To reduce from civilization to a savage state.
To become less civilized."
"Civilised life, you know, is based on a huge number of illusions in which we all collaborate willingly. The trouble is we forget after a while that they are illusions and we are deeply shocked when reality is torn down around us." - J.G. Ballard
"Every man has a wild beast within him." - Frederick the Great
As technology and society advance, mankind's true nature becomes more repressed and sanitized. We find ourselves funneled through modern life amidst a maze of increasingly confined velvet ropes, yet we are truly more lost and directionless than ever. As our autonomy diminishes, how long until words such as 'mystery', 'discovery', 'exploration', and 'freedom' fade from our consciousness altogether?
There remains only one question...
Are you ready to DECIVILIZE?

Crisp pizzas and flatbreads or roast vegetables on this soapstone pizza stone. Handcrafted in Brazil with a copper handles. The heavyweight stone has a timeless aesthetic that will last for years. Covered Pot also available. (
Handcrafted from the finest quality Brazilian soapstone, this soapstone pizza stone combines the raw beauty of natural stone with a clean, modern design. The mineral composition of each soapstone varies slightly, resulting in diverse veining, speckling, and coloration that makes each piece of cookware truly unique. The copper ring that circles the pizza stone has sturdy copper handles, adding a warm tone to the deep gray shade of the soapstone, which will darken to near-black once the stone is seasoned. This pizza stone will perfectly crisp pizzas and flatbreads, and can also be used to make roasted vegetables, crackers, breads, quesadillas, and more. The striking design easily transitions from oven to table.
Soapstone cookware has been used for centuries, dating all the way back to the Stone Age. Touted for both its versatility and beauty, early civilizations discovered that the material made an ideal cooking surface due to the extraordinary heat conducting properties it contained. Stoneware has the ability to retain heat twice as long as traditional metal cookware. These characteristics make soapstone gentle on the environment, as less energy is required to heat the cookware through and keep it hot. Stoneware also allows for food to be cooked more integrally than other types of cookware, retaining the taste, texture, and nutrients in each ingredient. Soapstone is bacteria-resistant and naturally non-stick, making it a healthy choice for those who cook with little to no oil.
Soapstone is a low-maintenance material that requires an initial treatment and then very little care after that. This pizza stone is designed only for use in the oven, not on the stovetop. Stovetop use can crack the pizza stone.
Initial treatment: Place the pizza stone in a 180°C/356°F oven for 15 minutes to dry off the natural moisture of the stone and prep it to receive an oil treatment. Remove the pizza stone from the oven, taking care to not place it on a cold surface. Grease the entire surface of the pizza stone with seed oil or hydrogenated vegetable fat. Place the pizza stone back in the 180°C/356°F oven for one hour then let it cool to room temperature. Once completely cool, wash the pizza stone to remove any excess oil.
The initial treatment will not only ready the pizza stone for use, but also darken it from gray to light black.
The soapstone pizza stone can be washed by hand or in the dishwasher. Cracking or breaking can be prevented by not exposing your pizza stone to thermal shock, which happens when a hot stone is placed on a cold surface. Always heat the pizza stone slowly on a low temperature and then allow it to cool completely before washing or placing it on a cold surface. Small scratches can easily be removed with regular sandpaper or a dab of oil.
Soapstone cookware is suitable for use on gas and electric stovetops.
This soapstone pizza stone was handcrafted by Cookstone, a Brazilian maker. The raw materials for the cookware are sourced directly from Brazilian mines; often the pieces chosen are remnants from larger blocks in order to reduce resource waste. Each pizza stone is formed from a piece of soapstone that a highly skilled craftsperson turns on a horizontal mechanical lathe. Once shaped, the cookware is then passed on to another artisan who fits and applies the copper detailing and handles. This process allows for customization in size and finish, while highlighting the unique nature of each piece of cookware.

