The intellectual instability of our species
Supposing that our species is collectively Insufficiently intelligent (or intellectually stable enough) to now protect our ecosphere. Correspondingly, this situation risks our survival, at least, as we are now constituted.
Central questions these implications give rise to then are:
What are the fundamental causes of this inadequacy?
Can we then attempt to sponsor a Worst Case Scenario solution, such as work towards the highest possible assurance of surviving seed populations to evolve some successor human species more fit to steward a healthy natural world?
At least twice, science indicates, our sspecies has passed through bottlenecks of ten thousand or so people. during the last 800 centuries.
The Gotterdammerung I hypothesize is now surely upon us, I claim. We are going to, willy-nilly, establish sanctuary alcoves all over the world (hopefully well-designed ones) for a long period of climate catastrophe. My topic begins with our evolution within whatever we are stuck with for coming centuries of inhospitable climate.
Gail .
Jan 13 2013: I wouldn't go so far as to say that we, as a species, are intellectually unstable. I would go so far as to say that we are unstable. We have decent levels of IQ, but we are sorely lacking in EQ. This makes it quite impossible to utilize even the hightest of IQs. This makes us unstable (insane).
- +1
Jan 15 2013: I think you couldn-n't be more wrong. There are many humans who are predominantly sane, if not eternally so. Some show us, their descendants, no particlyar flaws, others only slight or non-malign ones. I think being universally elements of various identifiable groups we are intellectually captivated, but not all groups qualify as "nuts", as far as I'm concerned.
I wouldn't make that same claim about the ones in charge all over.Jan 15 2013: RE: "We are a group. . .". Oh. I see. Thanks for clearing that up for me.Jan 15 2013: Just as "It takes a village ...", I think a little planning en mass could evoke useful suggestions about how we would protect the world if we have to start over and reinhabi it, particularly a damaged and sorely wounded version of what we have now.
What should our rules for subsisting and coexisting with other species become in future?
As groups we show plenty of complex examples of setting up formal rules to live by.Jan 14 2013: If I understand your definition correctly (please do correct me if my response is completely off base), I would identify one of the fundamental causes of this collective intellectual "instability" as the fact that intellectual deficiency does not inhibit procreation. In fact, there are many instances where intellectual deficiency facilitates higher procreation rates. Conversely, intellectualism often leads to other pursuits which distract from or delay procreation. This process contributes to higher population percentages of individuals who are not exposed to intellectualism (by genetics and/or in the environments in which they are raised).
This situation is further aggravated by public policies and attitudes that further discourage intellectual values and promote spending resources on short-term solutions that are subversive of traditional natural selection. The cycle is self-fulfilling, since demonstration of intellectual capacity is not required for participation in the voting process that dictates public policy, and positions of office (generally/collectively) do not attract individuals who are capable or willing to consider the long term implications of our actions and policies.
How to prime our descendants to evolve into a race that is more intelligent and less destructive to the environment is highly problematic, given the situation described above. If a worst case scenario occurs and we are forced to contend with a self-imposed, inhospitable (to human life) environment, there may be a chance of restoring "traditional" natural selection such that intellect (and by proxy, conservationist values - if the two go hand in hand) is selected for. But we also must consider the possibility that there isn't a way to ensure the survival of humanity, and that Earth's new chemistry and climate will only serve to make way for another generation of new species to evolve (and hopefully not make the same mistakes we have in their societies).
Jan 15 2013: By intellectual instability I do'nt wish to indicate deficiency so much as what you might think of as corruptibility, It isn't meant to refer to individuals, but is a comment on group behaviors. For example, the mad rush of China to achieve the same high level of consumeristic living standards, at the expense of the environment as is the most dangerous peaceful achievement of the developed world.
Evolution will once more produce a handful of survivors at worst, I expect, after the climate hits its worst.
I just want to debate trying to establish an intellectual outlook defining a better grade of steward of "the Creation" than we have been.
Jan 17 2013: Thank you for clarifying. I was also referring to collective behaviors. I still feel that addressing the situation I described in my first post is imperative to successfully implementing any sort of preventative measures, but for the sake of this discussion, I will disregard it for now and treat the conditions as (more) ideal.
In order to facilitate intelligence and conservationist values among future generations such that they begin to evolve into a race less destructive to the planet, we must structure our societies such that these traits will be advantageous and get selected for on a grand scale. The best way I can think of to go about doing so would be to create a societal paradigm shift by promoting such values among our children practically from birth. The educational model that some organized religions use has successfully produced billions of people (the majority of the population) who subscribe to teachings of their faith and impart those teachings to their own children. In general, I believe its success can be largely attributed to the age at which "indoctrination" begins, the social incentives that following the teachings and demonstrating favorable behaviors provide, and the fear that is invoked from certain aspects of their teachings. Perhaps something similar can be adapted for this purpose as well.Jan 17 2013: don't worry. the earth won't make mistakes humans have made.
And humans made them intentionally.
Jan 17 2013: Which intentional mistakes are you referring to? Aside from developing nuclear weapons (and the like), which are destructive by design, it seems to me that many of the things that have been the most regrettable and harmful to the Earth were created for other purposes, and the damage to the Earth was accidental or collateral.Jan 14 2013: Knowledge that births positive change is desirable; knowledge just for the sake of it is not very helpful.
What use is the intelligent evil man that discovers a weapon that can wipe off the planet by a push of a button?
O'Neil Poree
Jan 15 2013: As I told Ms. d"Etienne, knowledge of a very special kind is the only issue I am attempting to sponsor. To Hades with those who intransigently seek, knowingly or otherwise, only to destroy.Jan 14 2013: Maybe identifying independent vs dependent variables in the real world is not as easy as we were taught early in university mathematics. Now what to do? Why wouldn't there be other intelligent life? And why didn't we find signals with SETI. Oh no, you could be right about a slightly different problem. Intelligence may be self-correcting. Besides there have often been humans with larger brains than the average for modern man. Look at Neanderthals extra 100cc's.

