Department of Energy:
Plutonium Needs, Costs, and Management Programs
RCED-97-98: Published: Apr 17, 1997. Publicly Released: Apr 17, 1997.
Additional Materials:
- Full Report:
(202) 512-6082
Office of Public Affairs
(202) 512-4800
Pursuant to a congressional request, GAO reviewed the Department of Energy's (DOE) management of its plutonium inventory, focusing on: (1) how much plutonium the United States allocated for national security needs, how much it designated as excess, and how DOE determined these amounts; (2) DOE's estimates of the current and near-term costs for managing plutonium; and (3) DOE's estimates of the long-term costs for managing plutonium.
GAO noted that: (1) the United States allocated 46.8 metric tons of its 99.5 metric-ton plutonium inventory for national security purposes and designated the remaining 52.7 metric tons as excess; (2) to determine how much plutonium was needed for national security, DOE reviewed its plutonium inventory database; (3) in general, the plutonium in the custody of the Department of Defense and some of the plutonium managed by DOE's Defense Programs (the organization responsible for supporting the nation's nuclear weapons) was categorized as needed for national security purposes; (4) the remaining plutonium managed by Defense Programs and other DOE organizations was categorized as excess to national security needs and will ultimately be disposed of; (5) the national security plutonium is further divided into several subcategories; (6) DOE has a technical basis to support the need for the amounts of plutonium it holds in most of its national security needs, but not for the plutonium it holds for reliability replacement warheads and strategic reserves; (7) from fiscal year (FY) 1995 through FY 2002, DOE expects to spend about $18.8 billion on plutonium management and related activities; (8) these costs consist of about $10.5 billion for plutonium inventory management activities, including approximately $1.8 billion for national security plutonium and $8.7 billion for excess plutonium; (9) DOE expects to spend another $8.3 billion for plutonium-related waste management and site cleanup activities; (10) the costs of managing excess plutonium are about four times greater than the costs of managing national security plutonium because much of the excess plutonium is held in unstable forms and requires special management activities, such as handling, processing, and packaging; (11) national security plutonium is generally contained in more stable forms, such as metals and weapons components, and therefore requires less management; (12) DOE also expects to spend over $3 billion for longer-term plutonium storage and conversion activities through about 2023; (13) this estimate is based on DOE's plans for storing the excess plutonium and converting it to forms that will make it more difficult to reuse in nuclear weapons; and (14) however, DOE's cost and schedule estimates are subject to many uncertainties, a number of which stem from the relative immaturity of the planned conversion technologies.

Being in graduate school is a lot like being kidnapped, or so Decatur-based author/professor Josh Russell would have us believe. His new novel, A True History of the Captivation, Transport to Strange Lands, & Deliverance of Hannah Guttentag: A Novel, out Aug. 14, recounts the story of the title character as she graduates from the University of Tennessee and goes off to Cornell to pursue a Ph.D. in English. The stuff of Guttentag's life slowly begins to resemble the conventions of the "captivity narratives" she studies, in which female narrators recount allegedly true stories of being kidnapped by "savages" in the early days of colonial America. Russell, who teaches at Georgia State University, was awarded a 2006 National Endowment for the Arts Literature Fellowship, which allowed him to complete his Townsend Prize-nominated 2010 novel, My Bright Midnight.
What does the story of a woman attending graduate school in the early '90s have to do with the captivity narratives of the 18th century? What made you want to put the two things together?
I've long had an interest in the form of the women's Indian captivity narrative. For years and years I thought about writing one. My first attempt was a satirical historical novel, but I got about three pages in, and it was the least funny satirical novel anyone had ever written. I put the idea on the back burner. Finally, it came to me that the most contemporary version of the women's Indian captivity narrative would be a narrative about someone going to graduate school. These people who live in urban areas of civilization go off to the "woods," or rural areas where a lot of these colleges are. The typical laments in women's Indian captivity narratives are: You have to eat strange food, you have to listen to people say strange things, you have to watch them do these weird dances. I was like, "This is grad school." That was the start, the rough version. In the book, she ends up studying captivity narratives so there's this slightly meta-fictive element.
The book is mostly set in Ithaca, N.Y., and Lincoln, Neb. Are these places you know well? Did you visit them as part of your research?
They're places that are useful to me because of the fact that I've been there but I haven't spent enough time to get to know them very well so I can just kind of "make them up." I wasn't overwhelmed by the details of reality. I think it would have messed me up if I'd gone back to them for the novel.
Do you ever write about places where you're currently living or is it always about places that are in your past?
I'm trying to do it right now and I've had to come up with a trick to manage it. I can't really write about the place where I'm living. I'm overwhelmed by it. I feel this weird responsibility to verisimilitude. When I lived in New Orleans, I couldn't write about it. From a distance I can sort things out and make them fit into the imaginative narrative. My first book about New Orleans, Yellow Jack, I wrote when I was living in Boulder, Co. My second novel, My Bright Midnight about New Orleans, I started in Georgia and finished in Nebraska the summer I was out there. This last book I wrote here in Georgia and never does anyone come to Georgia in it.
You grew up in the North, but currently you live in and write a lot about the South. There are lots of famous examples of writers who do the reverse — who grow up in the South and make their way North — but there aren't many writers who have followed your path.
I grew up in Illinois and Maryland. My wife is a native Southerner. She was born in Virginia and spent a lot of time in Alabama and Louisiana growing up. She refers to me as a carpetbagger. I like it. At one point I proposed to a poet that I know that we edit something called "The Anthology of Carpetbagger Lit." I was trying to claim it was a genre, but it would have been a very short anthology. I think one of the reasons the South has always appealed to me is that it has a literary tradition it's fiercely proud of. It is nice there's a lot of pride, and it's a pride that extends beyond writers and highbrow readers. It makes it a great place to live and to work.