Practice areas & skills: Mediation, Litigation, Insurance
The mediation process can help you resolve disputes without going to court. In a mediation proceeding, a neutral third party (a mediation lawyer or mediator) meets with you and the person you disagree with. Mediators are trained to find mediation solutions in legal disputes, including divorce mediation and business disagreement mediation. The mediator acts as a facilitator, helping you negotiate until a solution is found. Mediation is the most informal process for dispute resolution and is usually the least expensive method. The drawback is that, unlike an arbitrator in arbitration, the mediator does not make a final decision. So, unless the parties agree and enter into a settlement agreement, the mediation can end without the dispute being solved.

Filmmaker brings documentary with local ties to Animal Film Festival in Grass Valley
February 27, 2014
Know & Go
What: "Turlock"
When: 5:25 p.m.
Where: The Center for the Arts, 314 W. Main St.
Information: http://www.animalfilmfestival.org
Filmmaker Keegan Kuhn, founder of First Spark Media based in El Cerrito, has been involved in social justice media for 10 years.
He began working with Animal Place, a farmed animal sanctuary in Grass Valley, to make videos highlighting animal rescues. According to Kuhn, the sanctuary has been involved in the rescue of 12,000 animals.
Animal Place is "far and away the best of almost any organization I have worked with. It's a phenomenal organization that has flown under the radar," said Kuhn.
In February 2012, Kuhn received a call from a sanctuary staff member and was first to arrive at A&L Poultry in Turlock.
He not only spent time behind the camera, but also helped Animal Place staff and volunteers to rescue more than 4,400 chickens.
"It was difficult to balance documenting and wanting to help with the rescue," he said.
At times, "I had my arms full of chickens."
For Kuhn, the experience was "monumental … to have it in my face, to hold an animal that's dying. It made (the issues) real."
His efforts resulted in "Turlock," a documentary which will be shown at Saturday's inaugural Animal Film Festival in Grass Valley.
Kuhn will be available for questions during the festival.
The film festival will mark the last time this incarnation of the documentary will be shown.
Kuhn has been working on an extended version, which will premiere March 13 at The Guild Theater in Sacramento.
Kuhn is currently co-directing an environmental film titled "Cowspiracy: The Sustainability Secret."

We raised cattle for 40 years. What would go with steak? A burgeoning industry was right under our noses and we began winemaking, the first and thus oldest winery in Montgomery County. Visits to wineries in Illinois in 2000, helped education, vineyard managers and winemakers giving valuable time and information. We refreshed old memories of chemistry, and planted grapes. Our children, friends and neighbors joined us in picking by hand, and are still with us since 2003. February 2, 2008, we opened. The winery was packed with those feisty individuals who came by the previous summers to see the building going up, only to be dragged, kicking and screaming, into the winery to taste the wines and give us an opinion. We listened. Now visitors walk the vineyards to compare the grapes with the wine in their glass. Wine tastings are offered without charge. We are open year-round Friday through Sunday. Both indoor and outdoor seating is available for over 200. Today, we produce 5000 gallons of wine from grapes, and we encourage wine education from both sides of the tasting room table. Come join us!

A #1 national bestseller—"A yarn so packed with suspense, romance, literary reference, fascinating miscellaneous knowledge, and heart that only Stephen King could have written it. Marvelous—that is, full of marvels" (Booklist).
Since his wife died, Ralph Roberts has been having trouble sleeping. Each night he wakes up a bit earlier, until he's barely sleeping at all. During his late night walks, he observes some strange things going on in Derry, Maine. He sees colored ribbons streaming from people's heads, two strange little men wandering around town after dark, and more. He begins to suspect that these visions are something more than hallucinations brought on by lack of sleep.
There's a definite mean streak running through this small New England city; underneath its ordinary surface awesome and terrifying forces are at work. The dying has been going on in Derry for a long, long time. Now Ralph is part of it…and lack of sleep is the least of his worries.
Returning to the same Maine town where It took place, a town that has haunted Stephen King for decades, Insomnia blends King's trademark bone-chilling realism with supernatural terror to create yet another masterpiece of suspense.

