video stream connected via WIFI?
No. I'm not that bad. heheIt's a Roku on an ethernet connection direct to the Asus.

As Co-President of McCarthy Cook & Co., commercial real estate investor and developer Edward Cook possesses a solid understanding of the construction process and value within that realm. Over the last couple decades he worked with Mark Reuter of Reuter Homes to build and then renovate his initial Newport Beach (California) home.
Cook is primarily responsible for acquisitions, leasing and development as well as fundraising for the real estate investment and development firm, which specializes in office, medical office, life science and mixed-use real estate assets in the major metropolitan markets west of Denver. When he decided to build a new home closer to the coastline and docks of Newport Beach, he again enlisted Reuter.
"A Research Project of Sorts"
In March 2011 Reuter and Cook assembled a team of architects and designers to help them realize Cook's vision. When it came to choosing the building products, Cook's experience in commercial real estate development played a key role. "Edward builds incredible projects, such as the 900,000-sq-ft China Basin project in San Francisco, and he does a lot of research. Building this home was a research project of sorts," said Reuter, "we've got products from all over the world."
When deciding on the home's piping systems, Cook had a product in mind. He had discovered German manufactured Aquatherm PP-R pressure piping while researching technology options for the University of California San Francisco Neurosciences Building, Mission Bay Parcel 19A, a $200 million building that his firm built and manages.
McCarthy Cook & Co. had been working with engineering firm Flack+Kurtz (San Francisco) on the project and an engineer recommended Aquatherm as an alternative to copper. For nearly 40 years, Aquatherm has produced polypropylene-random (PP-R) piping systems for potable, heating and cooling, greywater, fire sprinkler, and other applications. The company has installations in over 70 countries worldwide, but is relatively new to North America.
Reuter said that it was clear Cook wanted to incorporate Aquatherm into the home. "We were definitely looking for world class products that were cutting-edge and Aquatherm was one of those that we found," he said.
Fusion Welding Throughout the House
All Aquatherm systems are connected by fusion welding, which means that no solders, sealants, gaskets or adhesives are used to achieve a permanent connection. The pipe and fittings become one solid, inseparable piece with no weaknesses. Training and equipment are the same for all Aquatherm Greenpipe® (potable water), Aquatherm Blue Pipe® (formerly Climatherm) for HVAC, Aquatherm Lilac® (for reclaimed water) systems, and Aquatherm Firestop Red Pipe systems.
Aquatherm won't leach, is rust- and corrosion-proof, and resists freezing, scaling, abrasion and other effects that may lead to hazards associated with other piping systems. "Aquatherm's environmental friendliness was important to us, but the durability and longevity was more important. We no longer run copper underground, because of the salty soil and air, and Aquatherm is perfect for that application here because it's resistant to that," Reuter said.
"Everyone gets the advantages of Aquatherm," Cook said. "PEX has been known to be eaten by rodents in this area and I don't think Aquatherm is going to have that problem. You also have the seismic advantages of Aquatherm, the sound attenuation benefits and the lack of corrosion, which all add up to a lot of positives."
The team used Aquatherm for the majority of the home's piping. They used:
A Learning Curve – and Plenty of Benefits
While Aquatherm was a bit more expensive than some of the piping options, Cook found an installer who reduced his price in order to learn about the system. Once the training had set in and installation commenced, the plumbers began noticing benefits though, and as Reuter said, they got better at the installation process as they went.
"They did a great job with it," said Cook. "It wasn't totally linear because of the learning curve, but once they got it and started working with it they really embraced it. And we paved the way for others in Newport."
McCarthy Cook & Co. is looking to use the piping for several of its commercial applications, and Cook is sold. "I'm proud of the plumbing on this home. There's no comparison between Aquatherm and the competition. With the fusion welded joints, once they are connected, they are not going to leak."

Reverend Leotis Tom of the Crossing Over Sanctuary Church preaches against gambling, but finds himself in a precarious position. The members have until Christmas day to pay off millions of dollars of debt to The Cheater Brothers' Piece of Savings Bank, plus he needs money for building project that will offer a new life to the senior members of his church and the town at large. But the only money available is a $25 million check from the lottery winnings of one of the members, which Rev. Tom denounces as sinful.

Surgical pathology is the study of tissues removed from living patients during surgery to help diagnose a disease and determine a treatment plan. Often, the surgical pathologist provides consultation services in a wide variety of organ symptoms and subspecialties. Surgical pathologists provide diagnostic information and/or second opinions. For example, when performing breast cancer surgery, a surgical pathologist's examination of tissues removed during surgery can help the surgeon to determine whether to remove lymph nodes under the arm, as well.
Surgical pathology includes both the physical examination of the tissue with the naked eye, as well as examining processed tissue under a microscope. New techniques of examination of tissue and cell specimens involve molecular diagnostics (DNA/RNA analysis), which involves analyzing DNA and proteins in the blood. Examples of the uses of the technology include the ability to:
Distinguish between benign (noncancerous) and malignant (cancerous) white blood cells
Detect early genetic changes which may result in cancer
Identify infectious agents in body tissues

The American Institute of Architects (AIA) and the National Electrical Manufacturers Association (NEMA) have called on Congress to support increasing the Energy Efficient Commercial Building Tax Deduction from $1.80 per square foot to $3 per square foot in order to help stimulate job creation. More than 50 organizations in the construction and environmental arenas have co-signed a letter to members of Congress.
The AIA and NEMA advocated for the tax deduction of up to $1.80 per square foot for the design and installation of qualified energy efficient building systems in new building construction or in retrofitting existing buildings in 2005 – the deduction was enacted that year. However, the economic crisis has reduced the amount of building design, construction, and renovations across the country, despite success in using the deduction to build and retrofit energy efficient buildings. Additionally, increased capital costs often dissuade owners from installing these systems.
However, according to Christine McEntee, executive vice president and CEO for AIA, "By increasing the deduction to $3 per square foot, Congress could immediately stimulate building design, construction, and renovation across the country, spurring job creation in every state and region, while enhancing our energy independence and improving our nation's infrastructure for the 21st century."
Additionally, NEMA president and CEO, Evan R. Gaddis, stated that the increase would provide a valuable job-stimulating incentive to retrofit and renovate existing commercial buildings.
"This tax incentive has a proven record of success in supporting thousands of construction, electrical, design, contractor, and manufacturing jobs prior to the recession," says Gaddis. "An increase is needed to address tight capital and other financing issues facing building owners. This is the type of measure that fits with the outlines of President Obama's jobs stimulus announcement on December 8, 2009."