Spread of Persian in Central Asia[edit]
Rajmaan (talk) 03:25, 13 July 2014 (UTC)
Parsī or Farsī?[edit]
- This article is well done, for there are no evident historical misunderstandings to be found. Nevertheless, I'd like to add some common misinterpretations concerning the Arabs' "conquest" of the ancient Sasanian Empire, mostly expressed by Iranian and other nationalists who had borrowed certain approaches to history, for instance blaming "the Arabs" for everything that went wrong in that area.
- It seems to be an old saying that "the Arabs", especially their script, do not own the sound "p", and therefore, after the so-called "conquest" of the Sasanian Empire, "they" changed all former Persian names with a "p" into "f". So, they assume, it became Farsī (فارسي) instead of Pārsī (پارسي) and Iṣfahān instead of Ispahān, for instance. But there is this question: Why have some words survived until today, like pedar (پدر), panǧ (پنج), or paḏīroftan (پذيرفتن)? Until now I couldn't find any answer.
- In Arabic you still find, for instance, the word Iṣbahān (اصبهان) which means that "the Arabs" changed the p-sound into a b-sound, as well. Iṣbahān, for instance, is the name for a Moroccan/Andalusian musical mode (ṭab'/طبع), too. And there is this famous medieval musician and musicologist called al-Iṣbahānī (also al-Iṣfahānī (see both forms in this article!)
- My supposition is based on the fact that at that period many languages were in a state of sound-changing. There are examples of Indo-European languages like Father, in Icelandic Fadhir, in German Vater (pronounced "Fater"). But all of these words correspond with Latin pater, Greek patéras, Sanskrit pitar, and last but not least Persian pedar. Similarly there is the word for five (in English), fünf (in German), pet (in Eastern European languages), pente (in Greek), and last but not least panǧ in Persian. All these examples show very easily how the f and p sounds are kind of exchangeable. And therefore "the Arabs" cannot be blamed for replacing the p into f.
- Not to forget: "The Arabs" were just a handful of beduines in "conquering" a huge empire! This empire was extremely weakened by itself, for there were the uprisings of several social movements against the strict Zoroastrian and political hierarchy in the 5th and 6th century CE (the Mazdaki movement, for instance), and, by the way, there were these permanent wars with the Eastern Roman Empire. All of these elements were the real cause of the Sasanian Empire's collapse. "The Arabs" just took advantage of the entire situation.
- Last but not least: The Arab script is the developped derivation of the old Aramaic script which was the official script in the Sasanian period. Therefore the orthography is nearly the same.--Imruz (talk) 17:30, 15 September 2014 (UTC)
- The changing of the Persian letter "P" into either "B" or "F" can be attributed to the Arab conquests of Persia. One should not necessarily take offense to this, rather, it is to educate as to why certain names are the way they are, and why there is "Farsi" and "Parsi". As is the nature of Wikipedia, if one finds something to be inaccurate, one is free to edit it with their factual input. That's the beauty of Wikipedia. With peace. Negahbaan (talk) 22:33, 7 October 2014 (UTC)
This articles uses Farsi as that is by far the more common usage in both Persian and in English, and we go by common usage.Jeppiz (talk) 12:41, 2 January 2015 (UTC)
Shouldn't we take into consideration that the name of the language in Persian (not Arabic) started with either p or f in different historical stages of the Persian language alone? 188.8.131.52 (talk) 21:09, 7 October 2015 (UTC)
- No, we should not. We don't call English "Ænglisc" either. Jeppiz (talk) 22:05, 7 October 2015 (UTC)
- I just meant that in the article it is not explained what the Persian name for the Persian alnguage was in different stages of the language. That is what I meant. Can someone explain? 2A00:1028:919E:BE42:1DCC:D52F:B889:482C (talk) 13:26, 9 October 2015 (UTC)
Ethnicity parameter?[edit]
Anonymous editor (IP) added the "ethnicity" parameter to infobox. diff Is it necessary? --Zyma (talk) 17:17, 7 April 2015 (UTC)
SIL macrolangauge[edit]
According to SIL, Persian macrolanguage includes only 2 languages. So other languages which are not belonged should be removed for consistency. We should wait until SIL update their data. --Octra Bond (talk) 04:16, 8 July 2015 (UTC)