text: 000 FXUS65 KBYZ 152153 AFDBYZ Area Forecast Discussion National Weather Service Billings MT 353 PM MDT Sat Oct 15 2016 .SHORT TERM...valid for Sun and Mon... Upper-level jet departing to the northeast this afternoon. Cooler than forecast temps over the Park has led to increased drainage winds around Livingston with winds briefly touch 40 mph this afternoon. Shortwave energy arrives at the southwest mountains Sunday morning. Shower chances decrease further east over the Plains, but expecting slight chance PoPs to extend from the foothills eastward to Forsyth during the afternoon. Main weather concern is gusty winds developing through the Paradise Valley during the morning hours tomorrow. Current thinking is wind gusts around 50 mph will be the max in the Livingston area. Drainage gap flow will be aided by dynamics as upper-level low approaches from the southwest. Models indicate enough capping above the ridgetop to force some of the 700 mb winds down through the gap especially during the early morning hours when drainage is going to be optimal. Looks like some mixing will bring the threat of 40-50 mph from the Livingston northeast to Harlowton and possibly as far east as Roundup during the afternoon. Another upper-level impulse is progged to slide through on Monday bringing another chance for showers mainly west of a line from Sheridan to Billings to Roundup. Walsh .LONG TERM...valid for Tue...Wed...Thu...Fri...Sat... A shortwave trough will move over the area Tuesday and Wednesday. Precipitation chances should remain mainly over the higher terrain and in the lower elevations west of Billings on Tuesday. Then precip. chances should expand eastward over the plains Tue. night and Wednesday. Temperatures should be low enough for light snow over the mountains, but only a rain/snow mix at night in the lower elevations west of Billings. The forcing with this system appears weak, so am only expecting light precipitation amounts. Upper-level anticyclonic flow builds over the region for Thursday through Saturday. This pattern should yield largely dry weather for the region. Surface pressure gradient is expected to increase over the southwestern portion of our CWA beginning Thursday morning as high pressure builds over western Wyoming and lee troughing develops east of the mountains. This gradient should remain in place through Saturday, likely causing windy conditions in the gap flow areas (i.e. near Livingston). Temperatures should largely be near seasonal normals Tue-Sat. RMS/Borsum && .AVIATION... Winds increasing overnight becoming strong along the foothills and favored locations in the river valleys including KLVM. Winds spread into the plains during the day on Sunday behind a cold front. Showers will develop over the mountains this evening and spread eastward later tonight. Mountain obscurations expected with brief MVFR conditions possible in lower elevations in the heavier showers. borsum && .PRELIMINARY POINT TEMP/POPS...