Jan 15 2013: It's clear brainsize, per se, is not the answer. Establishing appropriate saving-type knowledge happens to be.

(1) "What are the fundamental causes of this inadequacy?'
ANSWER: ---- Simple!
It is that our instincts can not cope with today's INVALID happiness.
Instincts are our ancestors' successful experiences saved in DNA. They are the major component of our soul.
(2) "Can we then attempt to sponsor a Worst Case Scenario solution"?
ANSWER: ---- Can easily!
Just let people understand what the INVALD happiness is. And then reprogram our SOUL.
(For INVALID happiness and SOUL, see the 1st article, points 1-3, 14, at https://skydrive.live.com/?cid=D24D89AE8B1E2E0D&id=D24D89AE8B1E2E0D%21283&sc=documents)Jan 13 2013: So, the idea you have that you consider worth sharing is what?
Jan 15 2013: We are a group organism, as much or moreso than any other lifeform. I want to prejudice the philosophical bent of our successors in a stewardship notoin. It's a typical way we establish groups, harnessing our inborn religiosity to certain coherently related tasks.

As I embark on another chapter of my professional life, I introduce to you "Extra Points," a new blog that will appear weekly on GoAlmaScots.com. I hope to discuss topics that you, the audience find interesting, thought-provoking and maybe even blood boiling.
Only time will tell and you will be the judge. So on to our first topic.
At this time of year, high school basketball tournaments are being played out across this great country, as boys and girls chase a dream of championships and first-place medals. For the most part, the games are decided on a level playing field and with rules that make sense for all parties.
With one big exception – shot clock rules.
Only seven states in the USA employ a shot clock rule – California, Massachusetts, New York, North Dakota, Rhode Island, South Dakota and Washington. Every year it seems, more so in the past few, the debate becomes very vocal in the states that do not have one.
Each season there are instances where the debate becomes a scream, as both sides argue the merits of the rule and cite examples that have occurred in their domains.
In Minnesota two weekends ago, a situation arose in a boys' state semi-final contest pitting two schools in the large school bracket of the tournament. Hopkins High School, a perennial state power with several Division 1 candidates this year and in the recent past, was taking on Shakopee High School, a relative newcomer to boys' basketball prowess and considered overwhelmed in this matchup.
The teams fought valiantly for two 18-minute halves and found themselves tied 41-41 at the end of regulation. On to a five-minute overtime they went. Hopkins won the tip and took possession of the ball. What ensued was basically a game of chicken as Shakopee lined up defensively in a tight 2-3 zone and Hopkins set up their offense. The Hopkins player tucked the ball under his arm, literally refusing to try to score. Shakopee just waited and watched, refusing to defend the ball and press the action.
This went on and on, from one overtime to another, until a spectacular halfcourt shot finally gave Hopkins a 49-46 four-overtime victory. But even an ESPN Top 10 highlight was overshadowed by the strong feelings about the strategies that played out in the game's final minutes.
To me, this was a very disappointing way to have a game of that magnitude decided, and the Hopkins coach should be ashamed of himself. That opinion begs the question as to why I don't feel that way about the Shakopee coach.
Simple. The 2-3 zone is a common strategic defense and Shakopee believed it gave them the best opportunity to compete against a superior opponent. Hopkins on the other hand, employed a strategy that was non-offensive (or offensive, if you get my drift) and they had the talent to play basketball the way it was meant to be played.
If there was a shot clock, this would be a non-story and my first blog would be entirely different.
High school basketball is the only competitive organized form of the sport that does not force teams to keep the action moving. This Minnesota example is only one of many that have jumped out in recent years – other instances that have spurred debate have happened in Nebraska, Ohio and Maryland, to name a few. It seems to become more prevalent with every new season.
Of course, Michigan is one of the states without a shot clock and you do see it become a factor from time to time. Kudos to the Crystal Falls-Forest Park Class D girls' coach, whose team led Sacred Heart by as many as seven points late in the April 15 State Championship contest. He implored his squad to play on and win the game by forcing the action. In this case, it did not work, as Sacred Heart pulled off the improbable comeback and won the game and the title.
Many would criticize this coach for not stalling or holding the ball with that sort of lead. Not me. He taught his girls a valuable lesson – we will win or lose by playing our game and not by some sort of last-minute gimmick. Good for him.
Now, many will disagree with my opinion and would point to the fact that Hopkins won and Crystal Falls-Forest Park lost. I say, so what? Winning is important, but so is winning in an honorable way. The Crystal Falls-Forest Park coach lost with honor and has nothing to be sorry for with his team's second-place finish.
High school basketball is a great spectacle when played (and coached) correctly and a shot clock would only enhance the integrity of the game.
It is time that all 50 states move to improve this wonderful game and add a shot clock to the rules. It does not have to be cost prohibitive and every school district in every state could make it happen.
It will only make things better for all involved.
"Has listening become a lost art? Listening is assuming the responsibility, generosity to do something with whatever you hear. After all it is someone's gift to you."

Reviewed By Robert B (Aiea, HI) Reviewed for a 2005 Chevy Corvette —12/3/2012 10:43 AM
I had read reviews about the tuner before I bought it and if it weren't for the great deal I got at Auto Anything I may not have pulled the trigger. I was surprised at how small and light the unit is. I downloaded the latest update and then first tried it in my 2000 Silverado. I didn't notice a huge difference so I divorced it from the truck and installed the 91 octane tune in my 2005 Corvette. It went from being fast to down right spooky. At WOT it is a beast. Money well spent.

Posted in Dr. Ying Competition
Anjeli Nandwani, a sophomore from Orange County's Lake Highland Preparatory School, took home the top prize in the Dr. Nelson Ying Science Competition. Anjeli won a trophy, a $5,000 cash scholarship plus $1,000 awards for her science teacher and school.
Since 1999, philanthropist, scientist and entrepreneur Dr. Nelson Ying has worked with Orlando Science Center to encourage the outstanding scientific accomplishments of our community's teens. Projects submitted are required to have the ultimate goal of benefiting humanity.
Nandwani, 16, created a natural pesticide to help fight white flies and preserve tomato populations. The state's $268 million tomato industry is the most valuable vegetable crop in the state, and 25 percent of the vegetation is ruined annually by pests — mainly the white fly. In fact, white flies affect 90 percent of the devastated acreage and their saliva can spread disease that can lead to total crop failure.