| lc3=tgk |ld3=[[Tajik language|Tajik]]<!--This and the following codes aren't part of the macrolanguage per SIL--> | lc4=aiq |ld4=[[Aimaq language|Aimaq]] | lc5=bhh |ld5=[[Bukhori language|Bukharic]] | lc7=haz |ld7=[[Hazaragi language|Hazaragi]] | lc8=jpr |ld8=[[Dzhidi language|Dzhidi]] | lc9=phv |ld9=[[Pahlavani language|Pahlavani]] | lc10=deh |ld10=[[Dehwari language|Dehwari]] | lc11=jdt |ld11=[[Juhuri language|Juhuri]] | lc12=ttt |ld12=[[Tat language (Caucasus)|Caucasian Tat]]
- Where does the infobox state that it only should list SIL Macrolanguages? Just lump all of it IMO. - LouisAragon (talk) 12:08, 8 July 2015 (UTC)
- What about this [1] archiveurl? Also, why we ignore all other sources and only consider SIL? For example, Tajiki is an obvious dialect/variety of Persian. How SIL guys ignored linguistic data/facts and separated it from other Persian dialects (Dari and Iranian)? Same for the other ones. See their articles and cited sources how linguistic classified all of them as Persian varieties/dialects. --Zyma (talk) 16:06, 8 July 2015 (UTC)
- @Kwamikagami: Ethnologue has traditionally been our source of last resort, so I agree with Zyma that we should not rely exclusively on SIL, but consider others and give priority to more specialised sources (such as Iranica or Compendium Linguarum Iranicarum). --Florian Blaschke (talk) 16:30, 8 July 2015 (UTC)
- We're not following Ethnologue. That's why we include all those ISO languages which are not part of ISO Persian. If we have good (rather than just convenient) sources that additional varieties should be included, by all means let's include them. And if I got some wrong (assuming I'm the one responsible), by all means let's remove them. Let's just be sure that they have their own articles (or are merged into another language) and are listed appropriately in the superior clade so that our readers can find them.
- As to Octa's original question, we're not following Ethnologue, but Glottolog. Ethnologue and ISO are not reliable sources. The reason we depend on them so heavily is that they're very convenient, and when we went through and made sure we had articles or redirects for all ISO codes, Ethnologue was generally the only source we used. But when more reliable sources, such as specialist literature, disagrees, we should follow. That's more difficult, of course: we need to decide which source to use, or if we create an amalgam of several, as opposed to the mindless regurgitation of whatever Ethnologue says. That can result in cherry-picking, POV edits, nationalism and partisanships -- in other words, actual work. But if we have the people willing to do that work, let them go for it.
- Currently, inclusion in this article is decided by what Glottolog includes under its "Farsic-Caucasian Tat" node (We could narrow it down to their "Farsic" node by removing Tat, but can't narrow it down any further based on that source without dividing up Western Persian from Tajik.) Glottolog is based on Schmitt (2000), who the editors determined was the best source for classification. If we want to use a different classification, we should have reason to believe our judgement is better than that of the linguists at Glottolog. — kwami (talk) 17:49, 8 July 2015 (UTC)
- But the language names used by Schmitt's subclassification are uncommon. For example, he uses [Farsic] instead of Persian. When he uses Farsic and Farsi instead of Persian, why he didn't call Old Persian as Old Farsi too? Any reason to call some varieties Farsi and the others Persian? I don't see any valid point in using this name "Farsic". This is the reason why I say we shouldn't ignore other sources and we just represent SIL/Ethnologue or Glottolog for language families and classifications. --Zyma (talk) 12:22, 9 July 2015 (UTC)
- Zyma has a point, Glottolog has its own quirks and idiosyncrasies (even if they may be inherited from the idiosyncrasies of the sources it uses). Some personal judgment in choice of sources is inevitable. That's what we have expert editors for, after all. Even choosing Glottolog over SIL is ultimately an arbitrary (if informed) decision, not something that can be derived from some Wikipedia rule. We can't do without decisions and choices informed by individual Wikipedians' expertise – as handy as it would be if we could outsource them. --Florian Blaschke (talk) 14:48, 10 July 2015 (UTC)
- Exactly. Similar to my points, I agree with you. --Zyma (talk) 06:00, 14 July 2015 (UTC)
- The editors of Glottolog make up names as they go along, as they consider them to be trivial and not worth fussing over. They are therefore not a RS for naming. They are better than Ethnologue for classification, mutual intelligibility and as a bibliography.
- Exactly. Similar to my points, I agree with you. --Zyma (talk) 06:00, 14 July 2015 (UTC)