Gregory Crouch on China's Wings
The seed that became China's Wings was planted by Charlie Fowler, one of my climbing partners in Enduring Patagonia, the book I'd written about my mountain adventures in that extreme land. Charlie's other adventuring obsession was unclimbed peaks in Central Asia, and back from explorations along the Tibet/China frontier in early 2002, Charlie sent me an email: "Greg, I keep hearing stories of these old World War II American plane wrecks in the Eastern Himalaya. You're a military history guy and a mountaineer; you should spark up a story on that."
I recognized the genesis of a good idea, and as a lifetime WWII history buff, I guessed those wrecks were probably relics of the airlift from India to China the United States prosecuted over the mountains dropping down the border between Burma and China's Yunnan province--the infamous "Hump." However, I was in Oman on a National Geographic assignment at the time. I didn't get around to pursuing Charlie's lead until months later.
When I did, "flying the Hump" web searches quickly ran across the cnac.org website--an enthusiast's collection of stories, events, and people related to the China National Aviation Corporation (CNAC), a civil airline partnership between Pan American Airways and the Nationalist Chinese government of Chiang Kai-shek that flew and fought in China from 1929-1949. I knew many of the tales orbiting CNAC's story--among them Pan Am's pioneering transpacific flights, the Flying Tigers, and the Hump airlift--but I'd never heard of the airline that seemed to have played such a pivotal role in those events.
I stumbled across the website's reunions page and noticed that CNAC had a reunion scheduled only three weeks later, and that it was in San Francisco, less than twenty miles from my desk. Tentatively, I picked up the telephone and called CNAC Association President Bill Maher, one of the airline's Hump pilots. I introduced myself, explained that I wanted to explore the possibility of writing a book about his airline, and asked if I could attend the reunion. "Hell yes!" Bill thundered. "Come on over. We've got great stories."
I attended, and Bill was right. He and his flying band of brothers oozed fascinating stories and outrageous adventures played out against the desperate background of the war in Asia. I was hooked. Driving away from the reunion three days later, I was physically shaking, convinced I'd discovered an untold, compelling, and significant story--one I was meant to tell.
I never did succeed in mounting an expedition to visit a World War II plane wreck in the remote mountains of Asia--although I still hold out hope that someday I might--but the years of research that followed proved the story of the China National Aviation Corporation to be richer, deeper, and more historically significant than I'd dared hope; and in William Langhorne Bond, the steady, mannerly, but sharp-elbowed Virginian whose endeavors did so much to propel the airline through two trying decades, I'd discovered the perfect protagonist to carry the story. I spent dozens of hours with Moon Fun Chin, a remarkable man born in an obscure South China village in 1913 who began flying for CNAC in the early 1930s, piloted the last evacuation flights from Hankow in 1938 and Hong Kong in December, 1941, amassed many thousands of flying hours with the company through its years on the Hump (including taking Tokyo raider Jimmy Doolittle out of China in 1942), and ended up owning his own airline after the war. Through contemporary letters, books, articles, and interviews, China's Wings took me through the breathtaking, deadly Yangtze Gorges in the early 1930s, provided an inside account of the development of Pan American's groundbreaking transpacific route, bore witness to the utter destruction of Shanghai in a colossal--and largely forgotten--battle fought after the Japanese invaded China in 1937, and to mind-boggling mechanical improvisations, the mass evacuations of cities like Hankow and Hong Kong as they fell to the invaders, pivotal meetings in the boardrooms of Pan American Airways and the corridors of power in Washington, DC, and tense, fear-choked moments in cockpits over the Hump. The story of William Bond and the China National Aviation Corporation proved the perfect lens through which to experience the U.S. relationship with China during the crux decades of the Twentieth Century.
Sadly, neither Bill Maher nor Charlie Fowler can enjoy the fruits of their assistance; Bill Maher passed away in the summer of 2011, and Charlie was killed by an avalanche in China in 2006. I will always be grateful to them for their friendship and for this story.
Advance praise for China's Wings
"Too many people think the war in the Pacific began with Japan's sudden strike on Hawaii, launched seemingly out of nowhere. Crouch's vividly written book explains how America's business interests in 1930s China set it on the path to Pearl Harbor. This is the rousing story of the enterprising Pan Am pilots who built a frontier airline and went on to become aviation heroes, flying over the Himalayas, helping save China, and thereby transforming the world."—James D. Hornfischer, New York Times bestselling author of The Last Stand of the Tin Can Sailors and Neptune's Inferno
"Dramatically rendered."—Kirkus Reviews
"In China's Wings, Gregory Crouch recalls the remarkable encounter between an ancient civilization and the most modern technology in the world, as intrepid Americans and their Chinese partners struggled to establish a sophisticated air network over a vast land that barely knew electricity. This gripping book will transport you to a fascinating lost time."—James Bradley, #1 New York Times bestselling author of Flags of Our Fathers and The Imperial Cruise
"West Point grad Crouch brings us a story that's part adventure, part unearthed history [and] not just for history buffs."—Library Journal

North American unit for Honda relocates from Torrance to Ohio
Honda, Japan's first automaker to build cars in the U.S., is consolidating corporate operations for North America in Ohio and also setting up a new unit there to provide regional support.
Honda North America, now based in Torrance, moves to Marysville, Ohio, effective April 1, the company said Friday. About 50 employees, including senior executives from Torrance, will relocate to Marysville as a result, said Jeffrey Smith, a spokesman for the Tokyo-based carmaker. Torrance will remain Honda's U.S. sales and marketing base, he said.
"Honda has been giving North America more and more responsibility for designing and developing vehicles, and this is part of that," said Michael Robinet, managing director of IHS Automotive. "It's certainly a move to improve efficiency since you'll have the people responsible for product development, engineering and manufacturing all in one place."
Honda, Japan's third-largest automaker, counts North America as its biggest global market and largest source of profit and sales. The Marysville factory was the first Japanese auto-assembly plant in the U.S., beginning in 1982.