I would appreciate recommendations and common approach to aluminum boat repair from you pros.
My friend has an aluminum boat that is taking water between the bottom of the boat and the keel, so evidently there is a split somewhere under the keel. The keel is about 100 gage or so and I believe the bottom is about .080. The keel is stitch welded about 2" on 12" or 18".
He has tried some liquid sealer on the bottom and it stopped for awhile, but is now leaking again. He told me the fit on the bottom is not that tight between the keel and the floor and that is where he applied the sealer.
My going in position is to take the motor and accessories off and turn it upside down and either TIG or MIG. Or, is it an acceptable approach to pull the lilvewells/floor and tackle it from the top? Or both?
I heard of some type of liquid sealer called GulVit (spelling ?). Not sure that is the way to go.
Reccomendations please and thanks

Aluminum Boat Repair
Sealer will not repair the boat structurally speaking...it is temporary at best. It also makes future repairs truly suck.
My first question would be what brand and model is this boat? Next would be is it a cherry or has every bubblegum artist in the land had a go at it?
I have fixed quite a few of these. Some I have taken the time to remove the entire keel piece and weld the split only to have it leak again later when it re-broke
If I went to all the trouble to do what it took to flip the thing over then I would weld the entire length of the keel on both sides. I have done that on the last few and non came back that way. By that I mean welded the entire keel not flipped it over.
I cannot help but think the way they lay that fusion weld on that turned down flange INSIDE the keel on some is rinky dink at best.
If you choose to cut only part of the keel off be aware of this...the flange protrudes into the keel on several models and is easy to cut at the same time so take your time
Some have the turned down flange and are welded inside with another piece laid over that and welded as well. Then they spray their dang foam all over them.
Usually when I do the welding phase I have the boat on the trailer and the front higher. I fill with water until it runs out the crack and then tilt it higher yet. Then if I suspect burning I simply lower the jack and rush the water over the weld
I would recommend not bidding the job but rather try to give them a ballpark figure at best and try to work by the hr. If you do have to bid it after you seriously try to estimate your time then double it because it will amaze you how much time you spend prepping and leak checking plus the water bill and all that. Welding is the easy part if you have a tig... if not then send it down the road!!
BTW...his sealer didn't fix it because it is skip welded...unless he applied sealer to the entire keel it would be impossible for it to have worked

Really appreciate your reply. You advise has proved bang on every time.
I think it is a Landau (spelling??). Whoever, they are out of business now. The boat is at its best 5 years old.
Your approach to welding the keel makes perfect sense, espescially raising the front end to account for a potential fire. Never thought of that. I was being a little greedy and was thinking about ease of TIG welding and access to the repair if we flipped it over.
Yup, he has put some kunk on it already. How much and what I am not sure, but he has tried to fill all the gaps between the keel and the bottom....which worked for a little while. I do not know if acetone or equivalent would do any good. He did say it is leaking more.
I am beginning to think it may be best to cut this bear loose. Mainly since he has tried some sealer already. I can only imagine how hard that would be to remove.
Thanks again, BTW I picked up on your tip and found a tank for my lift from a guy near Osage.

Strategic Air and Space Museum
Editor's Review
Be prepared to feel small in the shadow of this museum's giants. Missiles stand tall outside the entrance, while a Blackbird fighter plane looks menacing as it tilts toward visitors entering the museum. Just off Exit 426 on Interstate-80, the museum houses historic U.S. Air Force military aircraft and a few vehicles from space. Each boasts its own claim to fame, such as the SR-71A Blackbird, a titanium craft that could fly from New York to Los Angeles in an hour.
You have to admire the strategy required to park these behemoths into two hangers packed with bombers, fighters and transporters with numerical names and nicknames such as the Tornado, T-Bird, Goblin and Intruder. They angle in every direction or hang from the ceilings. Visitors can see the mechanical evolution of Air Force defense with a B-17 Flying Fortress heavy bomber from World War II, a U-2 Dragon Lady for Cold War reconnaissance, and a sleek 1970s B-1A Lancer designed for strategic bombing.
If all of the aircraft feels like overload, there are human stories to focus on, including exhibits about Doolittle's Tokyo Raiders and the Tuskegee Airmen from World War II. Special events include overnights at the museum and a Top Gun weekend camp for kids, along with hands-on traveling science exhibits on topics such as robots and outer space. Pilot and astronaut wannabes can pay extra for a ride in the museum's multiaxis trainer or a flight simulator that spins, drops and elicits a few screams.
Admission charged.

Saturday's ETSU-Appalachian State doubleheader moved to 1 p.m.
Wednesday, April 14, 2004JOHNSON CITY, Tenn. (Apr. 14, 2004) - Saturday afternoon's doubleheader between East Tennessee State and SoCon rival Appalachian State from Cardinal Park in Johnson City, originally scheduled for 2 p.m., has been moved to 1 p.m. The Bucs improved their record to 17-19, 8-10 in SoCon play after a three-game sweep at Wofford this past weekend while Appalachian State (5-27, 3-15 SoCon) lost two out of three to Davidson. The Mountaineers took two out of three from the Bucs last season in Boone, N.C.