Western Persian, Dari language, Tajik language[edit]
There's been some tendentious editing, but also an issue with the name. Hopefully the forms "Western Persian or 'Farsi' ... Dari ... Tajiki" are not objectionable to any non-brigading editor. Now "WP or Farsi" is pretty straightforward, and Dari is doubled apparently to parallel the other two languages. As for Tajik language and Tajiki, they are actually different names; you can say "Tajiki", but saying "Tajik" alone is like saying "speak *Arab". You have to either add the ezāfe or a term like "language" after it. Likely Dari was doubled as a parallelism to match the other two dialect names, but I think we should dispense with them except for "WP or 'Farsi'". Ogress 03:43, 15 April 2016 (UTC)
- This seems reasonable to me (though I don't know what "brigading" is supposed to mean :p ). --JBL (talk) 12:23, 15 April 2016 (UTC)
- The problem editor spamming us with IP-hopping reverts with zero attempt to reply to anyone or to even use the edit summaries, who I just reverted again. Ogress 22:20, 15 April 2016 (UTC)

There are times when I go to my blackberry messaging contacts to open a message and the phone will not allow me to open my chats. Why is that?
I think you can try two things : the soft reboot, and if it does not work, the hard reboot. Don't worry, you can't lose data with these two reboots.
Soft reboot :
1) Hit the three following keys at the same time :
- Alt
- Right Shift
- Delete
2) wait 2 minutes for the Blackberry to wake up.
Hard reboot :
1) your Blackberry device is on
2) remove the battery and wait for a minute
3) Put the battery back
4) wait 5 minutes for the device to wake up.
Please tell us if it works for you.
I know that this was posted awhile ago, but I figured that I would post my response for others who may be having this problem, as I was last night.
I had closed out all my open chat conversations with all of my friends, thinking a little housekeeping was needed. However, I couldn't respond to any new bbm messages, but I could see them. It wouldn't let me open up new chats either.
I did a restart, but that didn't work. It's best to turn it off, and take the battery out for a few seconds, then it did end up working! So hopefully this isn't the start to maintenace issues with my Blackberry, I got it about 2 weeks ago!

Jockey Joe Talamo has gained the mount on Lewis Michael, one of the leading contenders in the inaugural running of the $1 million Breeders' Cup Dirt Mile, which takes place Oct. 26 at Monmouth Park.
Agent Ronnie Ebanks confirmed that Talamo, a 17-year-old Louisiana native now based in Southern California, would handle the riding chores on Lewis Michael, who is coming off a fourth-place finish in Oak Tree's Goodwood Breeders' Cup (gr. I) over the Cushion Track surface at Santa Anita. The Dirt Mile is contested at one mile and seventy yards.
Lewis Michael races for the Illinois connection of owner/breeder Frank Calabrese and trainer Wayne Catalano. The 4-year colt by Rahy--Justenuffheart (by Broad Brush) won Arlington Park's Washington Park Handicap (gr. II) on Polytrack July 28 by nearly five lengths in his start prior to the Goodwood. He had been ridden in both races by E.T. Baird.
"We think Lewis Michael is very, very live for this race," Ebanks said. "He probably should have won the Goodwood, but he had to chase a :22 opening quarter and got a little tired after leading in the stretch. We think he'll do much better here."
Talamo also rides undefeated Nashoba's Key in the $2 million Emirates Airline Breeders' Cup Filly & Mare Turf (gr. IT).