Online media studies program to be offered by ASU's Cronkite School
Arizona State University's Walter Cronkite School of Journalism and Mass Communication announced Friday that it would be extending its educational reach to the digital realm.
In an online press release, the school revealed that a new online Bachelor of Arts degree program in media studies will be available for students to take starting next fall.
"This innovative program provides a new option for students who want and need the flexibility offered by a fully online program," Cronkite Dean Christopher Callahan said in the press released. "It will enable students around the world to take advantage of the world-class education offered by the Cronkite School and ASU, giving a broad-based liberal arts education with a focus on mass communication and media studies."
Students in the program will still be required to complete ASU's general education requirement, but will also have to take a core media and society class along with a media studies-based elective (International Mass Communication, Political Communication, Sports and Media and Visual Communication are just a few of the available options).
The program includes a star-studded cast of faculty members in the field of media studies, including Pulitzer Prize-winning journalist Stephen Doig, who formerly wrote for the Miami Herald.

According to a report from Brazil's UOL Esporte, UFC featherweight champion Jose Aldo (21-1 MMA, 3-0 UFC) was involved in a weekend traffic accident but walked away relatively unscathed.
The UFC 153 headliner was reportedly traveling by motorcycle in Rio de Janeiro when he was struck by a passing car.
Fortunately for the champion (and UFC executives), Aldo walked away from the minor incident with only a few minor scratches and bruises, and the episode is not expected to impact his upcoming contest with former UFC lightweight champion Frankie Edgar (14-3-1 MMA, 9-3-1 UFC).
UFC officials were not immediately available for comment when contacted by MMAjunkie.com. However, Brazilian outlet Tatame later confirmed UOL Esporte's initial report.
"Yes, I had a motorcycle accident, but it was no big deal," Aldo told UOL Esporte's Mauricio Deho in his native Portuguese. "No, there's no problem (about fighting Oct. 13). I'm going to the gym right now."
"UFC 153: Aldo vs. Edgar," takes place Oct. 13 at HSBC Arena in Rio de Janeiro. The evening's five-fight main card airs on pay-per-view.
Aldo enters UFC 153 with a 14-fight win streak. Since ruling World Extreme Cagefighting's 145-pound division and moving over to the fellow Zuffa-owned UFC as the promotion's first-ever featherweight champion, the Brazilian phenom has scored successful title defenses over Chad Mendes, Kenny Florian and Mark Hominick. Overall, Aldo is a remarkable 11-0 under the Zuffa banner.

"The Walking Dead" returns on Sunday, February 9th, and while we still don't know the title and synopsis of Episode 4.09, we have a new trailer to share. The ep was written by Robert Kirkman and directed by Greg Nicotero so we expect lots of turmoil and action!
Based on the comic book series written by Robert Kirkman and published by Image Comics, "The Walking Dead" stars Andrew Lincoln, Norman Reedus, Steven Yeun, Lauren Cohan, Chandler Riggs, Emily Kinney, Danai Gurira, Chad Coleman, and Sonequa Martin-Green. The series is executive produced by Scott M. Gimple, Robert Kirkman, Gale Anne Hurd, David Alpert, Tom Luse, and Greg Nicotero.
Following the devastating events of the mid-season finale, Rick and the group are still reeling from the loss of their home, family, and friends. With the destruction of the prison, we see the group of survivors broken apart and sent on divergent paths, unsure of everyone else's fate. What was a challenging life behind fences and walls grows that much more perilous and precious as they are exposed to new dangers, new enemies, and heartbreaking choices. They will have their faith thoroughly tested — a faith that breaks some of them and redeems others.
The Walking Dead: Season 4 – Mid-Season Return… by dreadcentral