The Flavors & Aromas Of Varietal Chocolate
Page 3: The Differences In Single Origin Chocolate By Region
by Peter Rot & Karen Hochman
Overview: Single Origin Chocolate
The Theobroma cacao tree grows in the rich soils of the tropical rainforest, in a global belt 20 degrees north and south of the Equator. While much of the flavor of the cacao is attributable to the genetics of the plant, the fermentation and drying of the cacao beans post-harvest, along with each region's soil composition, climate and other factors, contribute to regional differences in cacao bean flavors.
Here we have developed—for the first time anywhere that we are aware of—a guide to the regional characteristics of the great chocolate producing countries. In other words, single origin chocolate.
It will help you understand and appreciate, for example, the differences among the Porcelana, Chuao, Maracaibo and Sur del Lago regions of Venezuela; or among cacao from Java in the Pacific, Trinidad in the Caribbean, and São Tomé, an island off the west coast of Africa.* Now when you read about chocolate from these areas, or consider them for purchase, or taste them, you have a very important frame of reference.
Before we start, let's define the basic terms:
In sum, think single origin and don't get confused by marketing. If the beans come from a single estate (i.e., one farm or plantation within the entire region), so much the better—that means the estate grows some amazing beans. But you're still tasting cacao from the origin of Costa Rica, Java, São Tomé or wherever.
*This guide only references the regions acknowledged to produce the finest cacao, used by the most prestigious chocolatiers. A comprehensive list of cacao-producing countries includes Belize, Colombia, Costa Rica, Dominican Republic, Ecuador, Grenada, Guadeloupe, Guatemala, Hawaii, Honduras, Jamaica, Java, Madagascar, Martinique, Mexico, Nicaragua, Panama, Papua New Guinea, Peru, Philippines, Saint Vincent and Grenadine, Samoa, Santa Lucia, São Tomé and Principe, Sri Lanka, Surinam, Trinidad and Tobago, Vanuatu, Venezuela, Windward and Leeward Islands.

Recently, I wrote a short story that contains a flashback in the middle that was used to explain a major plot point in the story. Does a significant scene set as a flashback break up the flow of a short story (usually considered to be somewhere between 1,000 and 15,000 words, depending on who is asked), and if so, why?

It's all about context. I don't think there's a blanket answer. An Occurrence at Owl Creek Bridge is, in a sense, a flashback in the middle of the story, but it works exquisitely.

Fernando Alonso refused to point the finger of blame at his Ferrari team after conceding the Formula One title to Sebastian Vettel.
Alonso was eight points ahead in the F1 drivers' standings going into Sunday's Abu Dhabi Grand Prix, but he could only manage a seventh-place finish at the Yas Marina circuit.
Ferrari's initial strategy appeared centred around holding off Australian Red Bull driver Mark Webber, who was second behind Alonso in the overall standings before the race.
An early pit stop was meant to match that of Webber, but ultimately left Alonso unable to pass the Renault of Vitaly Petrov, gifting the world championship crown to Vettel.
"After the race it's always very easy to see the best strategy," Alonso said.
"If we didn't stop, Webber would have overtaken us. If we did stop, we cover from Webber but we let Petrov and (Nico) Rosberg in front. It was a very difficult call I think."
Russian Petrov turned in an exceptional performance in a largely meaningless race for his French team, dashing the hopes of both Alonso and Webber and having a decisive say in the outcome of the season.
"I tried to pass him once and he protected like it was the last lap of the championship and we were both fighting for the championship," Alonso said of Petrov's dogged display.
"He was very aggressive but he drove very well and made no mistakes."
Despite the disappointment of failing to capture a third world championship, Alonso, who won the title in 2005 and 2006 with Renault, was relieved to be back in the hunt after some less than competitive recent seasons.
"It was very good for me, especially after two years with some difficulties fighting to get into Q3," he said, referring to a lack of pace in qualifying during his unsuccessful return to Renault.
"I think coming back to winning races, to fight for the championship in the last race ... I won five races, I overtook in victories Niki Lauda, Juan Manuel Fangio - big names in Formula One - so for me it's something amazing."
"I'm sure with this team it will be very possible to fight for championships in the future."

Next week the Stockholm Convention's Persistent Organic Pollutants Review Committee is convening again, an event insiders refer to as POPRC 6 (pronounced "pop rock"). Today's post will serve as the "pre-game show" for the meeting, highlighting what's a stake. On October 8 I fly to Geneva to attend the weeklong meeting, and with any luck I'll manage to update GroundTruth with a few dispatches from the meeting and then a "post-game" debrief afterward.
The POPRC is the panel of international experts that advises the Convention (aka POPs treaty), the agreement between 172 nations (the U.S. not among them) to eliminate the production and use of persistent organic pollutants like PCBs and dioxins and organochlorine pesticides like chlordane and lindane. As Pesticide Action Network Senior Policy Analyst Kristin Shafer explained in a recent post, the chemicals targeted by the Convention are the worst of the worst: the ones that build up in our bodies, persist in our environment, and disturb the delicate balance of hormones. Children and infants are particularly at risk.
The Stockholm Convention is the one forum where the world comes together to consider taking action on these poisons. And it's at these meetings were rubber hits road. It's one thing to make lofty statements about the importance of environmental protection and of ridding the world of persistent organic pollutants, as the Ministers of the Environment for a variety of countries did during the so-called "High Level Segment" of least year's Stockholm Convention meeting. It's another to actually do something about these issues, like phasing out the use of these chemicals completely, and putting resources into cleaning up stockpiles and waste. So far, the gap between good intentions and meaningful action has been huge.
And so we'll see what happens next week in Geneva. The issues to be considered by the include:
No one ever said getting rid of these pollutants would be easy; if it were, we wouldn't need an international agreement. Fundamentally, the delegates in Geneva have to decide whether to rise to the challenge or content themselves with speeches about the importance of the environment. Are we willing to risk the possibility of having to pay slightly more for cashews and cotton? Is it worth investing in educating small scale farmers about non-chemical pest control? My colleagues from NGOs around the world and I will be there to remind the POPRC that ultimately such costs will be repaid with substantial interest.