Hey there, i just got started in this BB comunity and ive been using my curve 8520 for about a year without any complain but yesterday a plugged it into my pc, it seemed to be updating its sofware and i went "ok" but now.... i have a problem with whatsapp... when i tried to run it again after the BB update, it asked me to update it too, so i did it and now it seems to be missing all whatsapp conversation since january 2, 2014..........pls, i use it to work too and i have many important documents on it....does anyone know if i already lost my info and why?,,,,do u know how can i recover it?....tyvm in advance.....what should i do?
Hi and Welcome to the Community!
Responding to offers to update without evaluating the consequences is, as with all computing devices, risky. Knowing nothing more than what you've reported, it's rather tough to know why this happened...typically, the update process takes a backup and then restores from that backup once the update succeeds. But, if anything goes wrong, the restore may not have happened. Since you used your PC, it also should have offered to you that backup...as long as you did not refuse that, then you should have stored on your PC a backup file from which you can restore.
Look on your computer for files with extension of BBB or IPD...if there are any with date/time of around when this update happened, then they may be candidates for you to use as the source of restore. You can find detailed instructions via the Backup link in my auto-sig on this post. There is no guarantee that the data you need is in that backup...the best backup process involves much more than just the Desktop Software backup (if indeed one was even taken when you updated).
Good luck!

This article harks back to the origins of this periodical as IEEE Expert Systems. Even while expert systems as a field or paradigm was morphing into intelligent systems, it was recognized that cognitive task analysis was critical in the design of new technologies. Furthermore, as a part of cognitive task analysis, it is crucial to conduct some form of proficiency scale to help identify the experts whose knowledge and skill might be revealed and specified in the creation of reasoning and knowledge-based systems. In this article, we will advance the claim that identifying and studying franchise experts can contribute to the design of intelligent systems. Of further interest is the possibility that the knowledge elicited from such experts might be invaluable for the practice of accelerated learning. We refer to "franchise" experts because they are not only expert in their chosen technical domain but also expert with regard to the organizations to which they belong. As a concept map organizer within a "knowledge model," some of the nodes are appended with icons that link to other concept maps that drill down into details, technical documentation, schematics, URLs, and so forth. This concept map shows that the franchise expert's knowledge refers to organizational structures and topics.

He was listed in serious condition at Spartanburg Regional Medical Center Sunday night. Police have signed an arrest warrant against the 17-year-old, charging him with assault and battery with intent to kill. The 14-year-old girl who filed the complaint with the police said the shooter was with her and other friends walking along East Hampton when Fitzpatrick drove up, got out of his car and started a fight with a 15-year-old boy, the report stated. The 17-year-old then shot Fitzpatrick from behind. Original Atex file name: SHOOOT.1

No 'Poo To You, Too!!!
I just did my last 'poo.
I'd like to say it was monumental, or highly satisfying, or even memorable. But it was not. It was just another 'poo.
After many months of goading by some of you, as well as a year of contemplation, I'm ready to throw my shampoo in the trash (or, more likely, pull it out of the trash and use the bottles for something else) and never. use. it. again.
I'm ready to live my life without commercial shampoos … and maybe even conditioners.
And, just like the homemade deodorant experiment, I encourage anyone who wants to join me on this to do so and give me your feedback on how it's going.
Before, we were the Pit Sniffers. This time, we'll be the Hair Chewers … the Hair Pickers? … The Hair Something. Help me out here.
Let's talk about why you should go No 'Poo with me.
The Benefits of Ditching Shampoo
Okay, so I know I don't have any direct evidence that it's going to solve my oily hair problem that crops up if I don't wash within 24 hours. I haven't tried it yet, right?
However, there are seriously thousands of stories out here in the vast internet universe about how going no 'poo changed the lives of billions of hairs for the better.
Here's what it seems we can expect:
- More body
- Less oily hair days
- Exponentially less frizz (are you listening, curly-haired girls?)
- More money in our pockets, because we're not buying shampoo
- Even MORE money in our pockets, because the need for other hair products decreases a bunch
- Shinier hair (yay!)
- FAR fewer icky chemicals touching our scalp and skin and potentially causing nerve damage or even cancer
- A fabulously decreased impact to the environment in SO many different ways (less plastics bought, less chemicals entering the water supply, less consumption)
Why haven't I done this already?
Scintillating Tidbits About Commercial Shampoo
Here's the thing that persuaded me the most into going no 'poo.
Until the late 1930s, women did not use shampoo. In fact, shampoo as we know it now wasn't even invented.
In fact! In 1908, the big craze was to rinse and wash your hair with soap – every two weeks – instead of every month, as most women did at the time.
But I look at these pictures of my ancestors and their beautiful hair and think, "Why? Why do WE need to shampoo every dang day, when their hair looked so thick and shiny and beautiful already?"
And, of course, it's just flat-out consumerism. Not to rant, but we've been sold throughout all of our lives that if we don't buy-buy-buy, we're gross and disgusting. (Bite me, marketing gurus. My great-grandma was hot, before you got all "oooh, you have to buy something to be hot.")
And Here's What Shampoo Does To Your Head
It strips the sebum – the natural oils your scalp produces – which tells your head to produce more oils. And this is why my hair gets oily 24 hours after washing with shampoo. Your scalp, "Oooh, girl! You blasted away all the oils! We must produce more and more, because THESE OILS ARE GOOD FOR YOUR HAIR!"
And, guess what, curlies? That's why you get frizzy. You don't allow those oils to coat the outer reaches of your hair, and you completely and totally nullify any chances that your body will take care of what's ailing you.
So here's the good news: I've read SEVERAL articles where dermatologists are really on board with the no 'poo movement. Sort of. I mean, they still have to sell us the consumerism idea, too, so what they say is that we really don't need to wash our hair more than once a week.
And they're on board with the no 'poo method I've decided to use, at least in terms of stating that "Well, it certainly can't hurt anything. And it kinda makes sense."
Guess that's something.
How I'm Going to No 'Poo
I've found a few different ways to live the no 'poo lifestyle – from not using anything at all and just wiping your hair with a washcloth (talk about no-impact) to using nothing but conditioner to using a mixture of cucumber and lemon juice as shampoo.
However, I am going to try the most widely spread and popular route first.
(This is unlike me. I'm usually a maverick. But I figure if I'm hopping on the bandwagon, I'd best do it the most bandwagony way possible – first.)
No 'Poo With Baking Soda and Apple Cider Vinegar
Three times a week, I am going to "shampoo" with a mixture of baking soda and water. The most recommended amount is 1 Tbsp baking soda to 1 C water. It also appears to be very important NOT to use more baking soda to water in the ratio.
How you shampoo with baking soda: Put the mixture in a bottle (and it sounds like a squirt bottle is most handy) and shake REALLY well before applying. After wetting your hair in the shower, apply the baking soda mixture to your scalp and rub in a circular motion all around – focusing on the scalp, not the rest of your hair. Rinse well.
Then, you "condition" the ends of your hair with a mixture of apple cider vinegar and water.
How you condition with ACV: Mix 2 Tbsp apple cider vinegar with 1-2 cups of water. Either just rinse the ends of your hair with the whole thing, or rinse your entire head with it. For now, I'm going to stick with the ends, because I've read that – especially in the beginning while your scalp is adjusting – too much ACV on your scalp could cause more overproducing of oils.
Here's What We Can Expect:
- Two weeks of wondering what the flipping crack we're doing, because our hair is overly greasy. This is okay. This is just like homemade deodorant. Our bodies have to readjust to the "normal" way of doing things. The scalp is going to overreact.
- Lots of "ponytail" and "hat" days for these first two weeks. No biggie. I wear a ponytail most days anyway.
- Increasingly better hair days after the initial breaking in period.
- Then, luxurious, beautiful hair we never knew we had – all along. It's kind of like the Wizard of Oz, only without flying monkeys.
- Contrary to popular belief, not using shampoo does not lead to stinky hair. I've heard no reports that indicate that a stink or funk or otherwise unpleasant odor has resulted from any heads that use this method (at least after the first few "breaking in" overly oily days)
MOST IMPORTANTLY: If you want to do this with me – or at some other point in your crunchy life – GIVE IT AT LEAST THREE WEEKS TO A MONTH BEFORE QUITTING. Every single "bad review" I've read about this method includes these words:
"I only tried it for three days, but I hated it."
Don't be that person. Just don't.
Want to Hop on the No 'Poo Train With Me?
First of all, how the heck did my hair get so long? (Maybe has something to do with not getting it cut for a year and a half. Hmmm.)
Secondly, this is me just after shampooing for the last time. This is my before picture. I let my hair air dry, to be fair and completely nonpartisan about either method. So my after picture will be an air dry, too. Usually, I straighten my hair to get that weird wave out and disappear the split ends a little.
If you want to do this with me, I'd LOVE to have partners in crime here.
In fact, take a before picture. Do the no 'poo with me for three weeks. Take another picture.
Send the pictures to me with your thoughts and results, and I'll include them in a blog post toward the middle of next month.
What say you?
Hair Picker? Hair Checker? Hair Apparent?
Good grief. What should we be called?