Rider Blog: Kyle Wyman
NEWS July 24, 2012

Courtesy of Kyle Wyman:
(July 24, 2012) - With a big break ahead of me, it's very easy to reflect on the season I've had so far. We have five weeks off while we wait for the XR Showdown to start at Indianapolis, and I can't believe how fast we've gotten here. It seems like just a few weeks ago I was loading up for Daytona, heading south in my pickup truck with only the budget for one race. Now we are seven races into the season already?! Man, how time flies.
This has been one of the most fun and rewarding seasons of my life. It's quite incredible how things have changed in just four months time. From having one bike and a few small sponsors, the crew consisting of my Dad and my Uncle, to now having a full blown team - complete with five motorcycles, an XR1200 Rental Program, the best crew I could ask for and the most passionate sponsors in the business.
I have always had aspirations of being a team owner. I find satisfaction in working with and pleasing sponsors and helping companies achieve their marketing goals in racing. At the same time, the fact that I am building the brand of 'Kyle Wyman Racing' is merely a bonus, and today is a particularly special day in that we announced the addition of a full-time teammate, Michael Barnes.
I think this is just another great step for me and will be a valuable learning experience when it comes to team management. It's very easy to portray the image you want through your rider when you, yourself, are the rider. Now I've added another rider to the mix, with hopes of expanding the reach of KLR Group, Spyke's Harley-Davidson and all of my incredible sponsors that make it all possible. Four months ago I could have never imagined I would have the opportunities that I am graced with now, so for that I am extremely grateful.
Now, onto the racing portion. The last event we were at was Mid-Ohio Sports Car Course just a week and a half ago where I finished 2nd. I've been on the podium seven times in seven races, which is a huge personal accomplishment for me, as I only had three total podium finishes in all of the 2011 season.
The pressure was essentially off at Mid-Ohio - the points were pretty much set for the XR Showdown, so it was merely a dress rehearsal for what is to come at Indianapolis and the remaining rounds thereafter.
I'm really looking forward to the XR Showdown. It's going to be an all-out battle from start to finish, with the champion taking home #1 plate honors and a $25,000 check. I think it's safe to say that the stakes are pretty high, and I plan on working as hard as I can to be the best rider possible and put myself in a position to win the championship. For all that my sponsors and crew have done for me, I plan to give it my all and leave nothing on the table in return.
So if you are reading this, and maybe you've never checked out a Vance & Hines XR1200 race, now is a better time than ever. We are going to put on one hell of a show, so prepare yourself for some of the most intense racing you've ever seen!
Thanks for reading!

Thursday, September 11, 2003Martin, Tenn. (Sept. 11, 2003) -- East Tennessee State's football team will meet UT-Martin tonight at 8 p.m. (EST) in Martin, Tenn. You can listen to the game for free on the Buccaneer Sports Network link on www.ETSUBucs.com. Surprisingly, Thursday night's game will be the first meeting between the two Tennessee schools. East Tennessee State comes into the game with a 1-1 record, after falling narrowly to Eastern Michigan, 28-21, in the season opener on Aug. 28 and defeating Concord, 44-0, in the Bucs' home opener last Thursday night. UT-Martin is also 1-1 after defeating Austin Peay on Aug. 28, 21-20, and falling to Arkansas State, 63-6 on Saturday. This will be ETSU's third consecutive Thursday night game to start the season ... This is the second of three Thursday night games for UT-Martin, with the Austin Peay game falling on Thursday, as well as the Skyhawk season finale against Murray State on Nov. 13. The Bucs are led on offense by senior running back Gaven Varner, freshman quarterback Carl Meadows, senior wide receiver Andrew Nuckolls and sophomore wideout Brian Matthews. Meadows has been impressive in his first two collegiate starts, completing 28-of-51 passes for 420 yards and five touchdowns. Varner has been a workhorse at tailback, carrying the ball 57 times through the first two games for 230 yards and two touchdowns. Nuckolls leads the squad with seven receptions, 108 receiving yards and two touchdowns. Matthews is tied for the team lead with two receiving TD's and also has five catches for 102 yards. On the defensive side of the ball, sophomore linebacker Mike Cullen leads the team with 13.5 tackles, senior linebacker Matt Palmer and junior safety Gerald Sensabaugh are tied for second with 9.5 each and senior defensive tackle Brandon Calton is fourth with eight. Palmer and senior defensive end Travis Williams are tied for the team lead with 1.5 sacks each. Special teams has also been a bright spot for the Bucs so far this season, with junior kicker Jonathan Godfrey hitting 3-of-4 field goals, including kicks of 48 and 51 yards and senior punter Aaron Bass accumulating a 41.5-yard average on 11 punts.