This hotel was right across the street from the mall and a short trip to BWI airport. The room we had was clean...at first glance but after looking around there were three stink bugs climbing the walls within minutes of setting our luggage down. Also the sink was plugged up and after much fight with it, we called for front desk for maintenance but that took about 30 mintues for them to get to us so we asked if we could switch rooms. Luckliy, they had another room ready on same floor so we packed everything up and moved down the hallway. Didn't have chance to use the shuttle service because the front desk said it was quite busy and needed about a 30/45 minute heads up. Other than that, the second room was clean and spacious.

How to guides
How to hang wallpaper in difficult places
You'll probably have started hanging your wallpaper on a straight wall without any obstacles. Sadly though, there's no way you can paper all the way around a room without meeting corners, door frames and fittings like light switches and sockets. But if you know the right techniques, you can still get a neat result and we will show you how.
Buying guides
Wallpapering tools buying guide
Wallpapering can sometimes be a more complex task than you might imagine, but having all the right tools will make it far simpler and the result much neater.
Types of tools
Paste brush
You can use any 100mm or 125mm paintbrush to apply paste, but a paste brush has a thicker wedge of soft bristles, which makes it easier to use.
Paper-hanging scissors
These scissors have extra-long blades that make it easier to cut your wallpaper in straight lines.
Wallpaper table (pasting table)
Higher than a kitchen table and just wider than a roll of wallpaper, this lightweight folding platform is perfect for measuring, cutting and pasting paper. W-leg tables are more stable than cheaper versions, but plastic ones are the sturdiest of all - as well as being the simplest to clean and store.
Plumb line/chalk line
Want to make sure you hang your wallpaper straight? Use a plumb line (a weight on the end of a string) to get a perfectly straight vertical line. And if you need to draw a straight edge on most surfaces, snap a chalk line.
Wallpaper scorer
When you soak wallpaper to prepare it for stripping, score the surface first with a rotary scorer as it helps the water to penetrate. Then just use a scraper to lift the paper off the wall.
Paper-hanging brush
The soft bristles on this brush are designed to smooth wallpaper by squeezing out any air bubbles and excess paste. Wash the bristles in warm water when you've finished to keep it fresh and usable.
Wallpaper steamer
Steaming is the fastest way to strip wallpaper. It makes good sense to buy a steamer when you have a lot of paper to strip, or need to do the job quickly.
Seam roller
Smooth the seams between lengths of wallpaper with this tiny roller - but make sure not to use it on embossed or fragile papers.
Combination smoother/cutter
After you've smoothed your wallpaper in place, simply cut around any obstructions with the retractable snap-off blade. But don't press too hard on fragile papers, or they might tear.

"RE: There's no need for this..."
Jim:Thanks for your contributions to this thread. With enough heads together, I'm sure we can help Bob.Agreed: faster shutter speed may quickly identify a vibration issue ... unless it is a focus issue as others have suggested.In Bob's initial post, he indicated he was shooting at 1/500 second, which is a bit slow if we believe in the 1/focal length rule of thumb for shutter speed.If I were going to take that configuration to a national park for some wildlife images, I would like to be able to shoot in low light situations, at maximum aperture when necessary, where faster shutter speeds are not possible. I would also like to shoot at base ISO and RAW format for maximum image quality. These conditions require a very stable platform and excellent long-lens technique.True confession time: I tend to overkill when faced with challenges like this. Thanks again for joining the discussion.Regards,HBB in Phoenix, ArizonaNikonian Team Member Photography is a journey with no conceivable destination.