Two weeks before his reelection last year, President Obama set a goal of achieving a grand bargain on the budget early in his second term. "We're going to be in a position where, I believe, in the first six months we are going to solve that piece of business," he told The Des Moines Register. Marginal tax-rate hikes, entitlement cuts, and tax reform would set the country on a healthier path. They could also end the interminable fiscal squabbles and free up some political oxygen for priorities such as immigration reform.
It was a nice idea. Then the fiscal-cliff brawl of late 2012 brought everyone back to earth. After the collapse of talks with House Speaker John Boehner over a package that could have raised $1.2 trillion or more in tax revenue and curbed entitlement spending, Obama had to settle for just $600 billion in revenue and a series of winter showdowns over spending.
Somehow, the president is still touting his hope for a grand bargain. But even restoring stability will require surmounting immense hurdles. The obstacles range from a broken federal budget process (which has made it harder for the sides to negotiate), to the fallout from a fiscal-cliff deal that limits Democratic options on taxes, to the steadily rising demographic pressures that could cause entitlements such as Medicare to crowd out other budget programs. For those committed to reforming America's fiscal system—let alone devising a grand bargain—the next two years will be exceedingly difficult. Here's why.
If the budget process worked the way it's supposed to, Obama and his aides would have spent much of December putting the finishing touches on a fiscal 2014 budget to be sent to Congress in early February. Then, as spelled out in the Congressional Budget Act of 1974, the House and Senate would settle on a framework—or "resolution"—for spending and taxes, paving the way for Congress to take up the 13 annual appropriations bills due on Oct. 1.
Instead, the White House spent last month frantically negotiating with congressional leaders to avert a cataclysm. The two sides scraped through by deferring tough decisions and setting up more showdowns. Now, when Congress should be preparing its budget resolution and discussing how to fund the government, it will be debating basic questions that should have been resolved years ago, starting with: What is the role of government?
This was not a fluke. The 2012 fiscal-cliff clash was the culmination of a years-long decline in stable budget-building; the process has simply reached a new low. The House and Senate haven't agreed on a full budget resolution since 2009, Obama's first year in office, when Democrats controlled both chambers.
Months of deliberations on tax and spending policies have been replaced by eleventh-hour deals like the cliff, stopgap funding bills, and omnibus packages passed under the threat of a government shutdown. Congress has adopted at least one budget resolution in 31 of the 38 years since 1975, when the modern congressional budget process began, according to the Congressional Research Service. The seven failures have all occurred since 1998. And the House and Senate haven't jointly passed a full year's blueprint for taxes and spending since 2009. (Even when Congress has passed a budget, it never has been good at sticking to a timetable. It has met its spring deadline for the resolution only six times since 1975, most recently in 2003.) A return to regular order is unlikely anytime soon. The hyper-partisanship at the root of the disarray shows no sign of abating.
Everyone seems to agree that this is "no way to run government," as Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell, R-Ky., put it in an ABC interview this month. Rep. Chris Van Hollen of Maryland, the ranking Democrat on the House Budget Committee, tells National Journal, "If we could have a common budget, come out of a budget conference process, it would mean we've resolved a framework for a lot of these issues." But that hasn't worked. Now, when Obama unveils his spending blueprint for 2014, it will serve more as a negotiating position for the coming standoffs than as a framework for appropriations. "The budget will represent the way the president would write the budget if he got to write it," Van Hollen says.
The GOP will try something similar, sources say. At an issues retreat concluding Friday in Williamsburg, Va., Boehner was to discuss with rank-and-file House Republicans how they should advance another budget this spring. Republicans will use that to pressure Senate Democrats to pass their own spending plan. Budget proposals are now used as political messaging tools, which of course hinders the process of actually funding the government, says Gordon Gray, a budget expert at the American Action Forum and a former aide to Sen. Rob Portman, R-Ohio. "If they'd agree on actual budget resolutions in both chambers, they'd be setting a lot of the conditions for getting these issues resolved well in advance of their expirations," he says.

EFSA: EU neonicotinoid conclusions not affected by UK study on bumble bees
9:08 AM MDT | June 5, 2013 | Michael Ravenscroft
The European Food Safety Authority (EFSA; Parma, Italy) has identified what it says are several weaknesses in a study published by the UK Food and Environment Research Agency (FERA); the study suggests that neonicotinoid pesticides do not have a major effect on bumblebee colonies under field conditions. The study does not affect EFSA conclusions, published in January, regarding risks for bees related to the use of the neonicotinoid pesticides thiamethoxam, clothianidin, and imidacloprid, EFSA says. The European Union recently adopted a...

Phonathon – The Phone Lines Were On Fire!
Freshman volunteer callers raise over $111,000!
Each year the freshman class calls Webb alumni and friends to raise money for the Webb Alumni Fund (WAF). Typically they raise more than they had the prior year by a few percentage points. Last year the freshmen received pledges totaling $63,000 for the 2008-2009 fiscal year. Over this year's two-night Phonathon, held on March 23rd and 25th , twenty freshman callers made 450 calls and 137 generous individuals pledged over $111,000 — an amazing 76% increase over the previous year. Most encouraging is that the vast majority of donors increased their gifts over last year. The student callers were broken into four groups of two shifts each night. The high fundraisers in each of the groups were: Justin Van Emmerik, Gerardo Nixon, Colin Spillane, and David Eddy.
The WAF is critical to Webb continuing its mission. Thank you to everyone who made a pledge during the Phonathon. If you weren't called, you have until June 30th to make your gift to the 2009-10 WAF, but please don't wait until the last day. Donations can be made online at http://www.webb-institute.edu/support-us.html. Alumni can see the status of the 2009-2010 Webb Alumni Fund campaign and check out the "Honor Roll," identifying the alums who have already contributed or pledged to the current WAF campaign by going to Webb Institute's alumni website at http://alumni.webb-institute.edu.

Super PAC
Hall and Oates To Namesake Super PAC: 'I Can't Go For That'
Last week came the news that Atlanta-based Hall and Oates fans had started a Super PAC called The Hall and Oates Fans for America Super PAC. It got a bit of attention, mostly for its novel name – so much so that Hall and Oates caught wind of it. And it seems they "can't go for that."
Hall & Oates Fans Fight Mitt Romney By Forming Super PAC
A group of Hall & Oates fans are declaring "I Can't Go For That" to the Republican party.

|Vermont Chocolate Show This Weekend
Vermont is chock full of food producers. Cold Hollow Cider Mill, Ben and Jerry's ice cream, King Arthur Flour, Green Mountain Coffee Roasters, Cabot Cheese are the best known but the list goes on and on with what seems like hundreds of small and medium size companies making items as diverse as cookies, pizza, beer, and tea. If you like good quality food, you will love Vermont.
This weekend is a good opportunity to sample chocolate from Vermont and other places in New England. The Vermont Chocolate Show was formerly held in Stowe but it has moved to The Inn at Essex, a larger venue near Burlington.
The exhibitors are mostly made up of chocolate manufacturers but also some surprises such as an art exhibit and a Vermont vodka company that makes chocolate flavored spirits!
The event is scheduled to run Saturday and Sunday, May 17 and 18th.

Ultimate speed from HEAD just got faster. The brand-new racquet is the top model of the redesigned HEAD YouTek™ SPEED tour racquet series from HEAD, which introduces a revolutionary technology to modern racquet construction: HEAD Graphene.
Graphene is a unique material consisting of a single two-dimensional layer of carbon atoms with exceptional properties. It's extremely lightweight, but has a breaking strength 200 times greater than steel. The integration of Graphene in the racquet shaft allowed HEAD engineers to reduce weight in the middle part of the tennis racquet and shift it to functionally more relevant areas in the grip and the head instead. This unique construction with Graphene technology allows for the first time an optimized redistribution of weight in HEAD racquets: more weight in the grip makes the racquet more manoeuvrable and easier to swing; more weight in the racquet head enables even more powerful shots.
"I've tested the new secret weapon and it exceeded my expectations", said world no. 1 Novak Djokovic prior to the first Grand Slam of the season in Australia. "It will give your game even more speed and control." HEAD's new TV and digital spot, which launches today on http://www.youtube.com/headtennis, shows how Djokovic secretly tested the new Speed racquet.
As part of a digital teasing campaign, in December a selected number of 50 tennis fans worldwide also have had the chance to already test a black prototype version of the new HEAD Speed racquet and leave their reviews on http://www.head.com/g. Now, HEAD is offering all consumers a special incentive to try out and test the new Graphene racquets: via the global 'Test&Win' online promotion players can give their feedback via http://www.head.com/g or http://www.facebook.com/headtennis for a chance to win a practice session with HEAD star players Maria Sharapova and Novak Djokovic.
The HEAD YouTek™ Graphene Speed Pro is the top model of the newly developed Speed tour racquet family, which also includes the MP, S, REV and PWR models, as well as the new Speed Junior racquet, in order to provide tennis players off all levels with the perfect racquet for their individual game. The Speed REV introduces a completely new model to the HEAD racquet line-up – thanks to Graphene technology it provides intermediate players a very lightweight and easy to swing racquet with yet a high level of power.
The brand-new HEAD YouTek™ Graphene Speed racquets are available in retail stores around the world now.
HEAD Graphene technology – SHIFTING THE BALANCE OF POWER
Key features:
- Graphene is the world's strongest and lightest material
- In the construction of HEAD racquets, it enables a redistribution of weight from the racquet shaft to the grip and head.
- With this optimized redistribution of weight in the racquet, players generate more kinetic energy when they hit the ball. With less effort, more power is generated.

I made this really cool looking terrarium, you can hang it everywere. I made it all out of scraps, recicled wood, innertube, paint find in the street and recicled plaxiglass! I m going to make another one (with the pieces i m showing in the steps) for the shower! I will put plant of Potus, they really like umididity in teir air roots.
I find the dome of the main one in the street, and the one I show in the steps is given to me by a frend, it was his motorhome window.
You can find them in junkyards.
The globe need very little wather couse it keep the dirt from evaporated too much, so it really look cool but need very few care, if you choose the right plants.
Step 1: WHAT YOU NEED
_plaxiglass dome;
_few bolts and nuts;
_acrilic paint or watherproof house paint;
_inner tube.
_drill, cutting bit and drill bit;
Step 2: CUT PLYEWOOD AND PAINT IT
paint it with wather proof paint, several layer (allowed to dry beetwen each layer).
Step 3: MAKE HOLES
2.make two holes in the plywood, the one for hang it on the wall, so they need to be big enough for BIG screw, that will be able to hold it up.
3.make some hole in the bottom part of the globe, so that the water can drain out. (is not mandatory, you can also don't make any hole if you like your floor clean, just allowed the water to evaporated all from the bottom before watering it again).
4.make big hole (big enough to fit your hand in it and the plant, and allowed air in the terrarium) in the front middle part of the globe with the cutting bit.
Step 4: ATTACH PLEXIGLASS GLOBE TO PLYEWOOD
Step 5: FILL IT WITH DIRT AND PLANT!
put plants in it, depending on how much light there is in the room , the temperatur and the dirt you choose.
i'm going to make this. thank you
This would look very nice with cacti in them. They need very little water to thrive. Have you thought of making a 3 litre soda bottle terranium?
(step 2)
You shouldn't need to add CO2 for several reasons:
1. Plants exhale O2 during the day, but they exhale CO2 at night. The exchange is somewhat weighted toward eventually using up the CO2 BUT
2. Unless you are trying VERY hard for a perfect seal, there is enough airflow to keep the plants healthy. Of more concern is dialing in the perfect amount of airflow to keep the humidity at a moderate level. Too wet will promote mold, too dry and the plants won't be happy.
The plants won't grow as fast as if they had a super abundant supply of CO2 BUT
3. You really don't want terrarium plants to grow fast. Most people grow terrariums for their extreme low maintenance, which means you won't want to be in there trimming all of the time.
Of course if you had some high humidity vegetables or herbs (not many out there) growing in a terrarium, then CO2 might increase your yield.

I did find the train WAY too long, and I found the spilt to have a lot of fabric covering it, so it was difficult to see the spilt when standing. As I wanted more of the split to be showing I had some the fabric removed when I was getting the train shortened, I then used a clasp to bunch the fabric at the top of the spilt, which also added a bit of sparkle. The alterations only cost another $35, so it was still worth purchasing.
I was originally concerned about ordering a dress like this from an overseas site, but was very happy with the dress, and would certainly order from light in the box again!