An Incredible Miley Cyrus Song Called 'Nightmare' Has Arrived Out of Nowhere
A new Miley song has hit the Interwebz...and it's a stadium-sized break-up anthem.
A new Miley song has hit the Interwebz...and it's a stadium-sized break-up anthem.
Paul Feig's The Heat took a genre that has traditionally belonged to men — the buddy cop movie — and gave it a female twist. Feig's new movie, Spy, does much the same thing, this time for spy films, a world that has long been by, about, and for dudes and their power fantasies. Spy explicitly subverts the genre's typical gender dynamics by casting Melissa McCarthy as a lowly, desk-bound CIA analyst named Susan Cooper, who has spent her entire career in the shadow of a glamorous James Bond-esque spy (Jude Law) and then finally gets her opportunity to step into the spotlight and become a full-fledged field agent.

There's a lot to like about Avengers: Age of Ultron, but the coolest thing about it is the way it reclaims the comic book part of the phrase "comic-book movie." Rather than using these characters to do something "edgy" or "adult" or "important," or sanding down their quirkier edges to appeal to as broad and mainstream an audience as possible, Age of Ultron doubles down on its source material's geeky origins.
The name "Disney" brings to mind images of fair princesses, charming princes, magical fairy tales, and simple happily ever afters. In recent years, though, Disney has begun rethinking their classic properties, and releasing more thematically complex versions of their famous films. Sleeping Beauty became Maleficent, which turned a wicked witch into a sympathetic anti-hero; a whole mess of fairy tales turned into Into the Woods, where happily ever after preceded a whole bunch of death and tragedy. The ranks of Disney Princesses grew to include women like Merida, the bow-slinging heroine of Brave, and Anna and Else from Frozen, who rescued each other from an prince, rather than the other way around. Every value and concept that Disney had established and reinforced through decades of repetition was seemingly up for reconsideration and revision.
The technology in Neil Blomkamp's movies is so fully realized and intricately detailed that it feels like another one of his characters. Now Blomkamp's made Chappie, a film where that's literally true in the form of a police robot given the gift of human consciousness. The result is one giant metaphor for itself; a story of the world's first true artificial intelligence and how it is almost corrupted by violence, presented in a movie where any semblance of serious consideration of what it means to be alive is drowned out by gunfire, explosions, and macho posing.
It's been a decade since Will Smith was "Will Smith" onscreen. Sure, he's made movies in the last ten years; science-fiction pictures, dramas, comedies. He even played Satan, once. But none of them riffed on that classic Will Smith persona that everyone loves; the infectious charm, the seductive smile, the cocky but casual swagger. (What's that? Men in Black 3? No, they never made a third Men in Black. You must be confused.)
Christian Grey is an unusual guy. He's the world's most eligible billionaire bachelor and an enormously powerful businessman. He's an avid jogger, an exceptional piano player, and a licensed helicopter pilot. He also really like the color gray. He wears gray suits and ties, drives a gray car to his gray office building (which is called Grey House) under gray Seattle skies, where his assistant dresses in—you guessed it—gray. (For the record, his office chairs are white but the couches are gray too.) And, oh yeah, he's into kinky sex, including bondage, spanking, and domination.
Episode 415 of 'Seinfeld' was called "The Movie," and it ended with Jerry delivering a monologue about the guy in every group of friends who can't follow the plots of films and invariably spends them whispering confused questions to their seatmates ("Why did they kill that guy? I thought he was with them? Wasn't he with them? Why would they kill him if he was with them? Oh, he wasn't with them. It's a good thing they killed him!") 'Jupiter Ascending' turned me into that guy. If you can explain the plot of this baffling movie in all of its intricacies, you are either a genius or one of the Wachowskis who wrote and directed it. It's hard to believe that a movie that contains this much exposition could also be this confusing, but it does and it is. Something went horribly wrong here.
Woe be unto humanity if teenagers discover time travel. That's the main takeaway from the entertaining new found-footage thriller 'Project Almanac,' in which a quintet of adolescents find a time machine, and do exactly what a bunch of adolescents would do if they found a time machine: Party, prank, and screw around with no thought to the consequences of their actions. These kids know and cite 'Looper' and 'The Terminator,' but the movie they should have paid attention to was 'The Butterfly Effect,' because they seem caught off-guard when their innocent misadventures in the timestream begin to ripple out in dangerous ways.

The view was very good, just slightly obstructed by railing bars over the entrance way below us. I was hoping for an aisle seat, because I am 6'5" with very bad knees, and I had to turn my body about 90 degrees so my legs were in my grandsons legroom. Maybe allowing this type of request in the future would be advantageous and helpful to individuals like myself.