Haricots Verts à la Dijonnaise
If you like it, save it!
Save and organize all of the stuff you love in one place.Got it!
If you like something…
Click the heart, it's called favoriting. Favorite the stuff you like.Got it!
Author Notes: I call this salad "à la Dijonnaise" because the quartet of ingredients that sets this one apart -- lemon zest, honey, mustard and anise seed -- are combined in the pain d'épices that M.F.K. Fisher describes in one of her essays about living in Dijon. Rounded out with olive oil and garlic, the combination makes a delightful salad dressing. It's perfect with the simple, straightforward flavors of haricots verts, heirloom cherry tomatoes and cucumbers (which I add to give a bit of crunch to the salad). If you can't get haricots verts, use small, slender Blue Lake or similar string beans. I highly recommend that you grind the anise seeds with the garlic, as it simply transforms the flavor of both.And if you don't have roasted garlic, and like raw garlic in your salad dressings, then by all means use it. The egg yolk in this is a polite nod to the traditional French recipe for mustard and lemon sauce for green beans, which is where the idea for this dressing actually started. I've included in the notes below alternate instructions for making this ahead, to take on a picnic. Enjoy!! - AntoniaJames —AntoniaJames
Food52 Review: As aargersi, who first tested this recipe as an Editors' Pick, put it: "AntoniaJames is a master at layering flavors so that everything sings together and there is no one pushy soloist." We couldn't have said it better ourselves. This is the ultimate clean, crisp salad for a picnic (no wilting here), with summer's best produce -- perky haricots verts, sweet cherry tomatoes, and crunchy Persian cucumber -- accented by measured doses of anise, honey and tarragon. The dressing is enriched with hard-boiled egg yolk and roasted garlic -- two festive ingredients that make it special but still safe for a sunny day. - A&M —The Editors
Serves 4
- 1 pound haricots verts (some call them "French beans")
- 2 small organic Persian cucumbers (See note below.)
- Kosher salt for sprinkling over the cucumbers
- 1 tablespoon minced shallot
- 1 tablespoon tarragon vinegar
- Yolk of one hard boiled egg
- 1 teaspoon honey (or more to taste), warmed
- ½ teaspoon lemon zest, or more to taste
- 1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice
- 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
- 2 medium cloves of roasted garlic (See note below.)
- 1/2 teaspoon anise seed
- Pinch of sea salt
- 1 tablespoon extra virgin olive oil
- 12 or 14 cherry tomatoes
- 2 tablespoons of finely chopped fresh parsley
- In a very small dish, combine the shallot and vinegar.
- Finely dice the cucumbers (leaving the peels on, if they are organic). Put them in the bowl in which you plan to make the salad. Sprinkle with salt and set aside.
- In a small bowl, mash the yolk of the hard boiled egg with the back of a small fork, then add the honey, the lemon zest, the lemon juice, and the mustard. Beat well to combine, and to get out whatever lumps of egg yolk you can, without too much difficulty.
- In a heavy mortar, crush the anise seed with the roasted garlic and a pinch of salt and grind to a smooth paste. Add to the egg yolk and lemon mixture; add the olive oil and whisk to combine.
- Trim the beans, then steam or blanche them to the degree of tenderness you like best.Plunge them into a basin of ice water when they're done, to prevent further cooking. Drain and shake off any excess water.
- Drain from the bowl with the cucumbers the water that has accumulated there. Add the cherry tomatoes and the beans.
- Drain the vinegar from the shallots into the bowl with the other dressing ingredients. Mix the dressing well and add to the salad, along with the shallots.
- Gently toss. Test for salt and add more, if necessary. Add freshly ground black or white pepper, to taste. Sprinkle on the parsley.
- Enjoy!!
- NB: If taking this on a picnic, or making it ahead for a potluck, block party, etc., remember that the acids in the dressing and the cherry tomatoes will discolor the green beans if added too far in advance. So, instead of adding the tomatoes with the cucumbers and beans, and then tossing with the dressing, drop the cut tomatoes in a medium sized jar with the dressing. Put the shallots and vinegar in that jar too, instead of on the salad. So, in essence, you'll combine the cucumbers and the string beans in one container, and just before you're ready to serve, toss with the dressing, cherry tomatoes and shallots. The juices from the tomatoes, by the way, once combined with the other dressing ingredients, will make it really tasty. ;o)
- I find raw garlic to be a bit harsh, so I usually have roasted garlic on hand. (I put two or three cloves, unpeeled, on the baking sheet any time I roast vegetables, or in a ramekin when I'm baking bread.) If you need to roast some, put however much you want in an ovenproof dish and roast at 350 degrees Fahrenheit until just soft. (It will start to bubble a bit and smell fragrant) This can take ten to twenty minutes -- or longer, I suppose -- depending on how hot your oven is, and the size of the garlic cloves.
- Note about cucumbers: If you can't get organic Persian cucumbers, use an English or other seedless cucumber. Peel it if it's not organic or if the skin is thick. You'll need about a cup and a half of chopped cucumber.

I've always made a version of this dish that was similar, though tried this recipe. I just didn't use the anise and tarragon vinegar since I had those flavors in another side. I loved this version and it will be my new staple as it received rave reviews. I especially liked adding the cooked yolk to the dressing, which I had never heard of prior.

I recognize this may sound absurd, but I cannot find tarragon vinegar where I live.
Sherry vinegar? White wine vinegar? Sprite?
almost 2 years ago bugbitten
Or just stay with the lemon juice already in there.

I'd use white wine vinegar. That's a good default, for just about any purpose. But all lemon juice would work, too, as bugbitten suggests. ;o)

Hi, I doubled your recipe to bring to an Independence Day pot luck, which included a lot of picky eaters. When asked why I had chosen this dish, I had the opportunity of reminding everyone that France was the true, first ally of our nation.
All gone, I proudly took home an empty bowl. Thank you.

I just finished this salad for maybe the 5th or 6th time and I remembered that I never told you how wonderful it is. I love the vinaigrette and use it on other salads as well. Just had it with steak and its just so delicious. Thanks for such a wonderful recipe.

Thank you, BKR! I actually posted the dressing recipe separately last year, shortly after I created this recipe, because I found it to be so versatile with our summer salads. Instead of using a hard-cooked egg yolk, I use creme fraiche and fruity olive oil. As you can see from the photo, I make it in my mortar and pestle. Here is the link: http://www.food52.com/recipes...

Thank you so much, everyone. This is such an honor, especially when I look at all the recipes that you, and the other extremely talented and imaginative cooks in our midst here, submitted. And hats off to MeghanVK for her simple, elegant cucumber and melon salad, which is just as deserving for inclusion in the book. My heartfelt gratitude to all of you for your kind words and for your inspiration and encouragement. I love this community. ;o)
